Housing

San Antonio College does not offer on-campus housing. International students are responsible for making their own living arrangements. Housing generally needs to be arranged after a student has arrived in San Antonio. It is recommended students arrive in San Antonio at least 4 weeks before the start of classes in order to find suitable living accommodations and to make the necessary rental and transportation arrangements.

You are strongly advised to purchase a comprehensive health care plan that covers preventive care such as routine exams.

For questions about the health care plans, you should contact the insurance company.
