Housing
Unfortunately, the Graduate Center of the City University of New York does not have dormitory facilities. Nor does the Latin/Greek Institute's calendar of classes coincide with the summer calendars of other universities in the area. There is, however, a private company, Educational Housing Services, that provides dormitory rooms for students in various colleges and universities in New York and that will have rooms available this summer in several of their facilities. We will also be able to use the facilities of International House.
Please state on your housing application to either organization that you will be a student in the Latin/Greek Institute and want to room with another LGI student.
Note: Information listed below is a referral, not an endorsement. Neither the Graduate Center nor the Latin/Greek Institute is responsible for Educational Housing or International House.
