Move In

Spring 2023 Move In

New and transfer students beginning at UWRF during the Spring 2023 semester can check in by reporting to the Residence Life office on January 19 from 8-4:30 p.m. with valid photo idenitification.

Students who cannot meet that timeframe can report to their assigned residence hall on January 19 from 6-10 p.m. with valid photo identification to check in.

Fall 2023 Move In

Each student has a 30 minute move in timeslot on a date between September 3-6. That move in day and time may be found on the "My Room Assignment" page in the Housing Portal. This information was also emailed to all students' UWRF email accounts.

This is your 30-minute move-in timeslot when you will unload your vehicle near your residence hall. Once unloaded, the vehicle must be moved to a parking lot and you can continue to unpack at your leisure.

After the car has been moved, you will go inside the hall, show staff your UWRF student ID, get your key, and begin bringing your things inside to your new room.

Each residence hall has a limited number of large red moving carts as well as rubber mallets, which are used to adjust the height or loft the bed.

Those who use the large red moving carts are asked to return them to the lobby in a timely manner to allow others to access the carts.

Students and families are welcome to bring their own dollies, carts, etc.

Students who have a reason to move in prior to the assigned move in date should contact the Department of Residence Life for further information. Not all requests to move in early will be approved.

Learn more about connecting to the WiFi, registering items such as gaming systems and streaming devices, and connecting to the Guest Network prior to move-in.

Learn more about mail and your hall mailing address.

A loft kit is available in each residence hall room. Residence Life is unable to loft beds prior to move-in, but will assist as able when requested during move-in. Rubber mallets are used to adjust bed height and loft beds. A limited number of rubber mallets are available in each residence hall.
