B.E.S.T. Dorm Question?

<p>Just a quick question regarding BEST dorm: what exactly are you provided with as a first-year student (obviously the basics such as a desk, a bed, and a dresser) but are you provided with things such as a closet, a mirror, toilet paper, desk chair, etc.? Please be as specific as you can. Thanks for all of your input.</p>

<p>i think the door for the room in the suite has a mirror on it, for the regular suites it does so i would think it would have it. You need toilet paper, bring cleaning supplies for the bathroom and you are given a desk and room has a closet for each of you. If you bring a tv, bring a coxial cable and also a ethernet cable. You can find these cheap online like amazon or pay at rutgers for a ridiculously inflated price.</p>

<p>Thank you for the input; additional information by other students would be appreciated!</p>

<p>I lived in BEST last year and I’m living there again. The amenities here are great, especially compared to the other first-year dorms. The room itself is very spacious and you have a ton of storage space. You don’t get a closet but you do have a roomy armoire and a decent sized dresser to store your clothes. The beds are high, so you have a lot of space under you bed to store things as well. Unless you have a ton of stuff, storage shouldn’t be an issue. You do get a desk chair and desk. If you have anything you want to secure, bring a padlock/combination lock. The dresser and the desk each have a drawer where you can attach a lock. In addition, every dorm room at Rutgers has a microwave and mini fridge, so make sure none of your suitemates goes out and buys one!</p>

<p>There’s a mirror in the actual bathroom itself. The bathroom has two sinks, and four cubbies (one for each suitemate) to keep any toiletries in. The toilet is in a separate room within the bathroom. Unfortunately, they don’t provide you with toilet paper so make sure that one of your suitemates brings a decent supply. You will be very surprised at how fast it runs out. I’d also recommend a bath mat, because water tends to spill over easily from the shower. Except for a shower curtain, they don’t provide you with any bathroom supplies, so make sure that you pack things like hand soap and hand towels.</p>

<p>Hope this helps. I actually have a few pictures of my room from last year, so if you wanted a preview just PM me! :D</p>
