All Columbia residence hall rooms come with:

  • bed and mattress
  • desk and chair
  • chest of drawers
  • closet or wardrobe
  • bookshelf or shelving units
  • ceiling lamp
  • trash can
  • mirror
  • ROLM Phone

You need to bring everything else, which may include:

  • Electronics
    • Computer
    • Ethernet cord - bring at least a 50 ft cable if you're living in Carman
    • Cell phone - provided ROLM phones are never used
    • Power strips or extension cords - some rooms, like in Carman provide as little as one pair of outlets per person
    • Desk lamp
    • George Foreman mini-grill (actually illegal in residence halls)
    • Mini-fridge

  • Bed/Bath
    • Bed risers
    • Bedding
    • Mattress pad

    • Bathrobe
    • Towel
    • Under the bed drawers

The best place to look for which items are legal or illegal in the residence halls is Housing's Guide to Living.
