On campus housing: There are 16 residence halls open to men and women, but none of them are co-ed. Seven residence halls are on campus and nine are off campus, only a few blocks away. The buildings vary slightly in their accommodations. For instance, some offer single or double rooms while others have apartments with two double rooms, each sharing a lounge and kitchen.

Host family program: If you're looking for an opportunity to experience the Mexican culture around-the-clock, and become fluent in Spanish, you should strongly consider living with a host family. You'll not only become a part of their family unit, but you'll get integrated into the local community – quickly. The fee for living with a host family includes a shared room with another international student, three meals a day, housekeeping, laundry facilities and utilities.

It is required by law to all students studying in Mexico for more than 2 months to obtain a FM3 student visa. Summer internships, even if they are for less than 2 months, will also require a student visa. Students studying in Mexico for 2 months or less can do it only with a Tourist Visa. It is acceptable for some nationalities to enter Mexico with a tourist visa and then change it in Mexico to a FM3 student visa. The International Office at Campus Monterrey will help you understand and solve your doubts about Immigration procedures. However, it is recommended that you hire a professional legal firm to get your visa. The International Office will recommend some legal firms that can help you do this process.

As part of the regulations, Tecnologico de Monterrey requires all students to have a Major Health Insurance Policy. Because of this, you must arrive with an insurance policy covering your entire stay and you must show it at the International Programs Office during the Orientation Program. If you do not have this type of insurance, you must buy one during the first days of your stay
