XL Twin Mattresses, Bedding, Dorm Rooms.?
I'm going to college this fall and I've sent numerous emails to their housing department and they still have not answered. I want to know the standard size for dorm room mattresses, I understand that they are extra long twin, I just want the dimensions. I was also wondering where I could find some comforters and what not. I already know of JCPenney, Target, Linens 'n Things, The Company Store, Bed, Bath and Beyond, Walmart, and a few others. And also, can I fit a normal twin size comforter on the XL twin mattress? I heard I could do that, I just need the XL sheets. Thanks.

You're definitely gonna want the XL sheets. I got a whole set w/ a comforter. Depending on the comforter, a regular size one may fit the XL beds, but I'm not sure. I bet if you look in Linens 'n ' Things or something, the dimensions might be on the bedding bag or someone in the store might have a good idea of the usual difference. I hope the college gets back to you...you could try giving housing a phone call during business hours...that might get your answer sooner.
