EHESP residences
EHESP has a few places available in its hotel residences, particularly if you need accommodation while you look for a more permanent home.
Some rooms are available on the campus specifically for international students, but you should be aware that this is a temporary solution. Indeed, according to EHESP’s policy, accommodations on the campus are only available when the students are in class. It means that, when classes are finished (even if you are doing an internship for instance), you are supposed to leave the rooms. Further information will be provided in your registration package.

Find housing on your own
Don’t limit your search to the city centre – Rennes’s public transport is working really well. Focus on finding a place for the start of the semester, you can always move closer to campus later.
Rennes’s housing market it quite competitive, so be prepared to put some time into searching for a place to stay. Finding housing on the private market may be tedious and time consuming, but almost everyone finds a place to stay after a while!
