MoveUP for Freshmen and New Transfer Students
MoveUP for ALL freshmen and for new transfer students (living in Magnolia or Palmetto) occurs on Saturday, August 19, 2023.
The route on campus begins at University Way and Valley Falls taking you past Health Services. You will follow the route on University Way to the HEC building by taking the roundabout circle onto Gramling Drive. University Police and staff from Parking Services will be located at key intersections to direct the traffic. Excited staff from Enrollment Services will be among some of the first you encounter, ensuring students have paid their bill and do not need to stop in to see anyone from Student Accounts or Financial Aid. Students will receive a ticket for their next step and proceed into the HEC to complete their check-in process and receive their room/suite keys. Families will be directed to the residential lot to await their student.
Students should bring their Upstate picture ID with them for verification.
