What Is a Tech-In Timeslot?

A Tech-In Timeslot is a required, designated Tech-In window that each student must select in advance to move into their residence hall. Assigning specific arrival times helps reduce wait times, improve traffic flow, and ensure a smoother, more organized, and safer experience for all students and their families.

No matter which Tech-In Timeslot you choose, our staff will be ready to help make your Tech-In experience as smooth as possible.
