Early Arrival Housing
Early arrival times are August 23 to August 27 between 10am-6pm. We must keep these numbers reduced, so please only do so, if needed. Limited services will be available on campus (desk hours, food availability, staff accessibility).
- If you are an individual student hoping to arrive early. Please sign up for an Early Arrival time here. Please note you will be billed $26 a night prior to 8/28.
- Meal plans do not start until the evening of 8/28.
- There is no move-in help for students arriving earlier than 8/28
- If you have already been approved to move to campus early due to a campus-affiliated group, you do not need to sign up again (Athletics, Band, Resident Assistants, International students, etc.).
- To access your room prior to 8/28, you must sign up for early arrival housing regardless of if you will be sleeping in your room or fully moving in.

Check in at your residence hall
Students should bring their campus Eagle ID card to the check in designated for their residence hall. In most cases, this is the front desk or near the front entrance of the hall.
If a student does not have their ID, we encourage you to stop by the Eagle ID Office located in the Student Union prior to moving in. For more information about the Eagle IDs, please visit their website.
Move in!
Unload your vehicle and get settled in your new home! Your Resident Assistant will be close by to welcome you and share opportunities to get connected.
Reminder: When your move in is complete, move your vehicle out of the unloading lots to allow for other students to arrive and use the spaces.
