Yes, on-campus housing is available, but it is limited. Scholarship and Fellowship Recipients receive priority placement for the available housing on campus. You may sign up for housing during the online registration process by selecting ‘Yes’ to the question ‘Are you interested in on-campus housing for the duration of your workshop?’. The Housing and Transportation form will then be added to your account and we ask that you complete it in order to be considered for housing, in addition to paying the cost of the room and board.
