There are different types of accommodation options available at TISS such as hostels, IRO Flat, Guest House, Service Apartments and IRO Off-campus flat etc for incoming International guests (students/ staff and faculty). The accommodation for international students/ faculty and guests is jointly managed by hostel/ guest house authorities and IRO. The allocation of room(s) to individual student/ guest depends on the availability of rooms and other logistic arrangements.
Kindly note, as there is limited on-campus accommodation/ rooms for international students, certain decisions regarding the allotment of rooms and stay can be made directly by the hostel/ guest house authorities and IRO adopts a facilitative role in this.
- Hotels: Currently, there are two - 7 storied buildings (girls hostel and boys hostel) in the new campus that accommodates the Indian and International students. The 7th floor of each of these hostels is reserved for the international students, the rest it is a common building with the same facilities and the students get enough opportunities to interact and make friends or be with Indian students. As per TISS policy, the rates for international short-term students is Rs. 500 per head/ per day for hostel (on triple sharing basis). The rooms are on triple sharing basis, shared with other short term International Students, with one common bathroom for the floor.
