Move In Day is Saturday, August 16, 2025

  • All Move In details will be sent to your MCC Student Email - be sure to check it regularly for your personalized move in schedule, check-in location, and any additional instructions. 

Tips for Move In Day: 

  • Label All Belongings Clearly
    Use tags, masking tape, or stickers to label each box/item with your room number and your full name. This ensures your items end up in the right place and are easy to identify.

  • Sort Belongings by Room
    If you're moving into the College Crossing Apartments, label boxes by the room they belong to — e.g., “Kitchen,” “Bedroom,” or “Bathroom.” It’ll save you a lot of time when unpacking.

  • Pack Essentials Separately
    Keep a small bag or box with first-day essentials like toiletries, medications, a phone charger, snacks, and a change of clothes so you’re not digging through boxes right away.

  • Bring a Dolly or Rolling Cart (if possible)
    Carts may be available, but having your own can make moving faster and easier — especially for heavier items.

  • Dress Comfortably and Check the Weather
    Move-in can mean a lot of walking, lifting, and possibly standing in line. Dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.

  • Stay Hydrated and Take Breaks
    Don’t forget to drink water and pace yourself — it's a marathon, not a sprint!

  • Follow Check-In Instructions Carefully
    Watch for signage and staff guidance when you arrive. Check-in locations and procedures may vary by building.
