Moving into a Residence Hall

The Office of Housing and Residential Life is excited that you have chosen to live in one of our Residence Halls or in our newly renovated Furnished Undergraduate Apartment Style Housing. We’ve created a Move-In Guide to assist with your transition to WSU and to simplify your move-in process. The Move-In Guide provides important information about what to bring, what to leave at home, safety and security, building security, and what to expect for your move-in day. Check out our Fall 2012 Move-In Guide (pdf). Our Fall 2012 Move-In Guide will also be mailed out with your assignments package. Housing assignments will go out mid-July.

Also take a look at the Residence Hall Community Living Guide (pdf) for our complete list of policies and procedures that all campus residents must follow.

Immunizations

All students MUST have their immunization record on file in the Campus Health Center prior to moving in. Immunizations records can be entered online through the E-Health Portal or records can be faxed to (313) 577-9581 or mailed to the Campus Health Center at 5200 Anthony Wayne Drive, Suite 115 Detroit, MI 48202.

Check-In Pass

In order to move into your residence hall or furnished apartment you must have a Check-In Pass, signifying that you are cleared to move in. A Check-In Pass is a post card that will be sent to residents via postal mail or WSU email after they have been financially cleared to move in. To be financially cleared, students must pay their entire account balance or be able to show that they will have the funds available through a payment plan or with an accepted financial aid package. It is important to have your Check-In Pass available within reach when you arrive to campus to expedite your move in process.

Warrior Welcome Crew

Are you an upper class student? Have you lived on campus previously? Do you want to be a leader and meet new people? The Office of Housing and Residential Life is looking for volunteers for fall semester move-in. Volunteers may work check-in tables, assist students in moving their belongings to their rooms, direct traffic, and more!

As a volunteer you must attend an all-day training before move in and be available to work on on both the Saturday and Sunday of fall semester move-in. If you are selected you can move in early on the Thursday prior to move-in.
