Intern / Co-op Housing Program
Housing is available for college-age students year-round who are interning or co-oping at businesses in Pella and the surrounding communities.
The housing program utilizes townhouses on the Central College campus. The program houses interns/co-ops in designated townhouses with other interns, separate from summer staff and event participants.
The townhouses are similar to dorm-style living on a smaller basis. Every two rooms share a bathroom which is outside the rooms. Each house has a shared living area — and also has a shared kitchen that includes a refrigerator, microwave and stove. Individuals are allowed to bring in a “dorm” style refrigerator to keep in their room if they’d like.
Cost will be $160.00 per week for a private room or $100.00 per week when sharing a room, prices effective Jan. 1, 2025. The majority of the rooms have two beds. Roommate preferences are recommended. Housing is available year-round with more rooms available in the summer months. Our primary summer season is from May 18, 2025 to August 9, 2025 with limited availability for later stays.

- Use of the Central College athletics complex fitness center (during normal summer operating hours) and Maytag Student Center fitness center available 24/7
