Housing and Offices for Visitors in ResidenceHousingVisiting Fellows associated with the Kellogg Institute, at their option, may lease a furnished on-campus faculty apartment administered by the Notre Dame office of Business Operations. Accommodation in the apartments may sometimes be available for Guest Scholars. Leasing arrangements should be coordinated well in advance through Denise Wright (dwright1@nd.edu). One month’s rent is required to reserve an apartment. Checks should be made out to "University of Notre Dame" and mailed to Denise's attention. This deposit will be applied to the first month’s rent. In the event of a cancellation, Business Operations requires a 30-day notice or the deposit will be forfeited, in whole or in part (prorated based on the days less than 30). University policy for apartment occupancy states that only Visiting faculty and their immediate families (spouse and/or children) may live in on-campus faculty apartments. Pets are not allowed. Guests or other non-immediate family members (in-laws, nieces/ nephews, etc.) may visit for brief stays only. Exceptions to this policy will be made only under extenuating circumstances and must be approved well in advance by the director of asset management, Office of Business Operations. Requests for exceptions due to special circumstances should be directed through Luis Canales, assistant director of the Institute. Six, one-bedroom and four, two-bedroom units with living rooms, bathrooms, and kitchenettes are available. Two-bedroom units are reserved for visitors who come with families. One single-bedroom unit is equipped to serve physically disabled visitors. A one-bedroom apartment rents for $880 per month and a two-bedroom apartment for $1,100 per month (prices as of 2008) Please note that the above are estimated costs. As part of the visiting fellowship, the Institute subsidizes $250 of the monthly rent. There is no charge for cable television. Apartment furnishings include pillows, bed linens, blankets, bedspreads, towels, dishes, cookware, and utensils. Each apartment is equipped with a television and kitchen appliances including a refrigerator, stove, oven, and microwave; some apartments have a dishwasher. Laundry facilities are available in the building. International long distance service is not available in the Hesburgh residences. The Kellogg Institute will provide you with a $10 international calling card upon your arrival. Should you need additional cards, they can be purchased at area stores. Each apartment is Ethernet-wired for Internet connectivity. Please do not attempt to use a modem from the residences as the digital phone system may cause damage to your modem. The Kellogg Institute will supply Ethernet cards and cables for your laptop if needed. All residents are required to sign a lease and an inventory inspection document at the time of occupancy.

Long-Distance Telephone Service in Hesburgh Center OfficesAll visitors occupying offices are allowed up to $50 per billing period of long-distance office phone calls at no charge. Once this amount is spent, visitors will be charged accordingly for all calls above and beyond this sum. Please note that it is Institute policy that each Visiting Fellow or Guest Scholar is required to pay a $100 deposit for long-distance service. Failure to pay this deposit upon occupancy of your office will lead to curtailment of long-distance telephone service. The $100 deposit will be reimbursed after the last billing.
