Student Housing at Madison is located on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus in the Christian Science Organization building - more photos of the building can be seen on the CSO Website.

The Madison House, now called Concord House, is no longer an Asher House. Asher's By-laws require that Asher houses be for Christian Science college students only. The Student Center Foundation, which owns the CSO building, has graciously decided to let students from other religions live in their facility. Of course, Christian Science college students are still welcomed and live together with the students of other faiths. Please contact the Madison House Manager directly for further information and an application.

The Student Center Foundation shares its block with several other religious ministries serving the student population, and all are surrounded by UW-Madison campus buildings. It is a short walk to the grand Memorial Student Union, where you can sit on the patio watching the sailboats - or ice boats -on beautiful Lake Mendota, the largest of Madison's lakes. We are close to major bus routes, including the free campus bus. Other schools in the area include Edgewood College and Madison Area Technical College.

The CSO building was designed by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright and built in the late 1970's. The second floor residence can welcome up to 14 students in 7 single or double rooms. The furnished rooms each have a loft for separate sleeping/study areas. Residents are responsible for their own food and meals, but sharing meal prep is more fun. The residents enjoy free laundry facilities, cable TV and movies in the TV lounge, wireless internet access, house phones for local calls, and secure bike storage. The main floor includes multi-use rooms, office space, and a Christian Science library for resident, CSO and Foundation use. Garage parking below the building is generally available for an extra fee.

GUEST ROOM
Visitors are welcome to stay the night in the guest room. There is a $35 charge per night.
