1. When will I receive the room assignment?
That information will be mailed
in early August. It will include the name, address and telephone
number of the assigned roommate(s) to assist in coordination of
move-in.
2. I received my bill already and
I am paying for a double, does that mean that my son/daughter is not
crowded?
No. The bill you received reflects
standard room charges. In the event that your son or daughter is
assigned to a crowded space, that information is included with the
assignment as well as information about the discount. The discount
applies if a student is offered a standard room after September
30 and the credit will be reflected in subsequent bills.
3. Are there any facilities on campus
for refrigerator rental?
No. We
do not provide these services. However, in the fall a few upperclassmen
offer to sell their used refrigerators for a nominal fee. Students
tell us the best retailers for the small units are Sam’s Warehouse,
BJ’s Wholesale Club, or Sears.
4. Can I bring a microwave
or toaster oven?
No. Our residential
facilities do not have enough power for such appliances nor or they
safe in such large residential settings. The Fire Marshal will do
periodic safety inspections and confiscate items which are not allowed
on campus.
5. Can I bring a loft?
We are sorry, but you must use the furniture that is assigned to
the room. Lofts, except for those provided by the college, are not
allowed. Nazareth College does not have storage facilities so you
may want to set up you room before adding other furniture. It can
get a bit crowded.
6. What if my son or daughter needs
help? Is there someone to turn to for assistance?
Yes. A Resident Assistant lives on each floor and is trained to
handle student concerns. If her/she is not able to help, they will
make an appropriate referral.
7. Are there ways to get involved
in residence halls?
Yes. There is a residence
hall council which operates under the student government. Resident
Assistants plan programs and activities and are always looking for
input. A student with ideas should feel free to speak to the RA
or stop in the Residential Life Office on the first floor of Kearney.
8. Do I need to bring a telephone?
Yes. Computer Services advises bringing
a telephone with a cord. Cordless phones in the densely populated
residence setting interfere with other telephones. Do not bring
an answering machine. The telephone service comes with voice mail.
9. What size are the beds?
The beds are standard twin and you do not need extra-long sheets.
We have a very limited number of extra long mattresses available
upon request.
10. My son/daughter is an athlete
and will be coming early. Will the room be ready?
Student athletes generally move into
the space they have been assigned, barring unforeseen circumstances,
any new construction will be completed by the date athletes are
slated to arrive.
