Mattresses/Sheets:
1.
What size
are the beds?
·
The beds on
campus are all twin sized. Most of them
are the standard length (36” x 75”), although we are increasing
the number of extra long mattresses in all halls. Floyd Hall, Peery
Hall, Stuart Hall, Trinkle Hall, Muse, Ingles Hall and Madison Hall
all have extra long mattresses (36” x 80”).
2. Are extra
long beds available?
·
Extra long beds
are available for a limited number of people. We give highest priority for longer bed
frames to those individuals who are 6’2” or taller in height.
3. What size
sheets do you recommend?
·
Bringing sheets that
are extra long is the best idea, regardless of the bed length. Many students bring egg crate foam
mattress pads and mattress covers to make their beds more comfortable. Extra long sheets can accommodate the
extra thickness of these items with the slick surface of the mattress.
4. Can I
bring my own mattress from home?
·
You can bring a
twin-size mattress if you would like.
Some students use the University mattress like a box spring and add
a mattress on top. The RU mattress
must stay in the room.
