What is it like to live as a student in a city built from scratch on the Mediterranean?
Housing is divided into three zones: On-campus dorms ($2,000/year), Latin District apartments ($300-500/month), and Mazarine villas for shared student housing. Most students prefer Latin District for its Greek-style low-rise buildings and community cafes.
Cost of living is 40% lower than New Cairo. A full meal in the city’s food hub costs $3, gym membership $20. The city offers free electric buses and bike-sharing.
Community life revolves around the Heritage City and Marina. Students have access to opera house, cinema, and water sports academy. AIU organizes weekly markets and tech hackathons in the Downtown Towers co-working spaces.
Architecture plays a role here too: Latin District's wide arcades and shaded courtyards were specifically designed for student social life in hot climate.
