Move-In Day for the Fall 2024 Semester is Thursday, August 22, 2024! Halls will open at 9:00 AM. Moving in can be a hectic day full of different emotions and new sights and people, but it doesn’t have to be a mess. There will be staff on hand to help with your move in.
Check in at your assigned building.
Watch for “unloading zone” signs, and be respectful of the 20 minute time limit in these spaces.
Some carts are available on campus, but in case they’re all gone when you arrive, we encourage you to bring your own, as well as any personal belongings that will make you feel comfortable as you settle into your own home.
Elevators will be in use; please be patient for your turn.
Remember to include some familiar comforts from home, like that teddy bear you’ve had since you were six!
Most of all, have fun and enjoy meeting your new neighbors!

Bemidji State University has established a weapons storage area located in lower Walnut Hall. The storage area is the only physical campus space where firearms may be stored. Weapons are not permitted in the residence hall buildings. Weapon lockers are assigned by Residential Life and are regulated by Public Safety. Firearms that are unloaded and completely enclosed in a case may be transported directly to and from the weapons storage area to any campus parking facility. Contact our office to sign up.
