New Student Move-In

Please visit the Move-In page for details about your scheduled move-in date.

Please note that arrival earlier than your assigned date is not permitted. If you will need to arrive to the area earlier, you should plan to stay in off-campus lodging. Local accommodation links can be found here. 

Although classes end on December 12, new students should plan to be on campus through most, if not all of finals week, which goes through December 20. This will allow students to prepare for and take final examinations and complete any other final work. Students should not leave campus for the semester until all work for their courses has been completed. 

Information about new student housing will be available in June. 

As long as we have completed health forms on file, you will receive your housing assignments and roommate information by email in August. 

The Office of Residential Life has put together a list of FAQS for students that should provide the information you need.
