Emory University: When exactly can my student move in, and do they need an appointment?

By CollegeHousing.ai · Sources checked · 2026-27

DIRECT ANSWER

For Fall 2026, first-year and transfer students not in pre-orientation were scheduled to move in August 22; returning residents were scheduled for August 23. Students use MyHousing for their assigned move-in time.

Emory’s Fall 2026 move-in page lists August 22, 2026 for first-year and transfer students who are not participating in a pre-orientation program and August 23 for returning residents. The move-in process uses assigned or selected time information in MyHousing, so families should follow the student’s specific appointment details rather than arrive at an arbitrary time.
