EITM Home | Seminars| Application | Brochure

 

For your month-long stay in St. Louis, there are several options available to you in terms of your housing needs.

  Dormitory Housing

The most convenient option, and the one we strongly recommend, is to stay in the newly built Washington University dormitory facility which is located in the Small Group Housing #3 building, at the corner of Big Bend Boulevard and Forest Park Parkway at the end of campus. This building is within a block of the Law School in Anheuser-Busch Hall, where sessions will be held, and also adjacent to a parking garage. Single rooms run $39/per night and include a linen service. Rooms include a twin bed frame and mattress, chest of drawers, and desk. Two floor plans are available: A room in a four-room suite with two bathrooms or a room in a two-room suite with one bathroom. The building has a living room area with a large screen television, many common areas with chairs/tables, mailboxes, and an ATM. There is a laundry facility on the premises as well and many vending machines for your convenience. The building overlooks a large courtyard and guests have access to an in-ground pool next door.

  Political Science/Economic Graduate Student Shared Housing

Later in the year, we will send out a mass email to graduate students here in both the Political Science and Economics departments asking their interest in either subletting an apartment or sharing with someone for the term of the Summer Institute. Once we hear back from interested parties, we will post a list of their emails on our website that you can query them and get directly in touch with those interested in sharing and/or subletting space. The website address is wc.wustl.edu
