Arriving to Your Residence Hall
- Students should make every effort to make their scheduled move-in appointment on time in order to promote an efficient move-in process for all.
- When you arrive at your residence hall, ensure you have a picture ID available (preferably your FSUCard, though a state-issued ID will be fine). Residents must be present to sign for and receive your room key.
- Remember to check the myHousing portal to see your residence hall and room. Move-in day and time signups will become available shortly after assignments are published.
Scheduling Your Move-In Day and Time
All students are required to sign up for a move-in day and time.The link to sign up for move-in will be emailed to students at theirfsu.edu email address.
How to Schedule Your Move-In Appointment
- Move-in appointments will occur Friday, August 16th through Sunday, August 25th.
- Friday, August 16th is reserved for sorority recruitment move in.
- General move in appointments will be available on August 17th, 18th and daily August 21st—August 25th.
- We are utilizing Sign Up Genius to schedule move-in appointments. You do not need to create a Sign Up Genius account to participate.
- You will receive a Sign Up Genius link specific to your building. This link will be emailed to your FSU email account. Do not share that link with students who live elsewhere; it will not work for them.
- You can sign up for one appointment only. Each appointment one hour long. In that hour you should arrive on campus, check in to get your key, unload your vehicle, and move your vehicle to a parking garage. You may walk back to your residence hall to finish setting up your room.
- There are more than enough appointments for all students.
- There are weekday and weekend appointment options.
- If your preferred day and time is not available, we cannot schedule you for a day that already has all the slots taken. Please choose an appointment that is closest to your preference.
- You must use your FSU email (@fsu.edu) to schedule your move-in appointment. Sign Up Genius will not recognize or accept a non-FSU email address.
