Housing & Travel

Housing

On-campus accommodations are available in partnership with TAMU Residence Life in recently updated dorms a short walk from Cushing Library. The cost is approximately $55 per night (exact price to be determined). The dorms are located near the popular Northgate neighborhood adjacent to campus, where there are several restaurants, coffee shops, and entertainment establishments within a couple of blocks. Arrangements for these accommodations can be made through Cushing Library as part of the registration process.

Workshop participants may also seek accommodations through services such as Airbnb, or stay in one of the many local hotels. Please note that if you choose to stay off campus, and plan to drive to campus, you will need to arrange for a temporary parking pass with the campus parking office. If you choose to stay off campus, please let us know when you register for the workshop. You are responsible for your own reservations if you stay off campus.

Commuter flights to Easterwood Airport in College Station, minutes from the A&M campus, are available on United from Houston Intercontinental airport and on American from Dallas/Fort Worth. If you fly into Easterwood Airport, cab fare from the airport to the campus or nearby is about $12.00.
