Virginia Tech adds additional student, faculty housing options in the Washington, D.C., area

From: Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost, Office of the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer

Virginia Tech has secured an agreement with Marymount University (MU) to offer housing options for Virginia Tech faculty, staff, and domestic and international (requiring only an I-20 credential) students in the greater Washington, D.C., area. This agreement makes available residences located at MU’s Ballston Campus Apartments at Placemakr located at 1008 North Glebe Road, Arlington, VA 22201 – just a five-minute walk from the Virginia Tech Research Center in Arlington.

Virginia Tech now has three housing agreements in place in the D.C. area. Select properties, pricing, options, and experiences are available and those interested are encouraged to contact the companies directly.

Placemakr Marymount Ballston:

Placemakr offers studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments with shared room options. These apartments are fully furnished, with utilities and amenities included in the monthly rent. For more information, please visit the Placemakr Marymount Ballston webpage,


Dweck Properties/VT HOUSING:

Dweck Properties is student community-focused and best for those needing longer leases, wanting to be around university students (Virginia Tech and non-Virginia Tech), close to the Metro train stations, and in areas that are/or will become more central to our academic locations- VTRC-A, WAAC, and the Innovation Campus. They are also creating a Virginia Tech block of apartments in those properties to help build community and can work with groups.


National Corporate Housing - VT Housing Solutions:

National Corporate Housing has the potential to serve shorter-term, transitional lease terms (such as for intern experiences) and for those who need location-specific property. For more information, email Hokies@NationalCorporateHousing.com, call 703.464.5700, or contact National Corporate Housing’s Virginia Tech representative:

In addition to these Virginia Tech-focused housing communities, the DC Off-Campus Housing website lists other market-rate housing available in the region.
