Move-In
Fall 2026 Move-In Details
Move-in for Macon, Cochran and Eastman halls is Aug 8 for new students and Aug 9 for new and returning students. Book a time slot in the housing portal at least 24 hours ahead and bring a photo ID. The school lists these dates as tentative.
Check your assignment in the housing portal for your specific date and time.
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.
