Graduation weekend at Howard University We haven't yet confirmed the ceremony venue for Howard University from its own commencement page, so the walk times here run to campus only.
Rooms close to campus tend to go first for commencement, often months ahead and with a two-night minimum. If the walkable ones are gone, sort the list by the 10-minute drive chip and look one town over. Our graduation weekend guide covers timing.

Worth doing before you book
Look at your tour confirmation: the meeting spot can differ by day or by program. Ask the hotel about parking; near many campuses it costs extra or is off site. Touring two schools in one day? Leave room for lunch and the drive between them. For move-in or graduation, ask about minimum stays and the cancellation deadline.

Each button runs an Amazon search for that item with the school's name filled in.
