Packing Tips
Coordinate with your roommate(s)
Bring less than you think — space fills quickly
Wait to purchase extras until after move-in
Focus on comfort and function
Avoid bulky or rarely used items
Microfridge
Consider leasing a MicroFridge to use in your residence hall room. This is the only microwave allowed for use in our residence halls, and you won’t have to transport or store this large appliance between semesters, or sell one after graduation. Please visit the Refrigerator Leasing Company website for information
