If you are a teacher, you know how important it is to continuously update your skills and add to your knowledge base to be successful in the classroom. Taking summer courses is a great way to do this, and with our one and two-week summer institutes for teachers, it’s easier than ever. And now, for the first time, we are able to offer on-campus housing for students taking these accelerated courses, so you save the time you would have spent commuting, and can easily walk to class each day!

![SimondsHall](https://blog.fitchburgstate.edu/hs-fs/hubfs/SimondsHall.jpeg?width=600&name=SimondsHall.jpeg)**Step One:** Make sure we have the kinds of courses you need. You can [**view our institute courses**](https://www.fitchburgstate.edu/academics/graduate-online-continuing-education/coursesforteachers/), and if you find what you need, take the next step!

**Step Two:** [**Register for your classes**](https://www.fitchburgstate.edu/offices-services-directory/registrar/try-a-course/). This generates your student ID, which will give you access to the course and make you eligible for housing.

**Step Three:** [**Contact us in GCE**](mailto:gce@fitchburgstate.edu) and let us know you’re seeking on-campus housing. Please provide the following information in your email:

- Name
- Your Fitchburg State ID number
- Your Fitchburg State Email address (issued upon course registration)
- Phone/Cell #
- Course(s) you’re taking

We’ll confirm your registration, and once we are certain the course is running, we’ll forward your information to [Housing & Residential Services](https://www.fitchburgstate.edu/offices-services-directory/housing-and-residential-services/), who will work out the details for arrival, check-in, and payment. Here’s what the housing package looks like:

- **Cost:** $45 per person/per night; optional linen packet $20/week (no taxes);   
  total amount due prior to check-in
- **Room:** Single bedroom apartment w/kitchen and private bathroom
- **Food:** Continental breakfast and lunch available (not included in price)
- **Wifi:** Available, included in housing

We hope you can join us for a summer institute this year!
