Returning Students Moving to Campus and Move-In Guidelines

Students who will be living on campus must arrive no later than 10 p.m. on August 19. In order to control the number of people in the residence halls, we will have students sign up for a two-hour block to arrive on campus, move their belongings into their room, and get the items they left on campus last spring from storage. Each student may have one person assist them during that time period.

Honor Houses — Students will check in at the house. A schedule will be available at SignUp.com on July 6, 2020, to secure a move in date and time. Each student may have one person assist them during that time period.

Hotels — Students will check in with hotel staff and hotel Resident Assistant. Students will sign up for a check in time
so we are aware when they are arriving.

All students/moving assistants will need to follow all physical distancing guidelines outlined in the Community Pledge.

Students will sign up for a block of time when they will be expected to move into their room. A schedule will be available at SignUp.com on July 6, 2020.
We will allow 30 students + helper(s) every 1-2 hours in each residence hall. Students/moving assistants will need to follow all physical distancing guidelines outlined in the Community Pledge.

Students arriving on campus after August 19 will need to sign up for an appointment with their Area Coordinator at SignUp.com to let the AC know when they are arriving.

Most services will be available to students, although they may need to schedule a time to utilize the service. The Bookstore is still working on a plan for reopening. In the meantime, resources and items available for purchase can be found on the St. Olaf Bookstore website.
