Graduate and Law Housing

On-Campus Housing Availability

Currently, a limited number of on-campus housing options are available for full-time graduate and law students. Graduate and law students who are not able to be accommodated will be placed on a wait list and offered spaces as they become available.

Where on-campus do graduate students live?

Graduate students generally live with upperclass undergraduate students in either Caldwell (all male) or Seton (all female).  These stately, castle-like buildings are among the most historic at Catholic University, creating the feeling of a traditional campus. 

Who is eligible for student housing?

The University policy on Housing Eligibility can be found here.  Generally, in order to live in on-campus housing, individuals must be CUA degree-seeking students who have full-time status with the university. University standards for full-time status are outlined in the Academic Announcements publications. CUA residential facilities are designed only to accommodate individual men and women; we do not have available accommodations for married couples or families with children.

How can I apply for graduate student housing?

Interested students should submit a Residence Hall & Dining Services Application and spaces will be offered as available.  Please contact us directly to inquire about current availablility.

How can I find off-campus housing?

It is strongly recommended that you begin pursuing off-campus housing options, even if you have submitted an application for on-campus housing. To assist you in your efforts Housing Services maintains an on-line Off-Campus Resource Center which includes listings of currently available properties.
