Fall 2024 Move In Information

All rooms are furnished with a bed, desk with chair, dresser, closet or wardrobe, and microfridge. All mattresses are twin extra long, except in Gateway Village where they are regular twin mattresses. Areas with common space, such as living rooms, also have those spaces furnished as appropriate. 

All furnishings provided in the room/suite/apartment/townhouse are expected to remain in that location and should not be removed to accommodate personal property. Storage space is not available during the academic year. Any furniture missing at the time of a student's departure will result in a replacement charge billed to the student's account.

Free standing loft-style furniture and bunk beds may be modified to fit personal needs but all parts must be stored in the assigned living space. Please note: beds are NOT able to be lofted in Gateway nor in the Quad buildings (Berkshire, Franklin, and Hampden) near the wifi routers. 

The University provides a combined microwave-refrigerator unit (one per room) in Berkshire, Commonwealth, Franklin, Hampden, and Windham Halls. In each of these locations, students are limited to bringing one additional refrigerator which must not exceed 3.5 cubic feet in size. Students are not permitted to bring their own microwaves to campus if they reside in these locations. 

Residents of LaRiviere Living and Learning Center are provided with a full-size refrigerator and a microwave in the common living room of each suite, as well as access to a microwave in the common areas of the wings in LaRiviere. These items are the collective responsibility of the residents of the suite. Residents of Evergreen Village, Gateway Village, and Southwood Hall are also provided with a full-size refrigerator, but are not provided with a microwave.

Cooking appliances (such as microwaves, toaster ovens, electric grills) are permitted only in Evergreen Village, Gateway Village, and Southwood Hall, which have complete kitchens as part of each living unit.

Drugs or any illegal substances, firearms and weapons of any type, explosive agents, and fireworks are strictly prohibited. Other devices that present a clear and present danger to the welfare of others (such as paintball guns, sling shots) are not allowed, unless part of an authorized campus event. 

Please review the suggested items that you may want to bring to campus, as well as items that you should not bring to campus.

An option for low cost property insurance is available through National Student Services, Inc. at https://www.nssi.com/. Their toll free number is 1-800-256-6774. While there are a number of plans on the market and the University does not particularly endorse any one of these, it is highly recommended that students secure some type of personal property insurance, particularly if there is not coverage through a homeowner's policy already. The University does not assume any responsibility or liability for a student's personal belongings or property.
