Move-In Day and Welcome Week activities for first year and transfer students begin on Saturday, Aug. 20.
The NDSU campus will bustle with activity Saturday, Aug. 20, as hundreds of students move into the residence halls for the start of fall semester.
Volunteers will be on hand to welcome the Move-In Day arrivals and ensure the process goes smoothly. Families are encouraged to come to campus between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m.
“Move-In Day is an exciting day for the NDSU community,” said Rian Nostrum, director of Residence Life. “We get to welcome back our returning students while meeting all the new members of the Bison family. We recognize it can be a day filled with emotion, so we do our best to make the move-in process simple. The entire campus works hard attending to all the details so students and families have a great first impression on opening day. We love seeing campus transform into a vibrant community over the course of a few hours.”
Driving instructions have been supplied for each hall to allow the volume of vehicles to be spread between the various roadways coming to campus. Parents and students are urged to follow the instructions they have received and ignore their GPS once they get to Fargo.
NDSU Dining Centers, coffee shops and food court are open on Move-in Day. Dining Centers have a discounted lunch rate of $8 per person on Saturday for all friends and families.
After students have moved in, they can head to the Memorial Union to get last-minute supplies at the NDSU Bookstore, or assistance from NDSU One Stop (student account info, financial aid, tuition, payments, scholarships, etc.). Watch for afternoon activities, including an ice cream social, Wellness Center tours and other events.
