Beyond packing for move-in, take a little time to prepare for living on your own:

• Health Insurance
  Health insurance is not required but strongly encouraged. Bring a copy of your insurance card or documentation in case you need medical care while on campus.
• Renters Insurance
  91制片厂 does not insure residents' belongings and your items will not be covered if damaged by fire, flooding, or other unforeseeable incidents. We strongly encourage residents purchase renter鈥檚 insurance. If your family has homeowners insurance, check whether your belongings on campus are already covered.
• Bank Access
  Make sure you can easily access your money once you arrive. Look up nearby branches or ATMs if you use a national bank. Otherwise, consider opening an account with a local bank near campus.
• Label as You Pack
  Label boxes, bins, and bags with your name and contents as you pack to prevent items from getting mixed up during move-in.
• Mark Valuables
  Consider adding identifying information to valuables so they can be returned if lost or stolen and later recovered. Adding your name, phone, and/or ID number by engraving or with a discreet permanent marker works well.

Reaching out before move-in can help make the first day much smoother:

• Exchange contact info and get their preferred number, email, or social media
• Introduce yourself and get to know each other (major, interests, etc.)
• Plan who is bringing commonly shared items like TV, mini fridge, game console, etc.
• Set basic expectations and discuss ways you will share the room, including guests, cleanliness, noise, and resolving issues
• Plan on a shopping trip your first week of school so you can split shared supplies

A few weeks before move-in you will receive instructions on how to sign up for a move-in timeslot:

• Timeslots run between 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. (08:00-17:00)
• Arrive within your scheduled hour to check-in
• Can't make your timeslot? Contact Housing to adjust your arrival time.

Some programs, such as the Honor鈥檚 College or athletic teams, may require you move-in early. Check any communications from your program or from Housing concerning early arrival.
