Check-in will be done by move-in appointment only. Students' assigned move-in day and appointment times are included in their Housing Assignments (see below). Please make sure to have your Aggie Card or Picture ID with you for check-in.

Please Note: Students must check in during their move-in appointment. There is no after-hours check-in.
