    • If you are a CURRENT residence hall student and will be residing in the apartments in fall 2026, you will NOT be able to move into your apartment until fall 2026 move-in day (August 13). Exceptions will be granted for early move-in days for university-related activities, such as athletes or band members who have to return to campus early. Those details will be announced this summer.
    • Students in Ridge Pointe and Reddie Villas can opt to move to West Hall (summer housing), but you must move all of your belongings and fully check out of your apartment for the summer.
