<p>Do students have access to a microwave on campus in a dorm hall or are students encouraged to bring their own. Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>There is access to one, but I would strongly suggest bringing your own, given how cheap they are now. Do not, under any circumstances, rent your microwave or fridge, though, it's a total rip-off.</p>
<p>how much is it to rent a fridge and/or microwave?</p>

<p>Go to "Online store" at the top, then "Appliances". Microwave rental is $40 for a semester and $50 for a year. So yeah, add that up for four years and that's pretty expensive.</p>
<p>They have kitchens in the lounges, but they aren't in pristine conditions...</p>
<p>One year is already more expensive than some microwaves in stores these days! And that's getting it new!</p>
