*For most residents, move-in day is August 20. However, scholarship hall residents, or residents who have gone through the process to be approved for early move in, may arrive earlier. Find your move-in date and arrival time in the instructions.
Move-in day is full of excitement (and typically a little hot Kansas weather). A small army of volunteers called JaySquad help cart new residents' belongings to their rooms. Students eagerly anticipate the coming school year and friends and family take photos at every turn.
