Lofts

Lofts may not be constructed or erected in any residence hall room.
However, some rooms do contain beds that can be arranged in multiple configurations. A description of the different configurations is listed below. In general, Traditional and Suite style beds will allow multiple configurations while Apartment style does not.

NOTE:

  • All bed reconfigurations must be performed by Housing Facility Staff. To request a reconfiguration, complete a Maintenance Request online or contact the Housing Facilities Work Center at 404-894-0520.
  • Bed Safety Rails
    When beds are requested to be raised to the high position in authorized halls students who are prone to rolling out of a twin bed size mattress should consider bringing a safety rail to attach to the frame to prevent serious injuries from falling from a higher height. If a bed is raised too high for your desires submit a housing work request to get it lowered to one of the other approved configurations.

Please see the individual building pages for specific information:
