As you plan your arrival to Georgia Tech we ask that you consider the following recommendations. Please limit the items you bring to essential items only. This will ensure a safe and smooth move-in process for the entire community, and simplify the move-out process later in the semester. 

A list of recommended items is provided below. Additionally, please be mindful of the prohibited items list. By doing so, you help us encourage the safety of our volunteers and your fellow residents. 

Here you will find the list of items you should consider bringing with you to move-in, with specific needs for each type of room below.

The Tenth and Home complex on North Campus offers one and two bedroom Family-monthly unfurnished apartments which have no furniture in them. The full size kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher, garbage disposal, microwave, stove, oven, refrigerator, cabinets, pantry, and washer and dryer. You will need to plan to provide furnishings according to your personal needs.

Please coordinate with your roommate on these items and ensure all items are certified "energy star" compliant:

The items below are not permitted in the residence halls or apartments. While we attempt to list as many non-permitted items that we know of, the list is not comprehensive; please contact the Central Housing Office to ask about any items not listed that may be questionable.

Check out what will be in your room when you arrive.  Read all about the furnishings for each room style, see diagrams and measurements for bedroom furniture, and learn how your bed can be set up.

Personal appliances that are used for cooking need to be used in a proper and safe manner. No open flame device is allowed in any residence hall. Appliances that generate high temperatures (generally over 140 degrees such as a George Foreman grill or portable deep fat fryers) can only be used at approved locations. The top of any of the apartment or common area stoves provided with exhaust hoods are considered the only approved locations for use within residence halls. Slow cookers are allowed.

Individual health and air quality requirements vary greatly between students' desires and needs. Students should plan for small portable units (de-humidifier, air cleaner, humidifier, fan, ionizer. etc.) that meet their personal comfort desires as these items are not supplied in the rooms.
