Whether you are taking classes at the Washington Theological Union or any other DC area academic institution, you are eligible to apply for a room in the Residence Hall at the Washington Theological Union.
Housing is available at the WTU residence hall for the summer, starting May 17th, for students and interns. The WTU is conveniently located near the Takoma Park metro, which makes it an easy commute for students in local area colleges, or individuals who are participating in summer internships. For residents who will be off campus for lunch, take out meals can be arranged to meet the needs and requests of residents.
If you have questions about summer housing, please contact Residence Life at residence@wtu.edu.
Students taking classes at other DC area academic institutions must, as a condition for housing at the Washington Theological Union, participate in the Resident Scholar Enrichment Program (RSEP). The Resident Scholar Enrichment Program is a living, learning, and faith community of students in graduate studies committed to academic excellence. Each matriculated student who is enrolled at the Washington Theological Union as a Resident Scholar participates in a program that offers the opportunity not only to share life with other students but also to learn from one another. The goal of the Resident Scholar Enrichment Program is to offer an environment that integrates the student’s life, studies, and faith experience so that it leads to robust academic exploration, life-giving faith, and a positive living situation.
