The price of the seminar includes housing in a shared apartment. There is no reduction in fees for students not living in Washington Center housing. Services generally include: high speed Internet connection; TV and basic cable; local telephone service; basic linens.

Housing assignments are sent out approximately two weeks prior to check-in. Check-in will take place from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on the dates indicated. All seminar fees must be paid before a participant will be allowed to check-in. The Washington Center interns for Spring 2010 who attend this seminar receive no-cost housing between the end of the seminar and the check-in date for the internship, although the room assignment may change during the interim.

The Washington Center currently provides housing in conveniently located apartments in Northern Virginia and Maryland with access to the Blue, Orange, and Red Lines on the Metro and close proximity to downtown Washington, D.C. These facilities have a number of amenities in addition to Resident Assistants who are on duty in the evening.

Apartment layouts may include two bedrooms (4 people), efficiencies (2 people; studio apartment) and triples (3 people; 1 bedroom and separate living area); all facilities are non-smoking. We recommend that participants do not bring a car during their stay. Prior to their arrival, interns must submit a Parking Request Form to seek approval to park a car at their housing facility. Parking is limited and therefore not guaranteed. We cannot guarantee a participant's request for a specific roommate.
