Moving In

Arrival

• Go directly to your assigned residence hall.
• The staff there will be ready to check you in beginning at 9:00 am.
• During August move-in only: University Police Officers and other College staff will be out and about directing people where to go. When you pull up at the curb of your residence hall, you’ll be met by a Red Carpet Crew Captain* (will be the person holding a clipboard) who will take your name and add you to the list of people awaiting check-in.
• During January move-in only, students can pull up to the curb and go directly to the front desk (or The Village Commons) of their assigned residence hall/residential community.

*Red Carpet Captain and Crew available during August Move-in only.

Check-in Process

• You will complete a series of forms and paperwork.
• You will get your keys for the first time and are introduced to your new home.
• At this point, you may have to wait in line. But, this part of the process is very important. So, please be patient.

Move-in

• During August move-in only: when it’s your turn to actually move in, the Red Carpet Crew Captain will arrange for the Red Carpet Crew to help you (and any helpers you brought along) move your stuff into the building, using wheeled carts that the College has purchased just for this purpose!
• The Red Carpet Crew will do all they can to help you. But, please understand that these students have volunteered to help you move in; they are not paid movers!
• During August AND January move-in: After you get all your belongings into your room, the real fun begins! If you haven’t already, you’ll meet your roommate, your neighbors and your Resident Assistant (RA), Resident Mentor (RM) or Graduate Resident Mentor (GRM). They will let you know when your floor will be meeting to go to the August Welcome Picnic.
  In the evening and throughout Opening Weekend, you’ll attend floor meetings and other Opening Activities. You’ll also have time to settle into your new home!
