Rent

The summer housing rental rate is $80.00 per week. Student employees will be charged their summer rent through bi-weekly payroll deductions. In most cases, students receiving fellowships receive a housing allowance paid by the Department that is offering the fellowship. The allowance is usually automatically deducted from the Fellowship/Internship award, but in a few cases, we will need to receive payments in person at the start of the Summer Housing period.

Conduct

While living in campus housing, students are expected to comply with all of the guidelines contained in the Apartment Lease Agreement.  

Living Arrangements

Apartment and room assignments will be confirmed after receipt of the summer housing applications. We will assign students within campus apartments for this summer and most students will have a roommate. We will try to accommodate roommate requests where feasible, but cannot guarantee that all requests will be met. In all cases if you are assigned to a Brunswick or Harpswell Apartment for fall semester, you will be assigned to that unit for Summer.

If you have questions please email summerhousing@bowdoin.edu.

Room Inspection

Facilities Management works hard to provide and maintain a healthy, safe, and clean living environment for all members of the Bowdoin community. Students should review the Room Inspection page for detailed information on damage policies and cleaning charges.

Students must review and complete the Room Inspection Condition Contract (RICC) within forty-eight hours of occupying their summer housing.
