University of California, Santa Cruz: What appliances and items are prohibited in the dorm?
DIRECT ANSWER
Yes. UCSC publishes a current prohibited-items list covering fire hazards, certain heating/cooking devices, weapons, alcohol/drugs and other unsafe items.
Students should use the 2026 move-in list as the controlling packing reference. UCSC prohibits items such as portable/window AC units, space heaters, exposed-heating devices, unsafe extension cords and weapons, and it applies residence policies to alcohol and drugs.
