Unfortunately, the University does not offer short-term housing. However, there are many other possibilities for different forms of short-term housing.
Hotels
and Motels in the Area provides contact information, distance from campus
and websites for nearby hotels and motels.
Extended Stay America is a network of hotels and motels that
offer reduced rates for short-term stays. Participating area hotels are located
in Annapolis, Columbia, Landover,
and Rockville.
Sublet
Information is an
apartment rental service that advertises apartments, sublets, subleases,
roommates & houses for rent. See also the Washington
Post, Washington
City Paper, and the Washington
Times on-line search processes for current classified ads. Finally, Craig's
List provides
subletting listings.
Apartment
Complexes generally offer 3, 6 or 9 month leases at
slightly higher rents. On-line locator services allow
searching for apartments that offer this option. NOTE HOWEVER that in practical
terms many complexes often do not offer short-term leases since they prefer
to lease by the year. (Furniture rental is also generally
available.)
Biz-Stay is
another on-line resource. The preferred accommodation choices in their directory
are short-term furnished apartments or homes, and apartment-style hotel rooms
with kitchens. (Accommodations of this type are commonly referred to as corporate
housing, temporary housing, serviced apartments, extended stay hotels, apart-hotels
or self-catering apartments.) Preference is also given to hotels that offer
extended-stay discounts, typically for 7 days or longer. There are a wide-variety
of listings for the Washington
D.C. metro area.
DC
Housing Network is an online
resource to help people working
in the public interest find a place to stay in any price range in the Washington
area ...especially short-term housing. There are guest houses, rooms for rent
in group houses, apartment rentals, shares and sublets, roommate matching and
house swapping services, from bargain to luxurious.
