Townhouses

University townhouses are located on 36th, 37th, O, N, and Prospect Streets, just outside Georgetown’s main gates. These residences function as on-campus housing while offering a more independent living experience. Each townhouse has a unique layout with different sizes, floor plans, and resident capacities. Some houses carry historic designations from the Georgetown Historical Society.

Students choose townhouses for the combination of campus proximity and the services that come with university housing, while enjoying the increased autonomy of townhouse-style living.

Community Directors are professional live-in staff members employed by the University. These professionals work directly with students, Residential Ministers, Faculty-in-Residence and campus partners to create a formative living learning environment for our students. Community Directors oversee the Resident Assistant staff within their residential community and develop and implement community educational plans.

Resident Assistants

Resident Assistants (RAs) are student leaders who live in our campus communities and help create a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment for all residents. From hosting programs to offering guidance and responding in times of need, RAs play a vital role in shaping the Georgetown residential experience.

Building Security

Each residence has its own access door with a lock that residents are encouraged to secure at all times.
