Arriving to Campus and Checking In

We know this is an exciting time for you and your family, and our staff will do everything we can to help you get moved into your new home efficiently.

For summer move-in: Upon arriving to campus, proceed directly to your residence hall front desk to check in and retrieve your keys. You will be asked to show your Panther ID card. You must complete the online Resident Information Record and Fire Safety Module before you arrive (see Prior to Arrival section).

For fall move-in: Upon arriving to campus, proceed to the Student Recreation Center to check in and retrieve your keys. You will be asked to show your Panther ID card. You must complete the online Resident Information Record and Fire Safety Module before you arrive (see Prior to Arrival section).

Arriving at your Hall

Upon arriving to your respective residence hall, you will notice there will be many students in unloading zones preparing to move in. Please refer to your individual move-in email referencing your residence hall’s proper unloading location.

We know that this is an exciting time for you and your family. As a staff, we will do everything we can to help you move into your new home efficiently. The unloading process varies by location – this information will be provided upon arrival. University Housing will have a limited number of large bins available to assist with your move. We STRONGLY encourage you to bring your own equipment needed to facilitate your move-in process.

We request bringing a maximum of only two (2) family and friends to participate in your move in process. Consider bringing family and friends another day after you move in. All guests of the resident will need to be checked at their community front desk. A government-issued photo ID is required by both the resident and their guests.

Immediately after arriving and unloading, all family/guest cars as well as resident cars who have not paid for semester parking are required to move their vehicle to a local city parking lot.

What Should You Bring?

Packing for your campus apartment or room can be a lot of fun, but be mindful not to pack too much. There is limited space in the residence halls and there is no extra storage available. To conserve space, it is a good idea to consider sharing larger items with your roommates. You should contact them before coming to campus, so that you can agree upon the items that each of you will be responsible for bringing. We encourage you to visit the Housing website for a detailed list of items to bring, items to share and prohibited items.

Please continue to check your student email for future communications including arrival time confirmation and building specific move-in information. If you have any questions please email [email protected].
