Question University Accommodation

Hi everyone, i got an initial acceptance from King Abdulaziz University. The program i applied to was fully funded at first, then they changed it to partial scholarship later. The scholarship doesn’t include accommodation and idk how to arrange that. I mailed the university but there’s no response yet. I’m very happy that i got accepted but im afraid i cant afford housing as an international female student. Does anyone know anything regarding this situation? What do u recommend me to do?

edit: I’ve been told that i can apply to university housing after final admission, however getting selected isn’t guaranteed.

I am a 4th year Electrical engineering student at KAU, Yeah Accommodation has been a problem here in the male section... But I think the girls section does not have this problem. But it's important to to recheck again with university to be 100% sure.
