Intern Housing Accommodations
For summer 2025 on the Columbus campus, we will be utilizing 2 types of housing.
Option 1: A standard dorm room without a kitchen includes beds, desks, desk chairs, window coverings, trash can/recycle bin, closet or wardrobe unit, and refrigerator/microwave unit. Residents will have access to a communal kitchen in the residence hall equipped with a sink, stove, oven, fridge, and microwave, though cooking accessories must be provided by the residents. Bathroom arrangements vary by residence hall; some rooms include a private bathroom that is cleaned only before move-in and after departure, while others use communal bathrooms with individual locking stalls (typically 4-8 per floor), which are cleaned daily by the cleaning service.
Option 2: The residence hall with Kitchen offers spacious accommodations with all the comforts of home. Rooms are fully furnished and include beds, desks, desk chairs, window coverings, trash/recycling bins, and closet or wardrobe units. Each room features a refrigerator, sink, microwave, stove, oven, and ample storage space for cooking and dining needs. A cozy living room, complete with a couch, provides a comfortable space for relaxing or socializing. Residents also enjoy the convenience of a private bathroom, ensuring a sense of privacy and comfort. This setup is perfect for those seeking a more independent living experience.
- Interns assigned to a Single Room with a Kitchen will enjoy the privacy of an individual room and bathroom. Each room is part of a shared suite setup, where the kitchen and living room areas are communal spaces, shared with one other intern. To ensure compatibility, a suitemate survey will be conducted, matching individuals based on similar habits and preferences. For example, intern placements may be arranged as follows: Ryan in Room 250A and Blake in Room 250B.
- Interns assigned to a Double Room with a Kitchen will enjoy the privacy of an individual room and bathroom within a shared suite. Each suite accommodates four interns total, with two interns per room, sharing a common kitchen and living room area. To promote compatibility, a suitemate survey will be conducted, matching individuals based on similar habits and preferences. For example, placements may be arranged as follows: Ryan and Blake in Room 250A, and Alex and Jordan in Room 250B.
