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 timeslot prior to your arrival to campus. 

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.

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 26 in the housing portal.

Meal Plan Changes

If you would like to make changes to your meal plan, visit the  Purdue housing portal beginning July 26. The deadline to make meal plan changes is Friday, August 30, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. ET. After August 30, students may not make changes to their meal plan (raise or lower) during the semester.
