Fall 2026 Move-In Dates
Choose your move-in slot in advance through the Move-In website (movein.uark.edu), updated each June with current-year details. Check-in for on-campus housing and university-owned apartments happens at Baum-Walker Stadium's third base concourse, where you'll also receive two parking passes. Freshmen are required to live on campus, with some exceptions.
August 10 - August 14, 2026
Check your assignment in the housing portal for your specific date and time.
Move-in day tips
- Arrive during your assigned window - early arrivals often just wait longer.
- Bring a rolling cart or hand truck; loading-zone carts run out fast.
- Parking near freshman halls fills up quickly - have a backup plan or drop-off spot.
- Loading zones usually enforce a strict time limit (often 30 minutes) before you're expected to move your car to long-term parking.
- Activate your student ID online before you arrive - many schools require it for building and elevator access from day one.
- If you want your bed lofted or the frame height adjusted, check whether your school needs that request submitted online in advance - most won't do it on the spot.
- Check your school's specific package-acceptance window before shipping anything ahead - most won't hold early deliveries outside a set date range.
- Unpack essentials first: bedding, toiletries, and chargers, before anything else.
