Finding appropriate accommodations can always be a bit challenging. Most College students rent a room in a Fredericton apartment or house with other students, and share kitchen facilities.
If you decide to rent temporary lodging at first while searching for more permanent accommodations, arrive at least two weeks before classes begin.
Keep in mind that quite often, homeowners and rental agencies usually do not make housing arrangements by mail, email or by telephone. Here are some places you can start looking:
Fredericton International Hostel (aka Rosary Hall) provides short or long-term accommodations, for more details:
