Move in Day and Classes

How many days after move in day until classes start? I’m sure it’s different for every school but if someone could give me an idea?

It depends on how much orientation your school has…or if they do some orientation during the summer.
One of my daughters had 5 days and one had a weekend.

Colleges usually have their calendars posted on their website. That should give you an idea how the schools you’re considering work.

When my friends were attending U of L, they moved into their dorm about a week or two before classes started.

It varies by school. Most schools that I’ve seen have freshmen move in about a week before classes start. The week in between move in and classes is freshmen orientation.

However certain people (ROTC, RAs, athletes, people who signed up for pre-orientation, etc) may move in weeks before their peers.
