Yes, you can usually share accommodation with your friend who is already studying abroad, as long as you both meet the accommodation provider’s requirements.

- University accommodation: Some universities allow you to request to share with a friend, but this depends on availability and specific policies.
- Private accommodation: Many providers offer shared flats or dual-occupancy studio options, though extra fees and restrictions may apply. Always check if sharing is permitted for your chosen room type.

Policies vary, so contact the accommodation office or provider directly to confirm options and any additional steps needed.
