A two-week minimum stay is required. If you register for less than two weeks, you will automatically be billed for two weeks.

Weeks stayed are calculated in weekly increments. Billing is based on a Sunday arrival and Saturday departure, regardless of when you arrive or depart. Charges will not be prorated for late arrivals or early departures. Individual daily rates are not available. There are no reduced rates.

After Applying:

Once we receive your application, we will send you an email confirming the receipt of your application and detailing the tentative cost of your housing. Room assignment notices for summer will be sent via e-mail starting in early April. These notices will include your balance due, which you must pay online prior to, or at the time of, your arrival.

 

Payment Information

Deposit:

A non-refundable $200 deposit is required to reserve a space in a residence hall. The $200 deposit will be applied to your total housing balance due and must accompany your housing application.

Returned Checks and Credit Cards:

There is a $25 service fee for all returned checks. Invalid credit cards may result in forfeiture of room privileges.

Balance Due at Check-In:

Balance payments (total housing fees due for summer minus the deposit paid) are payable in full, via credit card on-line. All Summer Interns must pay in full (zero balance) before they can check-in to their summer residence hall.

Cancellations:

Cancellations made under ten business days from the time of your scheduled date of arrival (as noted on your application) will result in a $300 late cancellation fee - charged directly to your credit card. Cancellation fees are non-refundable.

Extensions, Early Check-Outs, and No-Shows:

All extensions must be requested in writing through Housing and Dining Programs (you can e-mail us at summerhousing@american.edu). Extensions will be granted on a space-available basis, and you may be required to move to a different room and/or hall to accommodate the extension. Please note that no extensions will be granted past Saturday, August 10th at 12:00 noon. Additional fees due must be paid immediately upon notification from Housing and Dining Programs. Interns checking out before their scheduled departure date forfeit all unused housing fees. If you fail to check-in on the date submitted on your application, we will attempt to contact you to confirm your arrival. However, room reservations will be canceled 48-hours after your missed check-in date, and all appropriate cancellation fees will be billed to your credit card.
