Living in the Dorms

Hi,
I’m about to move in to the Barrett dorms on the Tempe campus in the Fall, and I was wondering if they check the rooms often or if they’re strict about what’s in your room. I’m only asking because I have a mini fridge and its dimensions are bigger than the dimensions posted on the housing website. Would I be able to get away with having a larger mini fridge, or is it something ASU is strict about?

Hi @brinda1108 - I am a two time Barrett parent. I think you’ll be ok, but I’m far from an expert in that area. The bigger thing they look for is alcohol and drugs. They usually only check rooms during breaks and I believe the CA will give you warning before they will do a check. A slightly larger fridge is the least of their worries. If it causes electrical circuit issues, then they might ask you to remove it.
