<p>I'm an incoming freshman and I'll be living in South Hall. An move in tips specific for Wake?</p>
<p>Congrats on South Hall - that’s the new dorm, right? Tips - mostly be patient and be prepared to wait - as you drive up the hill past admissions to get to the dorms - traffic moves slowly. Once you get to the dorm - have it planned out in advance - unload the car quickly - then the driver goes off to park the car and returns on foot. Have your stuff as consolidated as possible - it’s easier to keep track of a large duffel/bin that holds many small items than it is to keep track of many loose items - particularly if it is raining. I labelled bins/duffels with son’s room number just in case a well meaning person grabbed something to help and then got confused as to where he was headed with it. </p>
<p>Mostly - have fun and be patient/calm. There 's lots to do that first day - it would be easy to feel overwhelmed. Best of luck to you!</p>
<p>Thank you! Yes, South is the new dorm.</p>
<p>If it’s like last year, it’s likely your car will be swarmed by volunteers and you’ll be able to get everything to the room in one trip. </p>
<p>Your driver should be someone who won’t mind walking a long way back to South after parking the car.</p>
