Your Residence Hall Packing Guide

Welcome to the University Residences community! As you prepare to start your journey as a Boilermaker, it’s important to know what is provided in your room and what you should bring. Please visit the Facilities Guidelines webpage and review the Room/Apartment Information section to learn about the Items Provided by University Residences, Prohibited Items/Appliances, appropriate Appliance Usage and Room Modification expectations, among other important information. If you have a roommate, we recommend that you communicate with them to find what’s best for your shared space.

We've compiled a list of recommended items from our residents and tour guides to help make moving into University Residences easy. All items linked below are available through Amazon.

Looking for some inspiration? Check out our photos below for ideas on how to decorate your room. The first 3 photos feature our showrooms that were decorated from items purchased on Amazon as featured above. The other photos were taken from the rooms of our very own Boilermakers living in our halls. 

Please visit our residence halls page, click on any individual hall to see room dimensions and what furnishings come with each space. (Please note: No furniture provided by University Residences may be removed from the space.)
