Move-In

Fall 2026 Move-In Details

Panther Days, PSU's welcome program for all newly admitted Fall 2026 students, runs the same weekend as move-in (August 29-30), immediately ahead of the fall semester's first day of classes on August 31. All full-time matriculated students are required to live on campus if space is available, with limited exceptions for students 21 or older or those with 64+ completed credits.

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

Move-in day logistics

Check-in location
Your assigned first-year residence hall - Blair, Belknap, Grafton, Pemigewasset, Geneva Smith, or select rooms in Mary Lyon.

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.
