Loft details

  • Loft beds are not suitable for everyone. Please review the video below before you decide to order a loft.
  • Not all spaces in a hall are loftable due to the configuration of the room and safety requirements.
  • Halls that can accommodate lofted beds are: Baker, Aden, Brackett, Farrand, Cheyenne Arapaho, Kittredge Central, Buckingham, Smith, Stearns West, Stearns East, Cockerell, Crosman, Sewall, and Williams Village North
  • We cannot accommodate lofted beds in Bear Creek, Cockerell, Crosman, Reed, Libby, Hallett, Darley North, Darley South, Weber, Williams Village East, Willard, Kittredge West, Andrews or Arnett Halls
  • Our standard beds provide two feet, 11 inches underneath the bed, which accommodates the dressers provided (see below).
  • Lofted beds provide four feet, 11 inches of space underneath the bed but only 26.5 inches between the top of the mattress and ceiling (you cannot sit upright on the top of the bed if it is lofted).
  • There is a $120 non-refundable fee added to your Bursar's account if you request a loft and are assigned to a loftable space. This fee is subject to all payment deadlines.
  • If you plan to request a room change, you should not submit a loft request until the September process to avoid the nonrefundable $120 charge.

Requesting a loft - Fall process only

  • Visit the myCUliving housing portal to request a loft during the loft application dates in July and September.
  • Click on Request a Bed Loft in the gold menu bar. If you don't see this option, you may be in a hall or room that is not eligible for lofting.
  • Read and sign the agreement.
  • A $120 non-refundable fee will be added to your Bursar account if you are assigned to a space that is loftable. Please remember that this fee will apply even if you determine you no longer want to rent the loft, or if you have an assignment change to a space that is not loftable.
    • If you request your loft July 21-28, it will be assembled and available in your room when you arrive.
    • You will be emailed a confirmation, after July 28, if we can accommodate your request. The fee will be applied to your Student tuition and fees account.
    • If we are unable to accommodate your request, you will be notified via email after July 28 and no charges will be assessed.
  • If you request a loft Sept. 1-11, Housing Facilities Services will contact you to schedule a set-up appointment.
