住房 & 居住生活

常见问题

How soon should I apply for housing?

早期应用!  You should apply as soon as you are admitted to the University.  我们的申请是在线的.

Assignments are made based on the date the housing application is received. 应用ing early increases your chance of having your assignment requests met.

我可以自己一个人住吗?

也许. There are a limited number of single rooms available in Main Hall. Residential College features private bedrooms, with a shared living room and kitchen.  All other rooms are double occupancy.  If space becomes available in your double-occupancy room, you may request it as private. Private rooms are granted on a space-available basis and are not available until 5 p.m. 第一天上课.  All students requesting a private room must sign the “Private Room Form,” available in the 住房 office.  The form must be submitted each semester.

我可以个性化我的房间吗?

是的! You may have just about anything in your room 除了 a microwave (unless it is part of a UM Micro Fridge unit), 宠物(除非是鱼), or any type of open-coil heating device (space heater, 热板, 等.). Borders (painted or wallpaper) are prohibited.  Be careful with how you place items on the walls.  Nails are not allowed in the residence halls (除了 for a few small nails in New Hall because of the type walls in that building).

When will I get information on my room and roommate?

住房 and roommate information will be e-mailed to you in mid to late May.  The information will include your hall, room number, and contact information for your roommate.

What if I don’t get along with my roommate or don’t like the hall to which I’ve been assigned?

You may change rooms during Room Change Days. They begin the third day of classes and last for about three weeks.  We ask that you not request a room change until that time. 住房 & 居住生活 wants you to be happy with your living arrangement and encourages you to take an active part in pursuing a comfortable and fulfilling on-campus life!

What furnishings will be in my room?

Each room is furnished with a bed, mattress, desk, and chair for each resident in the room.  Each room also has blinds and closets or wardrobes.

What things must I leave at home?

Air conditioners * Candles * Incense * Electric Blankets * Electric Fry Pan * Electric Grills * Electric Heaters * Firearms/weapons *  Fireworks * Halogen lamps * Heating Pads * Hot Plates * Lava Lamps * Sun Lamp * Water Bed*  (The 宿舍手册 includes a complete list of prohibited items.) Air fryers are only allowed in halls that have kitchens in the room (College Creek Apartments, 学院公园公寓, 新堂及派克堂).

What do I do if I have a disability-related housing or dietary request for living in the residence halls?
