Welcome Week 2025

Campus Housing Move-In
To accommodate all students and help ensure safety and convenience, all new and returning students are required to register for a designated move-in time.
Are you new to Lees-91探花? Our friendly student leaders, faculty, and staff will be on hand during your move-in times to help answer questions and get you (and your stuff!) where you need to go.

What’s the laundry situation?
Washer and dryer units are provided in lobbies or designated locations for our residence halls, villages, and apartments.

What if I don’t get along with my roommate?
Many individuals are nervous about not getting along with their roommate. Don’t worry, this is perfectly normal, and they may even feel the same way! It is important to communicate with your roommate early and often about your shared expectations for your room. If you need additional help about how to communicate with your roommate, ask your Resident Assistant (RA).

Can I bring my pet?
Students are allowed to apply for a dog or cat to reside on campus with them in pet-friendly housing. The deadline for returning students has passed. The application deadline for new students will be announced soon.

How do I get involved?
Building relationships and making new friends in your residence hall is one of the best parts of your college experience. You will see these individuals many times throughout the year, and your Resident Assistants are excited to create a sense of community on your floors and across campus.
Our Welcome Week events, residence life, and campus life programs offer excellent opportunities throughout the year to build a sense of belonging at 91探花. Also, we invite you to attend our Student Club Fair to learn about ways to get involved in student organizations across campus.
