Room Furniture

Dorm room showing two beds.
 
All residence hall rooms are furnished with a bed frame (adjustable height), mattress, desk, chair, and closet or wardrobe per student. Additionally, each room comes with its own fridge or mini-fridge (size depends on the room type).  All furniture must stay in your room. Removing any furniture from your room may result in a charge. All residence hall beds are capable of being bunked. Please find the dimensions of our two bed sizes below.
