Student life and support
Humber Polytechnic
On-campus student residence is available at Humber North Campus and is strongly recommended for first-year nursing students to simplify the arrival transition. Off-campus shared apartments in Etobicoke, Brampton, and Mississauga are the most popular choice among Indian nursing students — shared 2 or 3-bedroom apartments typically cost CAD 800–1,300 per person per month. On-campus residence including a meal plan costs CAD 1,100–1,600/month. Both options are within TTC transit reach of the campus and clinical placement sites. Woodbine Mall, Walmart, Costco, and Indian grocery stores are accessible from the campus area.
Humber's International Centre provides comprehensive support: academic advising, immigration guidance, settlement support, and financial aid information. IGNITE (Humber's student union) supports Indian student associations and cultural clubs. Peer mentoring from senior Indian nursing students is informal but widely available. Formal orientation programmes run before the first semester. Mental health and counselling services are included at no additional cost. Students Traffic provides end-to-end support: eligibility assessment, IELTS guidance, ICAS/WES credential evaluation, complete Humber Web Application management, PAL coordination, GIC setup, study permit documentation, SOP writing, biometrics support, arrival preparation, and Year 1 ongoing support.
Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (LSMU)
LSMU operates university dormitories close to the main campus, with monthly costs of EUR 70–200 per person — the most affordable accommodation option in Kaunas and among the cheapest in any EU capital region. Dormitories are renovated and equipped with necessary furniture; bus and trolleybus stops, shops, and daily facilities are nearby. For students preferring private accommodation, shared apartments in Kaunas range from EUR 150–300 per person per month. LSMU's international office and student support services provide accommodation guidance for incoming students. Students Traffic provides a pre-arrival Kaunas accommodation guide and connects new students with existing Indian students at LSMU before departure.
