The contract is flexible and very friendly. A student housing rental contract is managed that includes all services and benefits and is governed by rental law 820 of 2003. The Coexistence Manual is part of the contract. It is signed between ESSTUDIA and the father, mother or responsible adult and is also signed by the Resident. We do not ask for co-signers, promissory notes or vouchers. The duration of the contract is chosen by you, the minimum time is 3 months (except for the intersemester season which could be shorter).
You should keep in mind that the longer the contract lasts, the monthly rate will be lower. In annual contracts you must pay for 12 months of the year, but you will have your room guaranteed that entire year. In short contracts, the monthly rate is higher but you do not pay for the months that you are not in Esstudia and therefore you must vacate your room to hand it over to Esstudia for those months that you do not pay. Make your own calculations according to your study plan and apply for the option that best suits what you need.
If you do the math correctly you will come to the conclusion that our rates are quite competitive and in reality they are not higher. We recommend that you include in all options the same benefits that Esstudia offers you and that you give special value to some things that you cannot always assign a price to, such as your security (surveillance and fire and access systems) or privacy, having a single room or the convenience of paying for all services in a single bill.
If you are comparing us with a conventional apartment, remember to add to that apartment the public services, the dedicated internet, the weekly cleaning, the cable television, the medical assistance, the staff, the surveillance, the laundry, the gym, but above all, remember to add the food (applies to Bogotá) of the quality that Esstudia offers you, the support spaces that are at your disposal without leaving home (study rooms, games room, terrace) and the tranquility that a formal company with experience and with a national operation like Estudia that is providing you services.
If you are comparing us with offers from residences that provide apparently similar services, we recommend that you be sure that the rate includes food (applies to Bogotá), laundry (applies to Bogotá), medical assistance, cable television, single room, bathroom private (applies to Bogotá and Manizales) and that guarantee that you will always have a favorable environment to study.
