All housing available at Georgetown University during the summer is considered on-campus housing.

It is not possible to rent monthly or weekly. Housing for summer academic programs is based on the dates of that particular program and the accommodations offered may vary. Applicants must pay for the entire summer housing period even if they do not plan to occupy the space for the entire period offered.

Visit our housing web site (http://housing.georgetown.edu/summer), complete an online application and pay with a credit card (Visa or MasterCard only). Summer school students may not have their housing charges placed on their student account.

For interns, 14 days prior to the arrival date you select on the Occupancy Agreement. For summer school students, 7 days prior to the arrival date you select on the Occupancy Agreement. The deadline does not guarantee housing, spaces usually fills quickly.

Occupancy Agreements and payments are processed online.

To stay on campus, you must have an internship (GU students only), hold a summer job (GU students only), or be enrolled in summer school classes. For tax purposes, our office does verify that summer school students are actually enrolled at the University for credited summer school classes.

Since students often choose to do both, it is possible.

Georgetown is a short distance from the downtown DC area via public or campus transportation, but due to rush hour traffic, time to get to a designated area increases. You can walk to the nearest metro stops in Rosslyn, VA (orange and blue lines), to Foggy Bottom (orange and blue lines at GW University), or to Dupont Circle (red line) in about twenty minutes. There are also metro bus stops located at the front gates of the University and at the Hospital Entrance on Reservoir Road. You can get anywhere in DC on the Metro for approximately $1.35 per one-way trip. Travel time to the US Capital building once on the Metro is approximately 20 minutes. Weekly and monthly passes are also available for the DC Metro. Go to the Metro's Ride Guide, and you will find a map of the DC Metro System. You should also go to http://www.commuterpage.com for more information on commuting to work in the DC metropolitan area. Another web site that might prove helpful is the Georgetown Metro Connection Page.

Walking from the University to the National Mall takes approximately 35 minutes.

You may request to live with specific individuals in double occupancy rooms/apartments/townhouses. The Office of Summer and Conference Housing reserves the right NOT to honor these requests based on one of the following criteria: both students did not request to live together; students have applied for summer housing with different move-in/move-out dates; if one student requests to live with another student after a particular apartment/townhouse has been filled because internal assignments have been made and building assignment information has already been mailed to the students.

Move-in and move-out dates are as follows:

• GU Interns - Double occupancy room reservations in apartment/townhouse, 5/30/09 - 8/1/09.
• Full session Summer School students - Double occupancy room reservations in an apartment/townhouse, 5/30/09 - 8/8/09.
• Summer School Students (Session I) - double occupancy room reservation an apartment, 5/30/09 - 7/3/09.

• EFL 8-Week Intensive Program: 5/24 - 7/18/09.
• EFL American Conversational English Program: 7/19 - 8/08/09
• Housing is not available for non-Georgetown Interns.

Move-in begins at 2:00 p.m. Move-out is by 10:00 a.m.

Because of late stay for Georgetown students, commencement housing, alumni reunion weekend, and ongoing projects to prepare for fall occupancy, we cannot extend dates beyond what is offered.

Students with an on-campus assignment for the spring semester may sign up for late stay or pre-session housing to ensure continuous housing from the end of the spring semester to the start of the summer. Similarly, students with an on-campus assignment for the Fall '09 Semester may sign up for late stay/early arrival housing to ensure continuous housing from the end of the summer to the start of the fall semester. More information will be available as each of these dates approach.

We will make every effort to confirm your space on campus within two to four weeks of receiving your Housing Occupancy Agreement. You will receive information regarding your building assignment only, check-in information and the names of your roommates (who authorized us to disclose their information) to coordinate your furnishings.

You will receive your actual room assignment, telephone number, and mailbox address when you arrive to campus.

Single rooms are not available for Summer 2009.

If you have a medical need which requires special housing consideration, please complete the form on the website housing.georgetown.edu/summer and return it to the Office of Summer and Conference Housing. Your form will be reviewed by the Conference Specialist and the Director of Summer and Conference Housing. You will receive a written response within approximately two weeks of your request.

You may arrive or depart anytime during the contracted period, however, you are still financially responsible for the contracted period on the Occupancy Agreement. Please email summerhousing@georgetown.edu if you are arriving later than the check-in date so we know to hold the space.

Yes. Once you receive your building assignment letter, you will receive shipping information.

You are required to submit full payment with your summer housing Occupancy Agreement. Twenty percent (20%) of the room charge will be withheld from a refund should the Housing Occupancy Agreement be cancelled in writing no later than 24 hours prior to check-in. Any cancellation after the contract start date or "no-show" will result in full forfeiture of all fees.

If you are dissatisfied with your housing assignment once you arrive, please visit our office in 100 Harbin Hall so a staff member can discuss options and provide alternatives to the particular problems you are having. Our office is open Monday - Friday, 9am - 7pm and on Saturday and Sunday, from 11am - 7pm. Refunds are only given in the case of a personal medical situation documented by a physician or cancellation of summer school courses.

Students who do not request a roommate by name are randomly assigned, based on best-available matches of self-reported sleeping and neatness habits. Students are encouraged to resolve their differences among themselves, but if necessary, there is a mediator available to help them work through their dispute. If differences cannot be resolved, a room change can be approved based upon availability of space. If students cannot resolve their dispute and there is no space to make a room change resulting in one or more student moving off campus, payment will not be refunded.

Although we do not require residents to carry medical insurance, it is highly recommended.

Neither Georgetown University nor the Department of Summer and Conference Housing will be able to reimburse students for any loss or damage to their personal belonging. Students are advised to carry homeowner's or renter's insurance to cover their belongings while they are at the university.

On campuOn campus parking is not available. Street parking is not recommended because it is generally permit parking. Parking garages in the vicinity can be found by going on the internet.

Yates Field House is available to students who live on campus during the summer. This facility offers a pool, free and machine weights, an indoor track, indoor tennis courts which must be reserved and classes.

Although the campus is reasonably safe, it is in a semi-urban area and safety has to be a combined effort of staff and residents.

Georgetown has officers patrolling campus who respond to emergencies. Emergency call boxes responded to by the Department of Public Safety, are strategically placed throughout the campus. The entrance door into the lobby of all residence halls is locked and there is a 24 hour attendant. Entrance doors are locked where there are hallways into apartment complexes.

It is the responsibility of the residents to lock their rooms/apartment entrance door when they are in the room/apartment or when they depart. If a room/apartment key is lost it should be reported so a lock change and be done. In addition, residents should not prop open public entrance doors.

Residents should register and escort guests so their roommates are aware of others in their room/apartment and the Office of Summer and Conference Housing has a record of visitors.

Students should travel in groups or pairs and avoid dark isolated areas on or off campus.

The Georgetown Emergency Response Medical Service (GERMS) is on call to respond to medical emergencies and the hospital is located on campus.
