Utilities and Housing Policy
In 2022-2023, seminary housing options included townhouse, apartment, and house rentals that range from $775 to $1050 per month, depending upon the location and number of bedrooms. A bedroom in the Friendship House rents for $295. Utilities are included, except cable and internet. The seminary provides internet service for the Friendship House. The apartments and houses are wired for cable and internet but those costs aren’t included in the rent. See Housing Policy.
TownHouses
The townhouses on campus are especially attractive to families with young children. They encircle a commons area with picnic tables, a playground, and plenty of room for gatherings. The townhouses are available in 1, 2, and 3 bedroom units, and each includes air conditioning, a washer and dryer, as well as major kitchen appliances. Handicapped accessible units are available.
The Friendship House
In 2007 the Ralph and Cheryl Schregardus Friendship House opened, offering a unique housing option. This is the first residence of its kind among seminaries across the U.S. The Ralph and Cheryl Schregardus Friendship House accommodates 18 seminary students (including a resident director) and six people with cognitive disabilities. Each young adult shares an apartment with three seminary students, engaging in friendships yet functioning independently.
