Discover the best flexible rental offers on Europe's leading online platform for temporary accommodation
Università degli Studi di Roma "Tor Vergata" was founded in 1982 as Rome's second public university and has grown into one of Italy's most research-intensive institutions, ranked among the top three in the country for medicine and engineering. The 600-hectare campus in the south-east of Rome — between Via Cracovia, Via Orazio Raimondo and the GRA ring road — hosts more than 32,000 students, the Tor Vergata Polyclinic and major European research centres for physics and economics. Programmes span medicine, engineering, economics, sciences, humanities and law, with growing English-taught tracks at every level.

Together these four districts list more than +450 properties on Spotahome, all of them fully furnished and ready to live in from the day you arrive in Rome.
Tor Vergata welcomes more than 1,500 incoming exchange students each year through its International Office, with bilateral agreements that connect the university with hundreds of European, Asian and American partners. Daily life on campus is anchored by the central library, the sports centre and the Polyclinic, while the Cinecittà studios and the historic Castelli Romani sit just south of the GRA. Many international students settle in Tuscolano or Pigneto because both districts combine fast metro links to the campus with the nightlife of central Rome.
The campus stretches across Via Cracovia, Via Orazio Raimondo and Via Montpellier:
The most student-friendly options near the south-east campus are:
For walking distance to class, Torrenova and Torre Angela lead the way. For balance between commute and city life, Tuscolano or Pigneto.
Here are the price ranges across Torrenova, Torre Angela, Tuscolano and Prenestino-Labicano, based on the Spotahome Rent Index 2026:
| Accommodation type | Average price | Properties |
|---|---|---|
| Room in a shared flat | 400 € - 650 € | 293 |
| Studio | 863 € - 1,400 € | 60 |
| Whole apartment | 1,565 € - 2,000 € | 138 |
The most popular option for Tor Vergata students is a room in a shared flat: nearly 300 listings with an average price of around 590 €/month and bills often included — the cheapest student rents in Rome.
Start three to four months ahead of the term. Tor Vergata's MD admissions exam in early September and the engineering placements drive demand on the south-east axis, so booking by June for the autumn term and November for spring keeps the widest choice in Torrenova and Torre Angela open.
Every property on Spotahome goes through a verification process before publication, so the photos and floor plans match the actual flat. If anything doesn't match the listing on arrival, report it within twenty-four hours and the team will help with mediation, relocation or another solution.
The deposit is set by the landlord, usually one or two months of rent. On listings labelled "Deposit protected", Spotahome refunds the deposit directly if the landlord doesn't return it within three months of moving out and you've met the contract terms. There are also many properties without a deposit, easy to filter from the search.
No. You'll need an ID or passport, your Tor Vergata enrolment confirmation and a payment method. After the landlord accepts the booking, they may request proof of solvency and a SEPA direct debit to finalise the contract.
The monthly rent always includes rent, the IBI property tax and condominium fees. Utilities such as electricity, water, gas and Wi-Fi are included in many listings but not in all. Personal expenses like groceries, toiletries and optional services such as a weekly cleaner or parking are never included. Read the listing description carefully so the move-in day brings no surprises.
