Welcome! We're so glad you are living on campus! We've developed the plan for move-in to provide you a safe transition.Each resident has been assigned a move-in date and time. Check your email for your assignment and additional details.
Move In Day Process
The staff and campus community will be working together on move-in day to provide all the information that you will need.
Look for signs that will direct you. As a part of your check-in, you will receive a schedule of the events for the first few days. Students will have several of activities, known as Blues Week, to keep them occupied as they adjust to new college life.

Move-In Day
Dollies and carts will be available for limited use on your move-in day, but we will not be able to offer volunteer and/or staff to assist with your unloading. Students will be allowed 2 guests (no children) to assist with their unloading and unpacking, during their assigned date and time. Outside guest assistance will not be permitted after your move-in window has closed.
To complete check-in, you will:
- Arrive on campus during your assigned time and follow the traffic and parking directions to your building
- Check-in with the Housing staff in your assigned lobby
- Unload in the designated unloading zone (you will have limited time in the unloading zone)
