Overview
Most MBBS students in Ukraine live in university dormitories for at least Year 1 — and many stay for all 6 years because the combination of security, convenience and cost makes sense. Dormitory accommodation ranges from $50–150/month including utilities.
International medical students are typically housed together in dedicated dormitory blocks or floors. This means instant community, study groups, and the support of students a year or two ahead of you.
Tip from senior medical students: book your dormitory room before you arrive and bring a portable kettle, some comfort food from home, and thick winter clothing. The dormitory rooms are functional but basic — the things you bring make the difference.
