Helpful Hints For All Students
- Bring a sweater
just in case your classroom is chilly.
- Leave your iron
at home. MAQ supplies them, and we need to be careful not to overload
the circuits.
- Internet access
is not provided.
For Resident Students
- Bring a quilt if
you’re staying in the dorms. They get a bit chilly.
- Bring your own
hand soap for the bathroom.
