Student Summer Housing

To qualify for summer housing, you must be returning to and enrolled in fall classes at Trinity College, and at least one of the following criteria must be met:

• Enrolled in an in-person class(es) for summer session I or summer session II
  
• Participating in a summer research program at Trinity College
• Working as a summer term employee at Trinity College
• Participating in a summer internship in the Hartford area (students currently enrolled at Trinity College)

Please be aware that proof of class enrollment, research, or Trinity employment/internship must be submitted to the housing team to support your application for summer housing. Students who do not meet the eligibility criteria outlined above should refrain from applying for summer housing.

If you are not a currently enrolled student at Trinity College, you are ineligible for summer housing. Please do not submit an application, as it will not be considered. This policy also applies to graduated seniors.

• The weekly cost for summer housing in 2026 is set at $185.
• Important Note: Students conducting research through the Dean of Faculty Office will be exempt from this fee. All other students should refer to the payment details outlined below.
• There are four payment options for summer housing:
  • Summer Research Program: Most grants cover only 10 weeks; please verify your eligible weeks with your faculty supervisor.
  • Extended Stay: Additional weeks will be charged to your student account and require approval.
  • Department/Office Payment: If your department or office employs you and has agreed to cover your summer housing, your employer must complete a payment request form.
    • Please Keep in Mind:
      • Employers may not cover housing for the entire duration of your employment; confirm your eligible weeks with them.
      • Additional weeks will incur charges to your student account and need approval.
      • If your supervisor does not submit a payment request form, you will be responsible for the summer housing fees.
  • Self-Pay Option: Payments for summer housing are processed through the Office of Student Accounts, not the Office of the Bantam Network.
    • If you choose full or partial self-payment, please monitor your student account throughout May and June.
    • Once the charge is posted, payment in full is required.
    • Returned payments due to insufficient funds may jeopardize your application.
    • You will have five business days from the notification of insufficient payment to submit another payment to the Office of Student Accounts.
    • Failure to make a payment will result in the cancellation of your summer housing assignment.
• For any inquiries regarding billing or this process, please reach out to the Office of Student Accounts at [email protected] or call (860) 297-2028.
• Combination of Payment Options: Please review the notes for each category.
• Payment is required for all weeks that your belongings occupy your summer housing assignment, regardless of your physical presence (i.e., you will still be charged for housing if you are away for a week or weekend vacation).
• Please note that summer housing is billed based on full weeks (Sunday to Saturday), regardless of mid-week move-in or move-out dates. Below is the list of billable weeks:

• • 05/10/26 – 05/16/26
  • 05/17/26 – 05/23/26
  • 05/24/26 – 05/30/26

• Summer residents will not move to their summer housing assignments until they receive notification from the Bantam Network.
  • During this transition, summer residents will continue to reside in their Spring 2026 housing.
• Most residents can expect to be contacted with their summer housing assignments between the end of April and the beginning of May.
  • Summer residents are required to be on campus and prepared to move into their summer assignment before leaving campus, prior to June. Please do not make plans to leave campus before you have moved over.
    • Moves must occur within 1–2 days of receiving notification.

• All summer housing applications will be announced during the spring semester. Applications submitted after this deadline will not be reviewed.
• If you need to withdraw or make changes to your application (for example, altering your starting or ending dates), please notify the Bantam Network at [email protected] as soon as possible. Failing to do so will result in a $100 late withdrawal fee.
• Summer residents who leave their housing earlier than planned without proper notice may still be required to pay the housing fee based on the original end date.
• It is essential to carefully read the summer housing application and complete all sections. Notifications regarding room assignments will be sent to your Trinity College email account once your room is ready for occupancy.
• Access to your summer housing assignment will be programmed only for the dates specified in your summer housing application.

Summer residents will be accommodated on campus, with specific placements determined by the Bantam Network team prior to the summer.

If you would like to request roommates, please ensure that all individuals are applying for summer housing separately and indicating their preferred roommates.

Important Steps:

• All applicants should submit their summer housing applications as soon as possible.
• If there are any conflicting roommate requests, those requests will be considered invalid, so maintain open communication with your preferred roommates.
• Roommate requests are not guaranteed.
• A group assignment will not be processed until all applications from each group member are received.
• If a room does not reach its full capacity, the Bantam Network reserves the right to fill any vacancies throughout the summer.
