    Check-in & Move-in
    Students must sign up in advance for a move-in time, so please use the link on the Orientation home page to select your day and time to Check-in. Once you go through our Check-in process, you are able to move in. 

    ERAU Check-in/Move-in will offer two options to balance convenience and Florida's rainy summer weather:

    • A drive-through process in the mornings from 8 am - 1 pm. Students and families will be able to stay in their cars as they proceed through getting keys and Orientation materials and then may head directly to the residence halls to unload their belongings.

    • A Student Union option in the afternoons from 2 - 5 pm.  Students and families can park near the Union and go to the Union Event Center to check in and receive their keys and Orientation materials.  After that, you can drive to the residence halls to move in!
