Vendor Information
Mini-Fridge Units
For the 2023-2024 academic year, MicroChill units (combination of a mini-fridge and microwave) are available for rent in our traditional residence halls through our approved vendor CollegeProducts.com. As a reminder, these combination units are set up specifically to work in a way such that the refrigerator portion is suspended while the microwave is in use. Order by August 1st to have your unit delivered before your arrival.
Students interested in bringing their own units may do so, however, only a mini-fridge will be accepted, but not a separate microwave. Use of the combination units are approved via our Fire Safety guidelines and students are not allowed to bring in microwave units of their own.
Small woodframe houses (e.g., Fraternity/Sorority, Special Interest/Theme, and Language houses) as well as apartment-style locations (e.g., CoHos, Latin Way, Sophia Gordon, Hillside, 9-11 Sunset and 10 Winthrop) serve a smaller population with access to a full kitchen. If students are interested in renting or purchasing a smaller unit for their individual space, they may do so.
