Residence Hall Move-In Plan

Moving in to the Residence Halls for Fall and Spring Semesters

All students moving into the residence halls are required to select a move-in appointment prior to arrival. The Housing Operations Staff will send out full details to all students with directions on how to select a move in appointment. Please note that students will be required to complete their Housing Agreement, their Housing Pre-Arrival Form, their Insurance form, AND ensure their student account is in good standing before they will be able to select a move in appointment.

Move in details (and directions for new students regarding selecting a move in appointment) will be sent as follows:

  • Fall arrivals - some information about move in will be sent throughout the summer, but formal details of how to select a move in appointment, and what to expect when moving in, will be shared in an email sent in August
  • Spring arrivals - details about selecting a move in appointment, and what to expect when moving in, will be shared in an email sent in January
  • Spring returning student move in (for students who lived on campus in the fall and are returning from winter break) - an email will be sent in November with move in reminders (note: fall resident students returning from winter break will not need to select a move in appointment prior to arrival)

  • New students, including First Year, Transfer and Graduate students entering Pace for the first time this semester, are asked to select a move-in appointment on the Primary Move-In Days for their campus. These are:

    • Westchester Campus: Saturday, August 31, 2024
    • New York City Campus: Friday, August 30 and Saturday August 31, 2024

    New undergraduate students who participate in a Virtual Orientation over the summer and will therefore attend the follow up in-person Orientation workshops on Friday, August 30 are asked to complete the Early Arrival Request Form (which will be available in MyHousing in the first week of August to students who have met all requirements to select a move in appointment). In that form they should indicate the campus on which they are attending the August 30 orientation. Based on that, they will have the following move in appointment options to choose from:

    • Attending in NYC Â鶹´«Ã½“ students will be able to select an arrival time from 4:00 p.m.Â鶹´«Ã½“10:00 p.m. on Thursday August 29
    • Attending in Pleasantville - students will be able to select an arrival time from 10:00 a.m.Â鶹´«Ã½“12:00 p.m. on Friday August 30

    New students who have a need to arrive early for any other reason must email the housing office. Tuesday. August 27, 2024 is the earliest date that can be requested through this process, and is the earliest we can accommodate arrivals for the fall semester*. The date the dining halls will open has not yet been determined for the fall, but dining may not be available for all early arrival dates, and during the early arrival period dining services will be limited. Please also note that move-in support, including security assistance with traffic management and the availability of moving bins and volunteer moving help, will be limited on August 27, 28, 29, and after September 2, 2024.

    *there will be limited exceptions made for students participating in a pre-fall program; students in these programs should follow directions provided by their program organizer.
