New Student Move-in for Residential Students

In August, 3,000 new Syracuse University (SU) students and 500 new ESF stuents will arrive on campus for move-in and orientation . A move-in pass system is in place to keep the process organized.

Move-in Pass

*Almost all new ESF and SU students are required to download a move-in pass from the SU new student orientation website to ensure that arrival and move-in are smooth and efficient. (*students participating in special programs requiring them to arrive prior to Wednesday, August 26 (i.e. pre-orientation programs, athletic teams, and the marching band) do not need a move-in pass.)

Special Notes

• First year ESF students will need to move-in on Wednesday, August 26 between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. to be available for a welcome session to kick off Orientation at 3 p.m.
