Where do most students live? Are there dorms?
Most students live off-campus, in shared apartments in Cambridge or a nearby town. The GSD has 40 rooms available to its students in the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences dorms. An application for one of those rooms is included in admission packets. Returning students are also eligible to apply for those dorm rooms, although preference is given to incoming students. Another graduate dorm, Cronkhite, is also available to our students, as is university-owned housing. The Harvard Housing Office handles university-owned housing. Harvard Housing also has listings of apartments that are available locally (not Harvard-owned). Many students find housing through these listings. The GSD also has an on-line housing bulletin board available to Design School students.
