Bussola is a completely free service that helps students, both international and Italian, in finding an accommodation offered by the Ceur Foundation (European Center for University and Research), opened in Bologna in 1994.
The service is aimed at helping foreign and Italian students to find accommodation, trying to improve student living conditions, pursuing the same idea of excellence that characterizes the Foundation's other activities.
Thanks to Bussola's success in Bologna, in 1996 the service was extended to Ferrara and then to Turin in 2004.
