Summer Housing
Summer 2023 housing will be available for any enrolled Carnegie Mellon students who have an academic, research, or employment need to be on campus this summer and who require housing for a period equivalent to a summer school session, or the full summer term. Students who require a special housing accommodation should mark their housing application appropriately and get in touch with the Office of Disability Resources as noted. The minimum period of time a student can apply for housing is one summer school session.
Summer Housing Buildings
Summer 2023 assignments will be offered in Forbes Beeler Apartment Doubles and Apartment Singles, with overflow housing in Residence on Fifth Apartment Triples, if needed. Assignments will be made in order of application date.
Please note that the Summer 2023 residents will be the first students to live in the brand-new Forbes Beeler Apartments. For this reason, students will not be permitted to hang anything on the walls or ceilings, or any surface that is part of the apartment unit. Additional policies and restrictions will be published here and communicated to all summer housing applicants prior to the cancellation deadline of May 1.
