Some questions about dorm...

Hello again! I'm a freshmen who frequently ask questions here and the answers really helps me a lot. At the moment, I haven't got any instruction about dorm yet so I'm kinda embarrassing :P

So here is some questions about dorm. I hope I get some good tips from people.

• Do I have to prepare my own blankets and pillow?
• I applied for Ellicott quad/ w. bathroom. Does the bathroom also has shower room?
• What's the nearest mall from UB and how long does it take?
