  Before you Arrive

  • Our Suggestions on What to Bring
  • Campus Map 

   

  Roommates and Suitemates

  Consider contacting your suitemates before you arrive to build relationships and get to know them. There are many things to coordinate, and sharing space can be fun as well as challenging. Try some of these icebreakers below to get the conversation going.

  For You

  • Hometown
  • Hobbies
  • Movie and TV favorites

  For the Group

  • Similarities
  • Differences
  • Habits

  

  Having a basic understanding of each others' values and expectations helps to build a foundation for a great year. The Community Assistants (CAs) may also help you with the transition to college life. The CAs live in the residence hall and are trained to assist with concerns or conflicts. If you find yourself struggling to make things work with your roommate, please reach out to your CA. Adjustments can be made after you move in, but the most important step is to talk to your CA.

   

  Bed Configuration

  Unless requested, beds are arranged in the standard configuration when you arrive. (The bed on the left side of the photo). If you would like to request a bunked or lofted configuration, please email housing@cocc.edu and we will set-up your requested configuration prior to your arrival. Please note quantities are limited.

  *Note there is a one time fee of $50 assessed for lofted (billed to one student) or bunked (bill split between two students) bed configurations to cover the additional hardware and assembly.

   

  Your Mailing Address & Shipping

  Before you move, consider putting in a change of address with the United States Postal Service if you want to receive mail at the residence hall. Refer to the information below to confirm your address. Personal belongings may be shipped to the residence hall in advance of move-in.

  All packages must be clearly addressed with the students name, suite number and the address of the residence hall. Let the staff know at check-in if you have shipped items you need to claim and they will direct you further.

  [YOUR NAME]

  Suite # [ ____]
  2200 NW Mt. Washington Drive
  Bend, OR 97703

   

  Getting Here

  We recommend referring to these driving directions to reduce the number of turns and inclines on your route. It's also a good idea to snap a pic of your license plate if you are parking a car at Wickiup Hall; we need the number to provide you a parking pass.

  When you arrive at the residence hall:

  1. Park
  2. Go to the main Wickiup Hall entrance
  3. Check-in at the front desk for:
     
     • Unloading instructions
     • Room keys
     • Other paperwork & information

   

  Moving In

  THE FIRST THING, before you begin unloading your belongings:

  You must CHECK-IN with the Housing Office. Even if you know your room assignment and/or your roommate is already checked-in, you must first visit THE HOUSING Office in order to receive your keys AND FOB.

  NOTE DAMAGES when you check-in (or in the first few days):

  • Check your keys (suite, bedroom and mail) and FOB— be sure they work
  • Inspect your living areas (room, bathroom, kitchen, etc.) to prevent being billed for damage ALREADY there, please note any damages you find when you move-in, on your Check-In Form.

  ATTEND Your First Floor Meeting and Meet your CA

  • Before the first week of classes you should have met your CA at your MANDATORY FLOOR MEETING
