Private Housing
For those who are not entitled to/assigned accommodation in the student residence hall (regular international students, guest students) it is necessary to look for alternatives such as private rental accommodation. Rents vary greatly according to location, room size, facility etc. Overhead expenses are sometimes included in the price, and sometimes are paid by the consumer. Payment is usually expected at the beginning of the month, while some landlords request payment for several months in advance.

Student Hostels
If you prefer private accommodation and would like to live in a rented flat, before choosing a nice one, you might want to spend some time in a hostel. Therefore, we suggest youth hostels.
LOCAL TRANSPORTATION
Public Transportation
There are three ways of public transportation - trams, buses and city railway. They operate all day (every few minutes) and night (every hour). Tickets can be bought on board (10 kn) or at newsstands (8 kn). Make sure that you stamp your ticket once you board: an unstamped ticket is as good as no ticket at all! Daily tickets are available at a price of 25 kn. Monthly or annual tickets can also be bought in ZET (Zagreb Electric Tram) offices at a reduced price (www.zet.hr). For a monthly/annual ticket you will need to fill in a ZET-form, stamp it at the faculty/academy you enrol. Then you will go to the central office of the Zagreb Electric Trams in Ozaljska 105, HR-10000 Zagreb – end tram station called LJUBLJANICA. There you will purchase a pass (30 kn, app. 4€ + photo) and every month you will buy a ticket for 83kn, app. 11€. This monthly ticket enables you to use all buses and trams in the area of the city of Zagreb.
Taxis
Taxis are quite expensive in Zagreb. You can find them in front of all major hotels, the train and bus stations and at numerous other central locations, or you can call a taxi: tel. 970.
FOOD & DRINK
Student Restaurants
There are 12 student restaurants, so-called „mensas“, dispersed all over the city at faculties and student residence halls. Every student must have a student identity card (“iksica”) in order to get meals at a reduced price. Before leaving the restaurant, a student must show his/her “iksica” to a cashier and pay for the meal.
Student Identity Card – “X-Ica”
Regular students of the University of Zagreb are entitled to a student card, so-called " iksica". The card enables you to have subsidised meals, entrance to libraries and other University premises, discount at some cultural institutions and shops, etc.
