<p>if so, how much?</p>
<p>$0 .</p>
<p>It costs nothing, but make sure you put in your maintainence request early because they run out of the supplies quickly. I would say by the second week, you should stil be golden. I know someone who got her beds bunked even after fall break.</p>
<p>I’ve never lived in dorms so this question will sound completely ■■■■■■■■… what do you mean by “to loft beds”? Add extra mattresses?</p>
<p>lofting a bed is putting the bed on bunk bed risers so that you have room under for either a desk, minifridge or a futon even…</p>
<p>There are two forms of lofting:
- They actually take the bed frame and make it higher by placing little plastic risers under the legs
- They raise the mattress to the highest rungs on the bed frame</p>
<p>I am trying to figure out how to send you a picture of a typical freshman dorm room - single version ( also have double version but on a different computer!!)</p>
<p>The beds have a headboard/footboard that can be made into bunks,or have the mattress set up high so a desk fits under it - or at several other levels - so you can store stuff under it but not so high as a desk…very flexible</p>
<p>Lofting a bed sounds like a cool idea, since it would be more room to put stuff in my single room, like a TV.
Should I request for one? Or is it better to have a bed near the floor?</p>
<p>Depends on your preferences. It does provide you more floor space, but it requires you to climb the side of the bed to get in.</p>
<p>Which would you prefer?</p>
<p>keeping the bed the way it is will make it more practical for certain intimate sessions…</p>
<p>lol</p>
<p>hey memphismom could i get the picture too? im an incoming freshman with a single. thanks!</p>
<p>tell me how to get it to you - I can “send to” a email address - don’t know how to put it on here -</p>
<p>you can also get the layout of your room by searching the Cornell website - chekc on Housing - sorry - its been a while!!</p>
<p>is there a way to loft your bed a little bit so you have a little extra room maybe to fit more storage boxes and a minifridge, but still low enough so you dont need a ladder or anything?</p>
<p>you could always upload the picture to imageshack and post the link here?</p>
<p>its a jpeg - I tried copying and pasting but that did not work…</p>
<p>go to ■■■■■■■.com, upload the pic, and copy/paste the link</p>
<p>^yeah, thats what i meant</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>i had my bed “illegally” lofted - on dressers, night stands, etc. and it never really hindered any of my, er, relations… it actually gives you more space, especially if you put pillows/couch under there ;)</p>
<p>How often do they do inspections? Do you just unloft the bed before that?</p>
