<p>Is the move in date at the dorms August 20th, the weekend before, or do they just randomly assign you a weekend spot? Also, what's the parking situation like for move in?</p>
<p>Move in is the weekend of 18/19; probably triples on Sat and doubles on Sun. Starts in the morning and was very smooth process at Unit 1 (at least) last October. Plenty of carts, plenty of people to check you in, plenty of 15 minute parking to drop of your stuff.</p>
<p>You should get some kind of message about when move-in day is. EVERYONE moves in on the same day regardless of what kind of room you have. Get there early. Parking is hell. If possible, have 2 people come with you. One person to watch your stuff and help you unload, and the other to drive around looking for a parking space. The main goal is to get to your room and claim the bed that you want before your roommates get there. After that, expect to spend 2-3 hours getting stuff up to the room. Don't bother unpacking until you say bye to your parents. You'll have A LOT of free time the first week before classes. And go out to parties with your floormates. It makes for a nice bonding experience. Don't worry, all the frats are expecting herds of freshmen.</p>
<p>Fall 2006 move in for Doubles was on Sunday, the triples moved in on Saturday. </p>
<p>berkeleygirl: what dorm do you live in? sounds like you had a really bad experience last year...</p>
<p>Thanks for the hit on move in dates. Whether it's Sat or Sun, at least I know it's the weekend before. Does everyone come for that and is that when you meet your roommate?</p>
<p>You get your room mate info a few weeks before (as long as they also agreed to have their info released.) E-mail and/or phone.
Almost all freshman seem to move in on move in day and there are ALOT of activities (and parties) for the entire week. It's a good time to make friends, find your way around, have fun, and get settled in... you won't want to miss out.</p>
