A brief description of the incentives or programs:

In summer of 2012, AU started a Live Near Your Work Program. This program awards grants for down payments and closing costs to staff and faculty living near the university. Grants are determined based on the location and proximity of the purchased home to the university as determined by the DC Office of Planning. AU will be continuing the pilot program through 2014.
