Mini-Fridge Units
MicroChill units (combination of a mini-fridge and microwave) are available for rent in our traditional residence halls through our approved vendor CollegeProducts.com.
As a reminder, these combination units are set up specifically to work in a way such that the refrigerator portion is suspended while the microwave is in use. Order by August 1st to have your unit delivered before your arrival.
If you would like to place an order before receiving your 2025-2026 housing assignment, please write "UNKNOWN/000" when entering residence hall and room information on the order form. MicroChill will share a list of orders with Residential Life ahead of move in so students' room assignments can be confirmed and updated. If more than one roommate orders a MicroChill, the extra order(s) will be cancelled as only one MicroChill is permitted in each room. The student whose order is cancelled will be notified by MicroChill.
Students interested in bringing their own units may do so, however, only a mini-fridge between 3.3 and 4.1 cubic feet will be accepted, but not a separate microwave. Use of the combination units are approved via our Fire Safety guidelines and students are not allowed to bring in microwave units of their own.
Small woodframe houses (e.g., Fraternity/Sorority, Special Interest/Theme, and Language houses) as well as apartment-style locations (e.g., CoHos, Latin Way, Sophia Gordon, Hillside, 9-11 Sunset and 10 Winthrop) serve a smaller population with access to a full kitchen. If students are interested in renting or purchasing a smaller unit for their individual space, they may do so.
No more than one (1) microchill unit should be present per room. Connect with your roommate to confirm who is renting the item so that you have the most space available in your room!
