Where to live
Where to live if you study at Católica
The campus is a little off the metro network, which is precisely why choosing the right neighbourhood matters. The areas that work are the ones with a direct bus or a short metro-plus-walk: Saldanha, Marquês de Pombal and Alvalade all fall into that group.
Saldanha is the strongest all-rounder, the biggest choice of rooms, two metro lines and the main bus interchange, which is where the Católica routes run from. Marquês de Pombal gives you the same connections plus the centre on foot.
Católica's master's programmes draw a heavily international cohort, and a large share of our residents in these neighbourhoods are on one-year programmes there.
