Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Because you get to share with 'locals' and this way you gain a better understanding of the culture.

Personal comments
ITAM does not have any 'on-campus' accomodation, as most people live at home or rent privately, however they will do their utmost to place you in a shared apartment with other students, usually a shared house or apartment (single-sex) the international office at ITAM is really helpful and the staff able to advise. If you want to find your own accommodation that is also possible but note it is difficult to find short-term lets, like in any city. The costs vary but cheap compared to Europe - it is best to choose to location over cost, as you don't want to be far away from the uni.

“The best university in Mexico”
anonymous
Mexico, Undergraduate
Financial Management, 2019
Overall
Most of the3 teachers have studied at ITAM for their bachelor, and have studied at some of the best unvniversities in the world. They have worked or are still working in the government as administration secretaries, or are the CEOs of big local or international companies.
ITAM is the best university in Mexico because it takes the most of its students. To get in is hard, but to stay is harder.

Hard to finish, sometimes you do not get enough spleep, but is worth it,

Personal recommendation
Go and be surprised, this univeristy is private and therefore only the top 20% of wealthy mexicans can afford it, but enjoy the experience and rememeber the other 80% of the country are very poor. Try and get involved in voluntary work while you are there, just go and do it - you'll love it!
