Lincoln Laboratory has secured discounted housing for interns living more than 50 miles from Lexington, Massachusetts, in partnership with Northeastern University. Eligible interns will be offered a private bedroom in a shared apartment in their West Village apartments for 11 weeks. The earliest move-in date is Sunday, May 17, 2026, and the final move-out date is Saturday, August 8, 2026, to give the universities time to prepare their dorms for full-time students. The weekly rent for summer 2026 is $420. Rent will be deducted from the interns' weekly paycheck for the duration of their stay. The earliest start date for interns who choose to stay at Northeastern this summer is Wednesday, May 20, 2026.

Based on this information, do you plan to register and stay in the dorms at Northeastern University with other non-local interns? If you select “Yes” – you will receive an email with housing information and a link to register in mid-February.
