UK Campus Housing Updated Move-In Information
LEXINGTON, Ky. (July 9, 2020) — The University of Kentucky has announced that residence hall Fall Move-In is scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 8, through Sunday, Aug. 16. UK classes will begin Monday, Aug. 17.
In order to implement social distancing, all students will be required to select a move-in appointment — a recommended “window” of time for arriving at the unloading area during Fall Move-In. The purpose is to spread out the arrivals throughout the day and encourage social distancing.
Students with room assignments are currently able to select a move-in appointment time.
Follow these steps to schedule your Fall Move-In appointment:
- Log in to myUK.
- Go to your housing portal.
- Select My Forms.
- Complete required forms and select Move-In Appointment.
You will only see dates and times that are available to you based on your residence hall, Living Learning Program and any other pertinent group or organization — if applicable.
You can find more information about move-in tips and appointments here.
Due to COVID-19, students will be limited to two guests to assist during the move-in process. This restriction is necessary to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone during UK Campus Housing Fall Move-in.
The university’s goal is to have all first-time, first-year students moved into their respective residence halls before K Week begins on the evening of Thursday, Aug. 13.
