Check-In Station Locations

Review the list of Check-In stations for Transfer, Combined Plan, and Exchange students.

At your Check-In station, you will pick up your CUID, which will be encoded with your room and building access and function as your room key. If you live in a hard key building, you will also pick up your room key. Once you have completed Check-In, you may proceed to your room.

Please bring a government-issued photo ID to Check-In.
