The Fall 2018 semester is fast approaching so we want you to be prepared for moving into the residence halls on campus. Below are the dates and times that you may move onto campus based upon your specific residence hall assignment and whether you are a new, returning, or transfer student.
These times are specifically created to mediate the flow of traffic and congestion in and around the residence halls due to sheer volume of everyone coming to campus. So we appreciate your cooperation in adhering to this schedule. We look forward to having you here at the ‘Ville!
Please feel free to call our office at (717) 871-4200 if you should have any questions or need further clarification.

Additionally, we are seeking volunteers to also help with our transfer student move-in on Saturday, August 25, 2018 from 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM. Movers & Shakers are responsible for meeting and greeting new students, their families, and helping to move students’ belongings into their rooms in the residence halls. Click HERE to find out more.
Early Move-In Requests
Students requesting permission to move in earlier than their regularly scheduled move-in date will be billed accordingly per day prorated for their specific room type for each day that they move in earlier. Students will NOT be permitted to move in earlier than 6:00 PM on Sunday, August 19th due to summer camp and conference occupancy and the need for the custodial team to clean all of the rooms.
Specific arrangements need to be made with your Residential Area Director (RAD) prior to being permitted to move in early:
East Village – Mike Davis
Reighard & Shenks Halls – Matt Rutkoski
South Village – Becka Yerger
West Village – Julia Collett
