Move-in Schedule

Move-in Fall 2025 Schedule
 

Students must select a move-in timeslot for their arrival through the Housing and Dining Portal, and must arrive at their selected timeslot in order to move in. Students will not be permitted to enter the queue to obtain their ID, keys, etc. until the timeslot that they have pre-selected. 

Arrival Timeslots

To ensure a safe and efficient move-in experience, all students are required to schedule a move-in/arrival timeslot via our housing and dining portal by August 1, 2025. Students may select a timeslot according to what is available based on your building assignment and status as a first-year student, transfer student, or upper-level student.  

Please note that the move-in/arrival timeslot that you select is when you need to arrive at your designated check-in location. Your 30 minutes is just for your arrival time, not unloading. You'll have plenty of time to unload after the check-in time.
