Some residence hall rooms do have carpeting while others do not; this feature varies from floor to floor within each residence hall. As a result, you may find it best to wait until you have moved in and seen your room before you decide whether or not to purchase carpet.

Housing regulations prohibit the removal of any university furniture (beds, desks, tables, dressers, chairs, etc) from residence hall rooms. In addition, if you have a roommate, please remember to be considerate of his/her need for space within your room.
The university does not provide insurance for your personal belongings. We recommend that you review your parents’ homeowners’ insurance to check for coverage of items that you bring to campus. Renter’s insurance may be available through their policy for little or no charge.
