Move-in Tips
To better assist with traffic and congestion at the residence halls, please obey signs and staff for designated unloading and parking zones. We ask that you please unload and move your vehicle before moving items to your room and unpacking. This will help ensure vehicles aren't left unattended in a traffic lane and keeps the front of the buildings clear for folks to unload.
Please refer to our list of what items to bring. This also includes a list of items that are not permitted in the residence halls. Starting now, please be sure to reach out to your roommate to discuss who's bring what, and also have conversations about what you'll expect of each other. Avoid bringing too many large or duplicate items by sharing your packing lists with each other.
Early Arrival Requests
We're glad you are ready to join us on campus! Our staff needs time to make sure everything is just right for you when you arrive, so unfortunately, we cannot allow early move-ins. If extenuating circumstances exist that the student believes would warrant an earlier move-in day, then the student should email ResidenceLife@dbq.edu. Requests must be made at least three business days prior to the requested arrival date. All requests must be made by 4:00 p.m. on Friday, August 15. Requests that are not made three business days in advance of the requested arrival date, or by the deadline above, will not be considered. If a request is approved and an exception is made, the student would be charged a daily early arrival fee for housing expenses (all charges would be applied directly to the student's account).
