06 ACCOMODATION 6.1 ACCOMODATION In cities like Barcelona, it is advisable to look for accommodation four months before arriving in Spain, so that you can guarantee a place for the whole school year. If for any reason the student cannot find accommodation, or decides to do it once in Barcelona, we suggest looking for a place at least 20 days in advance, before the start of the program. It is important to point out that renting a place in the outlying areas of Barcelona is cheaper and has the advantage of all means of transport like metro, train and buses.
