Summer Housing

ELIGIBILITY

To be eligible for summer housing, one of the following must apply:

  • Enrolled in an in-person class(es) for summer session I or summer session II
  • Participating in a summer research program at Trinity College
  • Working as a summer term employee at Trinity College
  • Participating in a summer internship in the Hartford area (students currently enrolled at Trinity College)

Please note: summer housing space is limited.

Non-Trinity students who are not enrolled in summer courses at Trinity or involved with a special project affiliated with Trinity College are NOT eligible for summer housing.

DEADLINE & APPLICATION INFORMATION

All summer housing applications are due by Monday, April 29 2024 by midnight. Applications after this date WILL NOT be considered.

Note: If you are planning to register for summer classes, it is in your best interest to apply for summer housing by April 29th, 2024. 

If you wish to withdraw or make changes to your application (e.g. change in starting or ending dates), you must notify the summer housing coordinator via email ([email protected]) as soon as possible. Individuals who fail to contact the summer housing coordinator with appropriate notice will incur a $100 late withdrawal fee.

Any summer residents who vacate their summer housing earlier than anticipated without proper notice may still be required to pay the housing fee based on the original ending date.

Please read the summer housing application carefully and fill out ALL sections. Room assignment notifications will be emailed to your Trinity College account when your room is ready for occupancy. Every attempt will be made to accommodate any preferences that you make.

Access will be programmed into your summer housing assignment only for the dates that you have indicated on your summer housing application.

Summer residents are expected to be familiar with, and abide by, the Residential Guidelines and Student Handbook’s policies and procedures.

Summer residents will be held responsible for the condition of their rooms at the time of checkout. Summer residents are expected to leave their rooms clean and free of personal items and trash. A room left in an unacceptable condition will be subject to excessive cleaning and/or damage fees. Fees incurred as a result of damage or excessive cleaning will be posted to the student’s fall tuition bill.

PAYMENT

The cost of summer housing for 2024 will be $175 per week.

Note: Students who are completing their research through the Dean of Faculty Office will be exempt from this fee. All other students, please refer to the payment information below.

There are four options for summer housing payment:

  1. Summer Research Program – Most grants are for 10 weeks only; please confirm your eligible weeks with your faculty supervisor.
    • Additional weeks stayed will be charged to your student account and must be approved.
  2. Department/Office – If a department/office employs you and has agreed to pay for your summer housing, your employer must fill out a payment request form (link located at the bottom of this page).
    • Please note:
      • Employers do not always pay for housing for your full term of employment; please confirm your eligible weeks with your employer.
      • Additional weeks stayed will be charged to your student account and must be approved.
      • If a payment request form is not submitted by your supervisor, you will be responsible for the cost of summer housing.
  3. Self-Pay – Payment for summer housing is billed through the Office of Student Accounts, NOT the Office of the Bantam Network Residential Learning Community.
    • If you are opting for full or partial self pay, make sure to check your student account throughout May and June.
    • Once the charge is posted, you will have to pay in full.
    • Any payments that are returned for insufficient funds could void your application.
    • You will have 5 business days from notification that your payment was insufficient to submit another payment to the Office of Student Accounts.
    • If payment is not made, your summer housing assignment will be cancelled.
    • If you have any questions about your billing or this process, contact the Office of Student Accounts ([email protected] or (860) 297-2028).
  4. A combination of the above (please review the notes for each category)

Payment is expected for all weeks that your belongings are occupying your Summer Housing assignment, regardless of whether or not you are in your room (i.e. you will be charged for housing even if you are away for a week or weekend on vacation).
