CARE students have a different move-in schedule which will be emailed to you directly
Scheduling Your Summer B Move-In Day and Time
All students are required to sign up for a move-in day and time. The link to sign up for move-in will be emailed to students at their fsu.edu email address.
How to Schedule Your Move-In Appointment
- Move-in appointments will occur Thursday, June 22 through Sunday, June 26.
- We are utilizing Sign Up Genius to schedule move-in appointments. You do not need to create a Sign Up Genius account to participate.
- You will receive a Sign Up Genius link specific to your building. This link will be emailed to your FSU email account. Do not share that link with students who live elsewhere; it will not work for them.
- You can sign up for one appointment only. Each appointment one hour long. In that hour you should check in to get your key, unload your vehicle, and move your vehicle to a parking garage. You may walk back to your residence hall to finish setting up your room.
- There are more than enough appointments for all students.
- There are weekday and weekend appointment options.
- If your preferred day and time is not available, we cannot schedule you for a day that already has all the slots taken. Please choose an appointment that is closest to your preference. The number of move in slots per day has been carefully calculated to allow for a smooth check in process for everyone.
- You must use your FSU email (@fsu.edu) to schedule your move-in appointment. Sign Up Genius will not recognize or accept a non-FSU email address.
Before You Arrive at FSU

Move in Tips

- There are limited hand-trucks/dollies and moving carts available for checkout on a first-come, first-serve basis at the hall desks.
- Make sure you have entered your emergency contact information on the housing portal before you arrive.
Pets at Move–In
It is hot in Tallahassee in summer and pets are not allowed in the residence halls. Please leave your pets at home for their own safety and comfort.
Register your Vehicle
Good parking habits begin early. Register your vehicle early.
Day of Your Arrival at FSU
When you arrive to your residence hall, you must have a picture ID (FSUCard or Driver’s License) available. You must be present to sign for and receive your room key. Find your assignment on the myHousing portal.
Parking Guidelines
Even though classes are not in session during check–in week, the University is open for business and staff and faculty are actively preparing for your arrival. Check–in is a busy time for the University, and the parking lots and streets by residence halls can become congested. The following guidelines will help make your check-in experience positive while allowing University operations to function.
Unloading Parking (10–15 minutes)
- There are very limited parking spaces adjacent to the residence halls. If they are available, you will be able to use these spaces to unload your vehicle only. Parking for vehicle unloading is short term only.
Parking After Unloading
- After unloading, you must immediately move your car to a parking lot or parking garage.
You are encouraged to download the FSU Tranz app for your iOS or Android smartphone for availability in the campus parking garages.
Good parking habits begin early. Register your vehicle early and park in student parking spaces as soon as possible.
Guests
For safety reasons, residents must escort their guests, including family members, at all times while guests are in the building.
Problems with your Room?
If you have any facilities concerns with your room during check–in, please speak with your building’s Facilities Supervisor. Your Facilities Supervisor can be reached through the front desk in your residence hall. After check–in, you are encouraged to submit a housing facilities repair request through our website.
Remember to Drink Water!
The average temperature in Tallahassee in June is 91°F. Stay hydrated while moving into your residence hall. We recommend bringing a reusable water bottle.
After You Move In
