Welcome Graduate Students

The George Washington University is pleased to offer both on-campus and off-campus housing options to graduate students.  Our Law, Medical, Graduate and Professional Degree students enjoy living in a safe, diverse community in close proximity to all of the University’s schools and colleges.

Columbia Plaza Housing Program

The Columbia Plaza Housing Program is an off-campus apartment complex that continues to be an attractive option for incoming graduate students. GW students seeking off-campus housing through this program do not have to demonstrate the minimum income requirements necessary of those non-GW students applying to live in the building.  The Columbia Plaza Housing Program is not available to undergraduate students.

The Aston

GW Housing Programs is pleased to offer the Aston as an option for 1L First Year Law  students. Located at 1129 New Hampshire Avenue, conveniently located in the prestigious West End neighborhood of Washington, the Aston provides safe, affordable residence-hall living convenient to GW Law School.

Other Off Campus Housing Resources

The Office of Off-Campus Student Affairs offers a list of off-campus apartment options to help you start your search for housing near and around GW's campus. This list was generated by compiling area buildings and communities that GW students have found.

Students may also find the GradLife website a useful tool to search other apartment listings and use the graduate student message boards.
