Micro-Fridge Rental Information and Opt-Out
Regis University on-campus students living in O’Connell, DeSmet, and West Halls will have a Micro-Fridge provided in their room. This unit meets Regis University Housing standards and is designed specifically for college living. The rental cost is $225 per year, $112.50 total per term split between all roommates.

  • Opt-Out Process:

    If you and your roommates do not wish to rent the Micro-Fridge, you must follow the opt-out
    process outlined below:

    All Roommates Must Submit a Request: Every roommate must submit an individual opt-out request. If only one or some roommates submit the request, it will be denied, and the rental fee will still apply.

    No Personal Fridges Allowed: If you opt out of the rental, you will not be allowed to bring your own refrigerator or microwave into your room.

    The opt-out applies only to the provided Micro-Fridge unit, and no personal appliances are permitted in the halls.

    Opt-Out Deadline: The opt-out request must be submitted by the end of the first week of move-in. After this deadline, no further requests will be accepted, and the rental agreement will apply for the entire academic year.

    Yearly Commitment: Once the opt-out deadline has passed, the Micro-Fridge rental will be in effect for the full academic year. There will be no option to cancel the rental mid-year.



    About the Micro-Fridge:
    The Micro-Fridge is a combination appliance with a refrigerator, freezer, and microwave, designed to meet the needs of college students.

    Microwave: 700 watts with defrost and cook settings.

    Refrigerator: 2.13 cubic feet, adjustable thermostat.

    Freezer: True zero-degree freezer (0.75 cubic feet), capable of storing frozen food for long periods. Unlike standard mini-fridges, this freezer can hold a half-gallon of ice cream, frozen entrees, and more.

    The unit includes Safe Plug® Technology to reduce power consumption, using only 11 amps and requiring just one dedicated circuit. The dimensions of the unit are 18 5/8” X 19 1/2” X 43 1/2”.


    Rental Terms:

    Rentals are for the entire academic year.

    The Micro-Fridge will be installed before your move-in and removed after check-out.

    Only one rental per room is permitted to ensure energy efficiency. The cost will be split equally between roommates unless you are in a single room.

    Important Reminders:

    No outside microwaves or refrigerators are allowed in residence halls. The provided Micro-Fridge is the only approved appliance for these rooms.

    Review the Regis University Front Porch for the opt-out deadline and further details.

    If you have any questions or need assistance with the opt-out process, please contact the University Housing Office.
