Move-In Day

New residential students (including transfer students) should plan to move into their Residence Halls on Friday, August 23rd between 9am and 11am. New students returning to campus on the morning on 8/23 will need to first report to the Griswold Theatre Lobby in the Karen Sprague Cultural Arts Center to finalize any paperwork due to the College and pick up their student ID.

When arriving at the Griswold Lobby, please park in the “I” Lot on the corner of Maynard and State Street and enter through the Griswold Lobby. Once you receive you student ID, you’ll be cleared to move into your perspective Residence Hall. For full Move-In Day Logistics visit www.aic.edu/movein.
