The application for our MicroFridge and Electronic Safe has moved to the BU Housing portal.  Please follow this link – www.bu.edu/myhousing – to complete the application.  Once inside the housing portal, you will see the MicroFridge/Safe Rental application link across the top red ribbon.  If you have any questions please contact us at vending@bu.edu. we will contact you as soon as we can.
