From “studying abroad” to “living abroad”: Lodgerin launches Abroad – the software redefining global mobility
International academic mobility is undergoing a profound transformation: more than 6.9 million students are currently pursuing a program outside their home country, nearly triple the number at the start of the century. But while studying abroad has always been an academic challenge, today the real test lies in living abroad: finding suitable housing, having reliable support, and ensuring a safe and well-managed experience.
In this context, Abroad by Lodgerin emerges as a comprehensive software solution that enables universities and organisations to manage the entire international mobility cycle, from admission to check-out, within a single digital environment.
Technology and human support for “living abroad”
Across Europe, the gap between student housing supply and demand now exceeds three million beds, affecting program reputation and the overall quality of the student experience. Meanwhile, recent reports recommend offering 24/7 support and stronger coordination between universities, accommodation, and students.
Abroad by Lodgerin addresses this challenge by combining technology, management and human assistance, allowing universities to take full control of their students’ international experience, from pre-departure to return.
Comprehensive management in one tool
Designed as an all-in-one solution, Abroad centralises every process related to international mobility within a single tool:
- Program dashboard: overview of all active programs with occupancy and financial data.
- Program creation: design and customize programs with housing and service options, create groups, assign coordinators, and allocate housing easily.
- Personalised housing proposals: manage accommodations tailored to each student’s profile.
- Service management: includes airport pickup, 24/7 emergency response, orientation, and health support.
- Document tracking: monitor submissions and validations in real time.
- Payment management: integrated collection and tracking.
- Student support: communication tools for continuous assistance.
- Real-time reports: program progress, occupancy, and finances with automated updates.
In addition, Abroad integrates seamlessly with the other solutions in Lodgerin’s digital ecosystem: Arrento, which helps property owners and managers efficiently handle mid-term rentals, and Arribo, a mobile app that supports students throughout their entire international stay. Together, these tools create a connected environment that unifies communication, operations, and support.
A model that elevates the international experience
Beyond technology, Lodgerin provides human guidance and support before, during, and after each placement, helping reduce risks and enhance the overall quality of the student experience.
“Behind every process, there are people, and we are here for them,” says Óscar Rubio, Lodgerin’s founder, who describes Abroad as “a software designed to professionalize international mobility and connect universities, accommodations and students in one trusted ecosystem.”
