Beds
The mattress size is 39" x 80" x 6 1/2" (twin extra long). Regular twin sheets won't fit the mattress so be sure to bring twin XL bedding.
The bed frames offer adjustable height settings which you can self-adjust:
- 1st notch off the floor (lowest setting) provides 13" between the floor and the bottom of the bed
- 2nd notch off the floor (middle setting) provides approximately 18" between the floor and the bottom of the bed
- 3rd notch off the floor provides 23" between the floor and the bottom of the bed
Students may also want to have their bed lofted or bunked. Lofted beds allow furniture such as the desk, chair, and dresser to fit underneath. Requests to loft or bunk your bed must be submitted via a Facilities work order request to Facilities Services. Additionally, Facilities staff will be available to loft/bunk the bed if desired on Move-in Day (August 19).
Beds may also be lifted off the ground by using bed risers, which the College does not provide. Bed risers can raise the bed approximately six additional inches off the ground and should not be used in conjunction with bunked or lofted beds.
Lofted Option
Lofting your bed allows furniture such as your dresser, desk, and desk chair to slide underneath your bed. There is approximately 48-54 inches of clearance between the bottom of the mattress and floor, depending on which notch the frame is attached to.
Bunked Option
Bunked beds are one bed bunked on top of the other, thus leaving storage space only under the bottom bed.
Residential rooms are equipped with single beds, desks, desk chairs, dressers, closet space, window shades, mattresses, and trash and recycling containers.
- Residents may arrange furniture within their rooms in a reasonable and safe manner; providing that all furniture is returned to its original location when the space is vacated.
- The arrangement of furniture cannot block or restrict egress from the bed/bedroom to the door.
- College staff reserves the right to limit the number of furnishings in an individual room if the amount or location of furniture is excessive.
- Furniture may not be moved from one room to another within residence halls or from one apartment to another.
- Unused furniture resulting from a vacancy in a room may not be moved into the hallways, common areas or storage.
- Furnishings provided for lounges, study rooms, and recreation areas may not be moved into students' rooms. College staff are authorized to return furniture to its proper location.
- Unauthorized possession of College property could result in conduct action.
- When vacating a room, remove all non-College furniture. Failure to do so will result in a removal fee.
