Move-In Schedule

Please see the Threshold schedule for additional events and programs during orientation.

  • If you are an international student coming on a non-immigrant visa, an athlete, or a person who needs to arrive early to work on campus, please check with your coach or advisor for your move-in schedule.
  • We are unable to accommodate early arrivals or dropping off of belongings, so please make your travel plans accordingly.
