West Virginia University
📍 Morgantown, WV
Quick take
Check the exact building and room assignment before ordering bedding, appliances, or storage. Campus-wide guesses are how perfectly good money gets wasted.
Bed and room basics
Most residence halls use Twin XL mattresses. Seneca Hall uses standard Twin, while Oakland Apartments use Full XL and need Full XL sheets. Confirm your building before ordering bedding. Room furnishings and layouts vary by community. Hills and weather make practical shoes a very good idea.
Pack these first
- Bedding matched to the assigned hall
- Rain gear, winter layers, and comfortable walking shoes
- Laundry, shower, and desk supplies
Rules and smart skips
- Personal refrigerators may be no more than 3.2 cubic feet. Fridges under 3.2 cu ft
- Current rules allow one rented MicroFridge plus one personal mini refrigerator per room.
- Review the assigned hall page for appliance and furniture details.
Morgantown has hills. Your rolling cart is about to earn its keep.
Before move-in
- Confirm the building, room type, mattress, and provided furniture.
- Read the latest official move-in and prohibited-items guidance.
- Decide who is bringing shared appliances and cleaning supplies.
- Measure first, shop second, avoid explaining a giant rug to your family later.
