  • Early Arrivals:

       
  • students may need to arrive early to campus due to their involvement in an approved University function or for personal reasons.

  • Each request, and the corresponding date selected, will then be verified by the sponsoring University department before Residential Living ultimately approves or denies the early arrival request. If you are requesting an early arrival for personal reasons, your "Group" is "Residential Living" and your request will be verified by the appropriate staff member. A fee of $30 per day will be charged to your account for each day you arrive prior to the normal check-in day for personal reasons.

  •    
  • The first date that residents approved for an early arrival for personal reasons may enter the residence halls is Wednesday, August 15, 2007, beginning at 10 am.

Due to residence hall staff training, and hall maintenance and preparations, residents will not be permitted to arrive at any residence hall before Wednesday, August 15 unless the resident is required to arrive early due to an approved University function.
  • Students who arrive early, without getting prior approval will be charged additional fees.

     

  • Please be aware that meal plans will not be in effect for early arrivals. Each student or group must make arrangements to cover meals until University Food Services begin operations for 2007 Fall semester.
