  • Hi, friends!! Welcome to the Hive! Join me as I take you on a tour through the lobby, laundry room, elevator, hallway, a study room, a trash room, stairwell, and of course our whole dorm room space at Garden at the Hive (Room 415). Below are some helpful measurements and links regarding housing policies and information about residence halls at SCAD. Please let me know if you have any questions! -Also, shout-out to my mom for the labeling, bins, command hooks, and rollaway carts. :)

    SCAD dorm video with some measurements: • SCAD Residence Hall To...
    Measurements a friend and I made that may not be listed in that video:
    - Between poles of the night stand - 8.5 inches
    - Bottom of nightstand to floor - 14.5 inches
    - Underneath bed SPRINGS to floor - about 24 inches
    - Bottom of bed BORDER to floor - about 21 inches
    - Top of closet to ceiling - about 21.5 in.
    - Desk to floor - about 28 inches
    - Between poles of the desk - about 37 inches
    - The couch is roughly 6ft long and 3 ft deep/wide
    - Bedroom appears to be roughly 15ft by 11ft
    Information I did not mention in the video:
    - Room “A” is the room closest to the living room (the one you see when you first walk in the door) and Room “B” is the room closest to the kitchenette sink. In the video, my roommate and I’s room shown was room “A.”
    - The bedrooms do have locks on them if you wish to utilize. We get into the dorm living room space utilizing our ID cards and then if you wish to lock your actual bedroom, each person gets their own physical key 🔑 for their bedroom.

    Hi, great video. My daughter starts in the fall. Super helpful. I noticed under your desk it looks like you have an electricity strip. Does this come with the desk/room or did you purchase it. Did you love being in the end dorm with the extra windows or would you have preferred to be in a different dorm assuming others would be closer to the cafeteria and busses? tia

      Greetings! I am so glad this could be helpful for you all and I wish your daughter the best of luck this fall! While we didn’t get to choose where we were placed, if I did, I believe I would have without a doubt taken the dorm room with the extra window arrangement over being closer to the elevators and front of the building! Having the natural light just opened up the space and lifted the mood in our dorm. We also got a lot less foot traffic from being at the end.
      No worries at all! I’m glad the video and description were able to help you with the power extension cord strip question! I did purchase and bring it myself but made sure it was per standard of the housing policies.

    Hi!! This video is really useful, thank you! I was wondering what the rules are regarding hanging things up using pins/nails. I know some places permit holes up to the size of a dime, but due to your mentioning of command hooks it seems like maybe no holes are allowed?

      Hi there! I’m so glad it could help you! I used thumbtacks and command strips for all of my decor as nails are not allowed. Here is the quote about it from the housing license agreement: “Use of nails, screws, and adhesives that damage walls, furniture, or fixtures is prohibited. The use of thumbtacks is permitted.”

    Hello sweetie. I love your content- thanks for the dorm tour! Can freshman bring a car and park at the Hive? Does the ac work well? Where could I find a slip cover for the sofa? Thanks again

    • @niah_jo
      @niah_jo  Před 10 měsíci +3

      Thank you so much for watching! Yes! Freshman can bring a car and park at the Hive as long as they register it with SCAD to get a parking pass sticker. The AC does work well! Each dorm room has control over their own. However, the lowest temperature it goes to when it is warm out is 68 degrees. When it is cooler in the winter, you can turn it down more if you wish. I have a mini-fan in my room that I would use every now and then if I got warm at night. My suite-mate ordered us a couch slip-cover online- I believe from Amazon!

    Hi Niah-your video is very helpful-thank you! Did your dorm suite come with boring things like a toilet brush and plunger, fire extinguisher, and carbon monoxide detector? My daughter will room at the Hive in September and would like confirmation that the couch, coffee and end tables, and console are provided. Thanks!

    • @niah_jo
      @niah_jo  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Hi there! I’m so glad the video could be help to you all! We brought our own toilet plunger and brushes. There are provided fire extinguishers in the hallways. I cannot recall if there was a carbon monoxide detector or not in there but we definitely had smoke detectors. The moveable furniture that comes with the dorm are the two end tables, tv cabinet, couch, living room table, and two ottomans. In the bedrooms, the beds, desks, chair, closets, and night stands all come with the room. Everything else is up to you all. Feel free to look through the housing policies linked in the description of this video for more helpful information regarding items. Wishing your daughter the very best in the fall!

    Hi! thank you so so much for this video!! The one thing I'm struggling to find right now is a couch cover. Is there any chance you know the approximate couch measurements? (even just a guess as to how many feet long it is) I know that's a rather specific question, so I'd also just be happy to know where you got your it or what you looked up in order to find one!!
