Undergraduate Move-In And Move-Out

MOVE-IN

We’re excited to welcome you to your new home on campus! Time to start planning and get ready to move in. Mark your calendar for student move-in August 24-28, 2022.

In early August, students will be contacted to select a specific time slot for a day and time to move-in from time slots available. To smooth your move and ease traffic around the halls, all move-in times will be by your pre-selected time slots only.

EARLY UNDERGRADUATE MOVE-IN FOR FALL

If you are part of a program that moves in early (for example, the U-M Marching Band), please contact your program directly for move-in details.
