On-Campus Housing

OIMB has dormitories that can house 50 people and has an additional five family cottages, a four-unit apartment building, and a studio apartment. Demand is highest in the spring and summer. Due to high student enrollments in summer, visiting faculty and seminar speakers receive priority when determining housing availability. Contact Laura Screen for any housing inquiries.
