Tips
- Check the dates your hall actually reopens; arriving a day early can leave you locked out.
- Pack a first-night bag with bedding, toiletries and chargers on top of the load.
- Ask whether the bookstore and key offices keep short hours in the first week.
Questions
When is spring move-in?
It varies by school, usually in early to mid January. See the spring move-in dates page for the dates we have checked, then confirm with your housing office.
Every school is different. Open your school's guide from move-in dates or all universities, and confirm details with your housing office. How we verify.
