Residence Hall Fall 2026 Move-In
Welcome Home!
The staff of K-State Housing and Dining Services is excited to welcome you to your campus community and your new home away from home!
A note for parents, guardians and families: you may or may not receive all the same communication your student receives. Please encourage your student to begin regularly checking their K-State email address. Please also plan to join us for a webinar to discuss Move-In in July. These times and dates may be adjusted and will be solidified by late spring.
Residence halls open Wednesday, Aug. 19, 2026 for the academic year. Students planning to arrive early may move in Sunday, Aug. 16, 2026 or Tuesday, Aug. 18 2026 for an additional fee of $55.00/day for each day prior to the official opening day.
Appointments:
Housing and Dining Services will send a notification to all residents via their K-State email when move-in appointments are available. Residents can expect to receive this email in July.
Sorority Recruitment and Marching Band Students: Move-In details for students participating in these programs will also be sent in July. Registration with Band and/or Sorority Recruitment is required prior to signing up for an arrival appointment.
