Overnight Policy

Students are permitted overnight guests in their room, provided that the guests do not infringe on the living rights of other roommates and do not violate Georgetown University policies.  Our residential spaces are, however, primarily to promote the academic and co-curricular successes of our students.

All residents are responsible for the conduct of their guests and can be held accountable through the Student Code of Conduct (for more information, please read Category A8 of the Student Code of Conduct).  The University reserves the right to remove guests who violate University regulations.

According to Category A20 of the Student Code of Conduct, "A resident’s privilege to have a guest in the room may not interfere with a roommate’s right to privacy, sleep and quiet study space. Overnight visits should only occur on a limited and infrequent basis not to exceed three (3) consecutive nights and only with the consent of the others sharing the room/apartment. Cohabitation, which is defined as overnight visits with a sexual partner, is incompatible both with the Catholic character of the University and with the rights of the roommates."
