Students will have the opportunity to select a specific time slot for their arrival to campus. This time slot is when students will arrive to the University Center for their check-in and then they will proceed to their residence hall. Time slots have been created to help us manage traffic around the residence halls and we ask that all students please arrive no earlier than 30 minutes prior to their time slot. Students arriving earlier may be asked to wait until closer to their scheduled arrival time to get checked in. Students who arrive late may also be asked to wait as we work to fit them into the schedule.
To help students and their families plan for move in, the following schedule is an outline of when each building will be moving in. Please note that first year students will be focused on Monday through Wednesday and returning students will be focused on Thursday and Friday. Centennial Hall will also have move in times available on Saturday.
Please see below for the move-in date and times available for your residence hall move-in. When the portal opens in mid-July, you will only be able to see your specific day/times. If you have a conflict with your scheduled arrival day and need to schedule a different day, please email housing-movein@valdosta.edu.
