Bedding is the last thing to buy

UTSA mixes 39-by-80-inch Twin XL and 54-by-75-inch Full mattresses. The assignment communication names the size, and nothing before it does.

Bed and room basics

Mattresses are either 39-by-80-inch Twin XL or 54-by-75-inch Full. Room type, bathroom, kitchen, air conditioning and storage vary, so wait for the exact assignment before buying bedding, rugs, organizers, furniture or shared appliances.

Pack these first

Bedding in the size named in the assignment
Towels, toiletries and a shower caddy
Laundry and cleaning supplies
Something for San Antonio heat
Approved surge protection

Rules and smart skips

Coordinate all kitchenette and bathroom supplies with roommates.
Open flames and exposed burners are prohibited.
Use the building-specific checklist for refrigerator size, microwave, rice cooker, air fryer and toaster oven rather than assuming the campus-wide list applies identically.

Before move-in

Pack lightly and follow the Housing assignment and building instructions.
Arrive during the scheduled appointment.
Bring UTSA identification and label belongings.
Confirm the unloading and parking routes before traveling.
