Dorms

SBD students reside in Ebert Hall, located on the MBLcampus in the immediate area of the classroom, laboratories, library, and dining hall. The Brick Apartments and Dorms are accessed by ID cards by residents only. A short walk brings students into the heart of Woods Hole Village and to the local swimming beach, park and tennis courts.

Depending on the yearly availability, there may be two options for housing in apartments or dorms. Each apartment consists of two double rooms, a bathroom, living room and kitchen, as well as a screened porch.

Closets provide additional storage space. Ebert Hall includes a first floor lounge area with fireplace and first floor sun-porch for social and recreational gatherings.

Students with bikes may lock them at one of the many outdoor bike racks on the MBLcampus, or obtain card-access to an indoor secure bike storage facility which offers locker rooms and additional showers. MBLmay have bikes available for students to borrow during the term depending on the number of students and other course needs.
