Early move-in

Example hero paragraph text.

Get Settled Early

Living on campus in a residential community is an important part of your first-year experience, just like E2! That’s why we developed a way for our out-of-state domestic and international students to request to move in before E2 Camp begins. 

Once you are confirmed for early move in, you will be able to view your early move in date on your E2 registration portal. You can arrive anytime during that noted date and staff will be available to let you in to the residential college. Please note that no additional assistance will be provided for moving in your personal items.

After you get settled in your residential college, you’ll depart for E2! After returning from E2, our team will ensure you have access to meals and we are holding activities in the residential halls for you.

Early move-in requests are now closed.

Priority deadline for requesting early move-in is Friday, June 26, 2026, and the final deadline is Monday, July 13, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. 

You must request early move in when you register for E2.

Please note: If you request an early move-in date, you agree to pay a $49 per-night fee if you do not move in early and/or do not attend E2, and that you will be responsible for moving in your personal items.

Students can verify their E2 camp registration and early move in date by visiting their E2 Application Dashboard.

Starting June 29, students who requested Early Move-In will be sent an email discussing their move-in details. Their myASU may not reflect their early move-in date until the end of July, but your camp registration and communication from our E2 staff serves as your confirmation.

Should you have any questions, email [email protected].

How to request early move-in
