When I sleep at my home in Whiterun, or in a purchased bed at an inn, I get the Well Rested buff.(10% to skill increases)

When I sleep in a bed out in the wilderness I only get a Rested Buff.(5% to skill increases)

When I sleep in either of my beds at the College of Winterhold, the Apprentice Bed OR the Arch-Mage Bed, I only get the Rested Buff.

I would assume that since I own the beds at the college and not the beds in the wilderness, that the buffs from them would be different. What determines which buff I get?

But the beds in the college should be considered “own”, no? – svick Feb 19 '12 at 15:30
@svick : I would think so, but since I never 'bought' the college, I can see why it would fall under the 'permission' category. – Ender Feb 19 '12 at 15:47
@svick You only get to sleep there because you passed the test to become a student. The bed doesn't really belong to you. – Renan Feb 19 '12 at 15:48

@Renan And the Archmage's bed? – Iszi Feb 19 '12 at 16:30

@Izsi The College of Winterhold can be compared to any other college. The facilities in the principal's room doesn't belong to him but are there at his disposal. Should another person take the title, you will no longer be allowed in the room. – Renan Feb 19 '12 at 17:54

What about the beds I own at the college? That was kinda the point of the question. – Ender Feb 19 '12 at 14:04
