What to Expect
When you arrive for your Move-In Day, you can expect the following:
1. Key Pick Up - All residents will be required to pick up their key at their designated area of move-in. Traffic will be one-way so students should follow the recommended route found in the move-in maps.
2. Guest Limit - To assist in limiting the number of people on campus, we are limiting the number of guests to assist with your move-in to 2 people. If possible, we encourage guests to say goodbye to students at their vehicle and avoid entering our buildings. Guests will not be permitted after your move-in.
3. Parking - If you need to park, parking will be available in P4/P8/P5 as indicated on the Move-In Maps. Please note that parking will be free only on September 2nd, 2023.
Frequently Asked Questions
Please direct your taxi to enter the campus through the south entrance (see move-in map). The taxi will need to follow the map to the designated taxi/Uber drop-off. Once you reach the drop off area, please wait until a Student Housing & Residence Life representative approaches your car to give you further instructions. View the move-in map for Taxi/Ubers here.
If you are unsure what to pack, we have a helpful Preparation Checklist that you can check out to help guide you!
Unfortunately we will not be accomodating early move-ins at this time. We have arranged preferred rates with hotels for family accommodations should you be in the area before your designated move-in date and time.
Releasing keys to anyone other than the resident is prohibited. When picking up keys, residents must have a piece of government-issued I.D.
