Taking Care of Your Home
— Bunk/Loft
Residence Life - girl reading of floor
Bunking/Lofting Options

Bed Configuration Requests: The most popular option for students with shared bedrooms is a bunked bed configuration, the standard room set-up. If you and your roommate wish to have your beds lofted or debunked prior to your arrival, you may make this request in advance on-line.  Alterations to bed configurations must be done by Residence Life maintenance personnel.

Floor Plans and Room Dimensions

To view floor plans and room dimensions of various bed configurations, click on the links below:


Lofting/Debunking Request Form
Every effort will be made to honor requests submitted before mid-August. If you and your roommate prefer to have a bunked bed configuration, no action is needed. If you have medical conditions which make it inadvisable to sleep on a top bunk or loft, please discuss with your roommate the bed configuration that would serve you best. Each roommate must submit a Loft/Debunking request form.

There is no charge for the first bed configuration requests.  A $50.00 charge per student will apply for subsequent requests.

Students who currently live on campus need not be present when staff alter the bed configuration, however all personal belongings must  be removed from the desk, dresser, beds, and the immediate area near the beds.  If rooms are not prepared accordingly, the request may not be completed.



Traditional Apartments
Buildings 3312-3334

Beds will be in a bunked formation unless otherwise requested. It is not necessary to submit a bunk/lofting request if you and your roommate prefer to have your beds bunked.

Options available:
  1. Bunked beds - standard room set-up
    Most students prefer having the beds in their room bunked to allow for more floor space and versatility in terms of arranging your room.  This configuration provides the most efficient use of floor space.
  2. Debunked - both beds on floor
    This option allows for students who prefer not to have elevated beds.
  3. Lofted beds - Allows for maximum use of floor space with the desk with beds raised within 21 inches of the ceiling. The dresser and desk serve as support for the bed. One or both roommates may choose to have their beds lofted.  All lofting must be done by maintenance personnel.  Disadvantages include minimum distance between bed and ceiling.
You may also move the furniture around in your room, but not into the closet or in front of the windows in a manner that would block access through the window in the event of a fire. Closet doors may not be removed.

There is no charge for the first bed configuration requests.  A $50.00 charge per student will apply for subsequent requests.

Students who currently live on campus need not be present when staff alter the bed configuration, however all personal belongings must  be removed from the desk, dresser, beds, and the immediate area near the beds.  If rooms are not prepared accordingly, the request may not be completed.
