To help with the flow of the move-in process, we designate your move in time according to the building that you will be moving into, in addition to the floor number.

To determine your building number, you will look at the first number of your room assignment. 

To determine your floor number for buildings 1-9, you will look at the second digit of your room assignment. 
To determine your floor number for building 10, you will look to the third digit of your room assignment.

At the main Move-In Appointments, Housing staff will provide curbside check-in along with personalized support to help you settle into your new space. If you arrive during a Late Appointment, you’ll be directed to wait at the Lassen Office until a staff member can provide you with your check-in package and additional self-guided resources to assist with your move-in. It is imperative that you set up appointments to ensure we are aware of your arrival.

Late Move-In Days

Appointment availability has been carefully designed to optimize your move-in experience. We ask that you look at available options to plan accordingly. Should you have unresolved conflicts and cannot make the “main” Move-In appointments, late appointments will open up for selection on August 6th. Late appointments are recommended only if you cannot make the main move-in dates and times.

Please note, the license agreement period begins on August 13, 2026. If you arrive at a later date, you must communicate this to the Housing Office. Later arrivals, do not change the terms of your occupancy period.

Starting Off Right With Those You Live With

An important part of successful community living is building effective communication and relationships with your roommates and suite/apartment mates. University Housing & Residence Life recommend all residents take the following steps establish positive communication with those that you will be living with:

1. Contact those you are living with before you arrive and get to know each other. Check out the image below for suggested items to talk about!
2. Schedule your Suite/Apartment Agreement with your Resident Assistant early on! The Agreement is your opportunity to establish shared expectations around guests, cleaning, noise level, etc.
3. Walk with those you live with about how you best receive feedback if there is a concern they want to talk about with you.
4. Communicate any concerns calmly and early so that the concerns can be addressed before it becomes a larger issue.
5. Ask your RA for support! An RA can help learn how to effectively share concerns you might have with those you live with.

So What Should I Talk to My Roommate?

• Reach out to your roommate/suite mates via the and introduce yourself!
• Share your interests, hobbies, favorite shows, major, etc. and start getting to know each other
• Exchange numbers, set up a GroupMe, or other group messaging system.
• Discuss items you each will bring to limit duplicates (TV, pans, dishes, utensils, etc.)
• Share the day/time you are moving in

Residents can begin to use their meal plans starting the first day of their License Agreement (Thursday, August 13) and their guests can join them for a complimentary meal at lunch on their Move-In Appointment Day.

Q: Do I have a choice of my bunk space?

A: Your bunk space is determined by the official letter assigned with your room assignment. Please review the “Understand Your Assignment” section to preview what is your space designation. If you believe you need accommodations for the bed you selected, please consult with Student Housing.

Q: I want to swap space after I move in, what do I do?

A: The room change process will reopen at the end of August. More details for room changes will be available closer to the date of the request. Residents are not permitted to coordinate their own room swap prior to the approval process due to safety and license agreement policies.
