Istanbul Municipality Extends Dormitory Services for Students Through Summer

Istanbul's Metropolitan Municipality (İBB) is extending its student dormitory services beyond the academic year, ensuring that young people in the city have a place to stay during the summer months. Seven İBB-run higher education dormitories are operating at full capacity, providing essential accommodation for around 2,000 students.

These students are in Istanbul for various reasons, including internships, summer school programs, make-up exams, and graduation ceremonies. The İBB's commitment to keeping these facilities open demonstrates a dedication to supporting students' continued academic and professional pursuits throughout the year.

The initiative, which will continue into the 2025-2026 academic year, highlights the municipality's focus on student welfare. By offering these services, İBB aims to alleviate the burden of finding affordable and secure housing for students who need to remain in the city during breaks or for specific academic requirements.
