Transitional On-Campus Housing

Graduate and exchange students arriving in Pittsburgh in August may have access to limited transitional Carnegie Mellon housing if it is requested it in advance.

• If you are interested in transitional housing you can reserve a room through the Summer Housing icon on the Housing and Dining Services web site or by visiting Transitional Housing.
• Transitional housing is tentatively available from Friday, July 29, 2011 at 12:00 pm to Saturday, August 7, 2011 at 6:00 pm. Check-out is by 6:00 pm on August 7. If you need temporary housing before August 1, CMU has a web site that provides information on local hotels. A short list of hotels is provided in the Temporary Hotel Accommodations section of the Settling In Guide.
• Transitional housing costs approximately $38.00 per night to share a double room. Single spaces are only available for extreme circumstances and you should contact Housing and Dining Services for availability. New rates will be approved in Spring 2010 and posted on the web site. Rooms are assigned on a first-come first-served basis and single rooms are limited.
• If you reserve transitional housing and cannot use it, you must cancel your reservation 48 hours in advance or you will be billed for the dates you reserved. These are dormitory accommodations. Bed linens and bath towels will be provided for easy accommodation.
• When you register on-line you will agree to allow Housing and Dining Services to bill your student account after you check out for the number of nights you have stayed. Credit cards, cash and traveler checks are NOT accepted.
• For more information about Carnegie Mellon's housing visit Housing and Dining Services. For more information on off-campus housing, visit the Community Housing website.
