The Georgia Tech Housing Department is excited for the arrival of our new residents this fall. We know that parents have many questions about this move, and we want to provide some of the answers. The To Parents page on our website is a good place to begin. In a few weeks, detailed move-in instructions will be posted on Housing website which will give you important dates, times, locations, and directions.

There will be specific links for first-year students, returning undergraduates, transfer, and graduate students. Encourage your student to monitor their email for notifications and updates. Also, check out the Move-in Tips on the Housing website. New first-year students may move in on Thursday and Friday, August 15-16, 2019 and all other residents move in Saturday and Sunday, August 17-18, 2019. 

When students are packing, they should use our Items to Bring page for suggestions. We encourage parents to check out these suggestions as well. Don’t let them pack too much and encourage communication between roommates to avoid duplicate items. 

Students can view their room assignment and roommate(s) information My Housing. If a room change is desired, they can do this using the Room Swap tab in the application. It is best if all room changes are completed online prior to checking out the room key in August. If your student has not applied for housing, but would like to do so, the application is still open.

The assignment staff for the Department of Housing is available to assist you and your student with questions you may have about housing. Call, email, or come to the central office. Thank you for choosing to have your student live in Georgia Tech on-campus housing. We value your trust and hope that it is a successful year for all of our residents!
