Graduate Student Housing at FSILGs

Graduate Student Housing At FSILGs

Several of the fraternities, sororities, and independent living groups (FSILGs) at the Institute have housing available for graduate students. The buildings are located in Boston, Brookline, and Cambridge. Some houses are just offering furnished rooms while others are interested in recruiting graduate students as full members.

Below is a table listing the houses that have space available, a contact person for each house, and some additional information. All rooms include access to MIT's network.

There is a list of all FSILGs (and a map showing their locations) here.
