Pets are not allowed. The only pets allowed are fish and they must be in a tank no bigger than five gallons. If you are interested in applying for an accommodation for an Emotional Support Animal or a Service Animal, please contact Services for Students with Disabilities.  Please note, any approved accommodations will still require Housing review before the animal can be in campus housing.

Having roommates is an exciting part of your college experience. We encourage you to reach out to them, introduce yourself and get to know each other. You can find their email in the housing portal when you view your housing assignment.
