Move-In Details
Move-in timeslots will be pre-assigned for new students and self-selected for returning students, and are based on program participation, if applicable, and/or contract start dates. These timeslots and instructions will be released with student housing assignment notifications/confirmations. If you need to make travel arrangements prior to the timeslot being released, please refer to the available dates below and plan accordingly.
Move-in Pass
You will receive access to download and print a move-in pass for your timeslot through the Housing Portal. You must print your move-in pass and have it displayed in the front window of your vehicle when you arrive to campus. All vehicles assisting with move-in must display a move-in pass.
If you need to change your timeslot due to an extenuating circumstance such as flight arrangements, illness, transportation issues, internship commitments, etc., you will have the ability to do so in the Housing Portal. Please note: If you make a change to your move-in timeslot and have already printed your move-in pass, you will need to reprint your move-in pass to display the updated information.
Optional luggage tags are also provided with the move-in pass for student use to assist with labeling luggage and other move-in items.
