Move-In Day

2021 Fall Residence Move-In

Details will be sent by email with information about the Fall 2021 move-in process, and any protocols related to COVID-19 regulations at that time. Students will receive more information about their move-in time slot via email in August.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are arriving to move in to a self-isolation unit, you will find relevant move-in day information on our self-isolation website here. If you haven’t applied for self-isolation yet (and need to), visit this page here.

What to Expect

We will communicate the move-in process with students by email. Thank you for your understanding as we adapt our move-in plan and make it safe and manageable for you, and our staff.

On Your Move-In Day

Step 1 – Prepare

Complete these checklists: Before you leave home and What to pack. And be sure plan your arrival to coincide with your check-in time (see info above).

Step 2 – Arrive, check in and unload

Plan your route to arrive at your check-in time. We will provide you with more details about where to go (and when) soon.

Step 3 – Park, Recharge, and Get Settled

After your vehicle is unloaded, park it in a nearby long-term parking lot. Parking on campus is free today! Family members and friends are welcome to stay and help. Bring water and snacks, take a break, and prepare to meet your residence community.

Arriving by car?

First off, GPS is great for getting to UBC Okanagan, but once you’re close to campus, follow our signs – we’ll provide you with information about what lot to go to in the coming weeks.

Arriving by taxi?

If you have a lot of luggage, ask the driver to wait while you check in and get your unit keys and then have them drive you to your building.

What if I arrive late?

Arriving outside your pre-determined time? No problem! Starting August 2021, our office will be open 24 hours a day.
