Arrival to campus on or after August 21

Centralized Check-in is now closed. Students who arrive on August 21 or later should check in directly at the center desk of their fall assignment.

Desks are open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., but we encourage you to arrive during normal business hours if possible.

Please bring your CrimsonCard to the desk to complete your check-in. If you haven’t picked up your CrimsonCard, you will receive a temporary card to access your room and meals until you can get your card at the Wells Library.

What to consider when moving on campus

Here's what to consider when choosing which residence hall you want to live in:

  1. Neighborhoods – Think about how you want to navigate getting to and from your residence hall to class and activities. There are three neighborhood options: northwest, central, and southeast.
  2. Room types – You can request to be assigned to a single room to live alone or a double room to be assigned a roommate. There are other options available such as a triple or apartment, too.
  3. Roommates – If you don't have a selected roommate, you can be assigned a roommate. If you have a roommate preference, your housing preferences and your priority group should be the same as your selected roommate.
  4. Learning Communities – There are two types of learning communities: Living-Learning Centers (LLCs): which are academic-themed communities and Thematic Communities: which are built on shared interests.
  5. Cost of Housing – There are two options: standard with air conditioning and enhanced. There are more standard with AC spaces on campus.
