Room dimensions are only half the story — here is what Mississippi College actually charges to live on campus, what shows up in the room before you unpack, and the appliance rules that decide what you can bring.
Heads up — this school breaks the usual rules
- Personal microwaves are banned outright. The only in-room microwave allowed is a combination MicroFridge unit rented or bought through the school’s supplier.
- One fridge per room, and it must be under 3 feet tall.
- Also banned even with auto shut-off: hot plates, air fryers, electric skillets, Instant Pots, toasters, toaster ovens, rice cookers and George Foreman-style grills.
Buying the standard college checklist here will waste money — check your building first.
