Housing questions...

So, I was reading and it looks like laundry is free (no coins or card)--well, not free, but that it's just included in the bill...is this true? hope so! then i don't have to save up my quarters anymore, haha

also, does anyone know what the microwave policy is? are they allowed? the room i stayed in had one, but i wanted to make sure it was okay, and if its even a good idea? i have access to a refridgerator and a microwave that i can take to campus and i was just wondering if i should bring them? i know you are supposed to wait and talk with your roommate, but my dad mentioned that they could always take our fridge back in the car if i don't need it...don't know about the microwave...but anyways, if i can get them now for free then i'm not gunna wait just to have to pay

Okay, this is a rambling post, but anyone have any input on how helpful a microwave is? also, i'm living in twain, are their kitchen/kitchenette type things in the dorm? cuz if there are then that'll change things...

anyway, sorry for continuing to ramble, haha, i'm just wondering if any current students had insight/input.

Thanks!

microwaves are very nice if you like having hot late night cup-o-noodles or Easy Mac or whatever... fridges are also nice if you're going to buy your own drinks/cold food.

Yes, washers and dryers are free. Fridges and microwaves are also allowed. In fact, I have a fridge, a compact freezer, and a microwave in my room.
