Housing Options
Now that you have decided that you definitely want to intern in Washington, DC this summer, you need to find a place to live. This can be another daunting task. To help you, RIW has created a list of places where interns can live during the summer. Summer housing for interns varies both in cost and in living style. There are several housing options available to you.
One housing option is to rent a dorm room from a university or college in Washington, DC. Students living in this type of environment live with other college students from all over the nation who come to spend the summer in DC. This type of housing is convenient because furniture is provided and meal plans are available, but keep in mind that it can be costly.
Another option is to sublet a room in an apartment from students who reside in Washington, DC for the school year, but go home for the summer. A few of the universities in Washington, DC provide off-campus housing for students. It is important to note that the universities do not regulate such living arrangements. One bonus of this living arrangement is that you will most likely live with other students.
A final option for students is to live in an apartment building. These complexes rent apartments for a minimum of one month. Some of them provide furniture, but others do not. Complexes that do not provide furniture are cheaper than those that do.
These are merely suggestions to help start you on your housing search. Students do reside in all types of summer housing, from universities to apartments, to youth hostels. Remember that listings, prices and availability are subject to change and are independent of Rutgers University and RIW.
