Hostels


There are 2 purposely built, well equipped and spacious hostels within the Ida Rieu premises: Sarah Mujahid Hostel for Girls and Infaq Foundation Hostel for Boys. These hostels are furnished with the C.C.T.V.s so that the students can enjoy the television programs and can also read the books of their choice in large prints at their leisure time.
