Move-in logistics will be provided closer to the date. Students are encouraged to regularly check their WVSU email throughout the summer for updates and important housing-related communications.
Important Note: Students who wish to arrive on campus before their designated move-in date must receive written approval from the Director of Housing and Residence Life. Without this approval, students will be responsible for securing alternative housing off-campus and will not be granted access to the residence halls. There is no early arrival housing available without prior, written authorization.
We take pride in ensuring our residence halls are clean, safe, and fully prepared before students arrive. During the days leading up to move-in, our team completes essential maintenance and deep cleaning throughout the buildings. This preparation is key to making sure our greatest assets, our students, walk into a space that’s welcoming, comfortable, and ready to support their success from day one.
