Looking for housing near Sorbonne University? You are not doing this alone.

How international students find their home near Sorbonne University without the stress.

Finding student accommodation near Sorbonne Université on your own is no small feat, especially when you have never set foot in Paris before. The Paris rental market is one of the most competitive in the world: sky-high demand, listings that vanish within hours, and a mountain of paperwork that can feel completely foreign when you are navigating it from thousands of kilometres away!

And with over 8 campuses spread across the city, knowing where to even start your search can feel overwhelming before you have ever seen a Paris metro map.

That is exactly why Sorbonne University chose Studapart. Through this partnership, you get access to a private platform with verified listings around every single one of your campuses: studios, flatshares, homestays and partner residences, all bookable online. And if your landlord asks for a French guarantor you simply do not have, the Studapart Guarantee has you covered.

Virtual viewings, secure payment, exclusive listings unlocked with your Sorbonne University student email address... whether you are heading to Jussieu, Clignancourt, les Cordeliers or the Sorbonne itself, everything is sorted in just a few clicks, before you even board your flight.

Questions fréquentes

Which Paris districts are within a 20-minute walk from Sorbonne University?

If walking to campus every morning sounds like your ideal start to the day, the 5th and 6th arrondissements are your best bet. These two districts are home to the highest concentration of Sorbonne University campuses and institutes, all reachable on foot without ever needing to open a metro app.

The 4th, 2nd and 14th arrondissements are also walkable in around 10 to 20 minutes, depending on your exact address. A great option if you want to be close to campus without paying the premium prices of the 5th and 6th.

Further out, campuses like Clignancourt (18th), Malesherbes (17th), Pitié-Salpêtrière (13th) or Saint-Antoine (12th) will require a metro ride. But do not worry: on the Studapart x Sorbonne University platform, our interactive map calculates your exact commute time from any listing to your specific campus, so you always know exactly what you are signing up for before you book!

Should I go for a studio, a flatshare or a chambre de bonne when living near Sorbonne University?

It all comes down to your budget and how you like to live. The Studapart 2025 Rent Barometer gives a clear picture:

  • Flatsharing (€795/month on average): the most affordable way to live close to the 5th and 6th arrondissement campuses, and a great way to build your social circle in a city where you may not know anyone yet.
  • A studio (€974/month on average): the right pick if you value your independence and need a quiet space entirely your own to study and recharge. Best suited if you are working with a solid budget.
  • A chambre de bonne: typically the most budget-friendly option in the most central Paris districts. Compact in size, unbeatable in location. A classic Paris experience that many international students actually love!

Not sure which one is right for you? On the Studapart x Sorbonne University platform, you can compare all three options side by side on our interactive map and find the one that fits your life in Paris!

What type of accommodation should I choose as a student at Sorbonne University?

It all depends on your budget and lifestyle. Here is an honest breakdown of your main options as an international student in Paris:

  • Crous housing: the most affordable option if you are eligible for a French government grant. A word of warning though: spots near Sorbonne campuses are extremely limited and competition is fierce. If you think you qualify, apply as early as humanly possible.
  • A student residence: the ultimate hassle-free option, and our top recommendation if you are moving to Paris from abroad. Bills included, on-site services, and a ready-made community from day one. No unpleasant surprises on your first month in France!
  • A studio: perfect if you need a quiet space entirely your own to study and recharge. Budget around €974/month on average in Paris, according to the Studapart 2025 Rent Barometer.
  • Flatsharing: the smartest value-for-money option in Paris. A room costs €795 /month on average, letting you stay close to Sorbonne campuses without stretching your budget to its limits. And arriving in a city where you know nobody? Flatsharing solves that too!

Student residences, studios and flatshares are all available with verified listings on the Studapart x Sorbonne University platform. Whatever your budget or lifestyle, your home in Paris is just a few clicks away!

Why should I book my student accommodation through Studapart rather than directly with a landlord?

Booking through the Studapart x Sorbonne University platform means every single step of your search is taken care of, even from the other side of the world:

  • Verified listings: every listing is checked and controlled before it goes live. No nasty surprises when you turn the key for the first time.
  • An interactive map: see exactly how far any listing is from your specific Sorbonne campus and calculate your commute time in seconds. No guesswork, no wrong neighbourhood.
  • Full remote booking: rental application, landlord messaging, contract signing, payment... everything is handled online, in English, from wherever you are in the world.
  • The Studapart Guarantee and cancellation insurance: if a listing turns out to be nothing like described, or your plans change at the last minute, we rehouse you. Simple as that.
  • Exclusive listings: accessible only through your Sorbonne University student email address. You get access to housing that simply is not available anywhere else.
  • A real human team: our team is there before, during and after your booking. Not a chatbot, not an automated reply. Actual people who understand what it means to move to Paris from abroad!

Once you experience how straightforward finding housing in Paris can actually be, you will never want to do it any other way!
