Arrival and move-in for domestic students

Aug. 29, 2025

Move-in for most first-year and transfer students will take place on Friday, Aug. 29 for the fall semester.

Note: Some students move in earlier for international orientation, PACE or athletics. Early arrival students will receive move-in instructions from their coach or program coordinator.


Move-in details

Those scheduled to arrive on Aug. 29 should visit myhousing.augustana.edu to select an arrival time.

Students should check in at their assigned residence hall, where they will get their room key and student ID.


Commuter arrival

Commuters should arrive between 9 a.m.-12 p.m. at the Gerber Center Gävle Room to pick up their Welcome Week packet and attend morning events. Transfer commuter students will want to arrive to campus in plenty of time to attend the transfer meeting at 11 a.m.

Complimentary lunch is available for all students starting at 11 a.m. Meals are included for all students (no meal plan needed) as part of Welcome Week programming.
