Our residence halls and apartments contain extralong twin beds that require specific linens to fit the mattresses. In conjunction with On Campus Marketing, the Residential Housing Association (page 25) has arranged to provide you with high quality extra-long linens, with on-campus delivery available. This summer, you will receive a letter and order form that describes available products and special packages. Please order by the deadline to ensure you have your linens sent to USC for pick-up on Move-In Day. Proceeds fund various student leadership development programs and initiatives at USC. Please visit resed.usc.edu for more details.

Please leave the following at home:

Pets

Students are not permitted to have dogs, cats or other pets in USC Housing. The only exception is fish in a 10-gallon (or smaller) tank. Residents found with a pet will be charged a substantial clean-up and re-carpeting fee and documented for violating university policy.

Air Conditioners

If your housing does not have air conditioning, you are not permitted to install a unit yourself. This is considered a “physical alteration” of the room or apartment, which for safety and security reasons is prohibited by your contract. If you need an air-conditioned room, please select one of our many facilities with air conditioning when you complete your housing application.

Dish/Satellite TV Antennas Installation of these devices is considered a “physical alteration” of the building and/or the room or apartment, which is not allowed for safety and security reasons. Remember: All housing facilities come with cable TV service.
