Move-In

Fall 2026 Move-In Details

New student move-in depends on your building: Daley on Wednesday, Aug. 19, Dedmond and Lord Baltimore on Thursday, Aug. 20, and Sonesta on Friday, Aug. 21. Each building has time slots by floor, starting at 9 AM. Residents must be registered for at least 12 credits to pick up keys, and students with unpaid balances need proof of a payment plan. Meningitis (or a waiver) and Hepatitis B vaccination proof is due at least a week before move-in.

Check your assignment in the housing portal for your specific date and time.

Move-in day logistics

Check-in location
For Dedmond and Daley, park in Lot F (Talon Lot) and report to the Talon Center. For Lord Baltimore and Sonesta, begin at the hotel front entrance and follow staff directions.
Parking
Campus move-in parking is in Lots E and F.

Move-in day tips

  • Arrive during your assigned move-in window - arriving early may mean waiting until your time slot.
  • Bring a rolling cart or hand truck - campus carts can run out quickly during busy move-in periods.
  • Have a parking backup plan - spaces near residence halls can fill up quickly, so know where you can unload if your preferred area is full.
  • Watch the loading-zone time limit - many campuses require you to move your vehicle to longer-term parking after unloading.
