Living and Working Short-term residents research, write, and pursue their particular craft at their own rhythm. They enjoy the option of joining long-term resident scholars for weekly luncheons and social events. Housing and Facilities The Collegeville Institute was designed by the world-class architect, Marcel Breuer, and consists of a lakeside cluster of ten apartments and an administrative center. Nestled quietly among trees on a lovely lakeshore, the Collegeville Institute is especially conducive to intellectual reflection, creativity, and prayer. The apartments are attractive, cozy, and easy to maintain. They are well-furnished, including linens kitchens with complete sets of dishes, flatware, and cooking utensils. Central heating and air conditioning keep the apartments comfortable and each apartment has a brick fireplace. Each apartment includes a television and access to wireless Internet. Because of our wildlife refuge status, we are unable to accommodate pets. For more information, please visit the Practical Information page, or read About Us.
