Housing for DC interns

The College has set up access to limited amount of low-cost housing near Washington D.C.  I heard they were located in places such as Arlington, Alexandria, etc.  This is open to both undergraduate and graduate students.  My understanding is that you need letters from the internship place and the College to get in.  Contact the College career centre for details.
