Moving-in
We look forward to you moving in with us this fall. For information specific to the move-in process, please visit our Move-in webpage. We encourage you to log in to the housing portal to verify your room assignment and move-in time slot prior to your arrival to campus. If you need to make changes to your move-in time slot, you may do so in the housing portal beginning July 16.
What to bring
Visit our Residence Hall Packing Guide webpage to know what is provided in your room and what you should bring. We’ve compiled a list of recommended items from our residents and tour guides to help make moving into University Residences easier. All items listed are through Amazon.
We also offer a full range of Residence Hall gear to meet your needs!
Pre-Arrival Room Change Requests
If you don’t feel your room assignment is the best fit for you, you will be able to request a room change prior to move-in beginning July 17 in the housing portal.
