Although every attempt will be made to match each student's preferences with our housing options, roommate and housing assignments are based upon availability and other factors. Therefore, your housing preferences cannot be guaranteed. We encourage you to apply early as it will assist us in organizing your housing arrangements.
Shared Apartments
CEA students will live in purpose built university villages in Galway. These apartment
complexes are set in a prime location just a short distance of downtown Galway and
approximately a 15-20 minute walk from the National University of Ireland, Galway. Set in
beautifully landscaped areas, the apartments are conveniently located close to Eyre Square
which boasts a great selection of restaurants, cafes and pubs. There is no meal plan with
this housing option; however, each apartment contains a fully equipped kitchen. These
apartments are the perfect environment for making new friends and provide a relaxed yet
secure atmosphere.
Homestays (Irish Language & Culture Program Only)
CEA students participating in the Irish Language & Culture program during the summer will live in Irish homestays in An Cheathrú Rua in Connemara, the heart of Irish Gaelic speaking Ireland. An Cheathrú Rua is located about 30 minutes outside of Galway City. Accommodation will be provided in modern private houses with friendly Irish speaking families; for students who have some knowledge of Irish it will be possible to stay in a house in which only Irish is spoken.

Independent Living
CEA highly recommends that students live in the housing provided. Requests for permission to arrange independent housing must be made on the online housing or paper application form as determined by your program no later than the application closure date. For academic year students, requests for permission to arrange independent living arrangements for the second semester must be made no later than the second semester's application closure date. Students whose requests are approved will receive a rebate for housing. CEA resident directors will not provide assistance with independent housing and will not speak or act on behalf of any student who chooses to pursue such arrangements. Rebates are not granted for students who move out of their CEA housing or choose to pursue independent living arrangements after the application closure date.
