Arrival Schedules for Naismith Hall

Naismith Hall residents will move in Thursday, August 17.

Please help by observing the correct schedule. Arrival times are the window of time you need to be at the "start" position on your map, not at the door of your building. Student Housing employees will be staffing the elevators to ensure that they go to the proper floor that corresponds to the arrival times below.

Students who cannot make their arrival window will need to sign-up for an alternative time through their myKU portal. If you arrive outside your arrival time, you may be delayed.

Approved Early Arrivals

In extenuating circumstances, students may request an early move-in through their myKU portal, subject to approval. If approved a nightly fee will be charged to the student.
