The University of Vermont's campus overlooks Lake Champlain from Burlington, anchored by Old Mill, its oldest surviving building whose cornerstone was laid in part by the Marquis de Lafayette, with first-year students housed across campus including in Converse Hall, one of UVM's oldest buildings still used continuously as a dormitory.

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.
