Fall Move-In

³ûÖ­ÊÓƵ Housing and Residence Life look forward to welcoming our new and returning residents for the Fall 2024 semester!

To help ensure a smooth process for move-in, each student is responsible for signing up for a time slot. Links to sign up will be emailed out to all students in mid-July. If you did not receive an email, please contact [email protected]. You must arrive and check into your room assignment on your assigned day and during your self-assigned time slot. You will need to remain flexible in your plans as we will be unable to accommodate requests for changes to move-in dates and times unless already approved.

Students can sign up for a 2-hour window between 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. to drop off their items from Thursday, Aug. 8th, and Friday, Aug 9th. Upon arrival, the student and support person will be let into their room by a member of our Residence Life staff. You will have access to the room, but will not be given a key. Once all your items are moved in, or the 2-hour window limit has expired, the student will check out with our Residence Life staff and the door will be locked. Choosing this option will allow for a quicker move-in process on the day of your official move-in.

Sign-up Forms for the first year student early drop off can be found .

Freshmen Move-In will begin at 9 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 11. Freshmen can select a time slot for move-in between 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Freshmen who are a part of the President’s Leadership Class or the Honors Program will move in at different designated times. If you are part of one of these specific groups, please look for detailed instructions from your Program Director.

During their selected time slot, the student will drive up to the front of Walker Hall or Banning Hall. All of their items will be taken from their vehicle to their room with the help of our Residence Life staff and other campus partners. While in the check-in line, you will be given keys to your room which you will follow the volunteers up to where you will unlock the door and let the volunteers unload the moving carts. Once items are removed from the vehicle the driver will be asked to move their vehicle to the Draper Hall parking lot. 

If you choose the early drop-off option, you will walk to the front of your building to check in, and then you will be directed to your room to get your paperwork and key.
