Before you buy anything: what is actually true at Southern University and A&M College

A generic college checklist will cost you money here. These are Southern University and A&M College’s own published room measurements and rules — check them before you order.

Room size and rugs

Rooms run from 118 sq ft (Alice Almira Boley Hall) up to 331 sq ft (Felton Grandison Clark Hall). At the small end a 5×7 rug is the largest that leaves walking room — measure before ordering anything bigger.
