Montana State University
📍 Bozeman, MT
Quick take
Confirm your exact hall and room before buying anything bulky. Housing details can change, and the assignment page always wins.
Bed and room basics
Most halls use Twin XL mattresses, while Quads and Roskie may use standard Twin. Confirm the building before ordering bedding. Residence hall rooms generally include a bed, desk, chair, closet, dresser or storage, and a wastebasket.
Pack these first
- Bedding matched to the assigned hall
- Cold-weather layers and sturdy shoes
- Laundry, shower, and study supplies
Rules and smart skips
- University furniture must remain in the room.
- MicroFridge rentals are available, so coordinate before buying appliances.
- Use the official hall page for building-specific restrictions.
Bozeman weather has range. Your packing list should too.
Before move-in
- Open your housing assignment and confirm the building, room type, mattress, and included furniture.
- Review the current move-in instructions and prohibited-items list.
- Talk with your roommate before purchasing appliances, rugs, or cleaning gear.
- Measure first. Dorm rooms are excellent at making oversized purchases look ridiculous.
