If you are not living with us during the Summer II session, you will receive a packet in the mail in mid-August with detailed information about your unloading, parking, and check-in locations. This packet will also include your move-in parking pass. If you need a reminder about your assigned move-in date/time, please search your Husky mail for an e-mail from our office regarding your housing assignment as your move-in information was included in that e-mail.

****Any student with a continuous contract will NOT follow Summer II move out dates if they are scheduled to move to a new room. Students that fall into this category should NOT make travel plans to leave campus until they confirm their move-in date with their future building staff. This information is not available until the end of each term.
