Electricity
Electricity costs are included in monthly/quarterly housing payments for Arroyo Vista, Campus Village, Mesa Court, Middle Earth, and Verano Place (units 100 – 6528).

ACC Communities
ACC communities provide electricity up to a cap, and residents are billed for use over and above that amount.
Telephone
Most students rely on cell/mobile phones for telephone communication, however, some on-campus communities still support “land lines” if you choose to set up service.
Setting up ‘land line’ service
Telephone wiring and outlets can be found in bedrooms and some apartment living room areas in some housing communities. Students may request telephone service activation from AT&T Residential.

How Do I Tell AT&T Which Port to Activate?
