First-Year Students
First-year residence halls typically feature a traditional floor plan with mostly Double rooms and hall bathrooms; Triple rooms are also available. All first-year residence halls are designated as co-ed by bathroom, with students housed by gender within each hall. Please refer to the Housing Application Timeline for important deadlines. First-year students may not request a specific residence hall.

Housing for transfer students will be assigned based on spaces available and is not guaranteed. Transfer students need to sign in to StarRez and complete their lifestyle questions to support roommate matching. Please refer to the Housing Application Timeline for important deadlines.

Move-In and Check-in Information - Fall 2026
Check-in and move-in for all entering first-year, transfer, and international/exchange students participating in a transition program will be on Monday, August 17. All entering first-year and transfer students who are not participating in a transition program will check in and move in on the Wednesday before classes begin, August 19. Students participating in a transitional program should consult their program advisor or director for additional information. All entering students must sign up for a move-in time slot. This information will be sent later in the summer once assignments are completed. Early arrival/move-in is not permitted for first-year, transfer, or incoming international/exchange students; please plan travel accordingly.
All students must present original physical copies of valid identification (e.g., driver's license, passport) at check-in. Students are not permitted to check in or move in prior to their registered time slot. Students may check in only during their registered time slot to ensure we can keep students and families appropriately spaced throughout the day and maintain a smoother move-in process for all.
Check-in will be held between 9 AM and 4 PM on both days on the first floor of Tyler Haynes Commons (Building 270 on the campus map). All students must check in to gain access to their residence hall. At check-in, students will receive an activated SpiderCard, which will grant them access to their room via our wireless lock system. Students and families can also visit and obtain valuable information from campus resources and community partners at the Resource Fair in the Tyler Haynes Commons.
Representatives from on-campus departments will be available to answer questions for students and families. Please note that parking is very limited near Tyler Haynes Commons, so we strongly recommend following the designated parking locations and walking to check in.
For unloading and parking: It is recommended that residents of Dennis, Marsh, Moore, and Robins Halls use parking lot C61. There is limited parking and an unloading area in lot R47 for residents of Dennis, Robins, and Wood Halls. Residents of Lora Robins Court should use parking lot W93 and W73 for unloading, with additional parking available in W87 and W88.
