You may choose to live off-campus, but if you so choose, you are expected to make individual arrangements for finding an apartment. It is recommended, however, that you live on campus for the study-abroad semester. The amounts given above are based on the rate of a standard double room in a traditional residence hall. The rates for apartment-type housing, double occupancy, equipped with kitchen facilities are higher (North Village $2,735, Pennsylvania Avenue houses $2,235). The rates for single rooms range from $2,320 per semester (residence halls) to $ 3,045 per semester (apartment-type housing).

The college offers "block plans" of 150, 180, 210, or 240 meals per semester (an average of 11-16 meals per week) in order to provide maximum flexibility. Students living in the residence halls are required to take the 210 (14 meals a week) or 240 meal plan. Board is optional for students living in apartment-type housing or off-campus
