OWL Move In Details

August 4, 2015

We hope you have enjoyed your summer and are getting excited to come to campus as part of the OWL (Ohio State Welcome Leader) program. We're looking forward to having you join us and appreciate your contribution to our Move-In process.

OWL assisted Move-In is scheduled for Thursday, August 20, 2015 from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. All OWLs will start the move in process at the Buckeye Lots at the Schottenstein Center; please use the Ackerman Road exit. From the Buckeye and Gray Lots, you will be directed to your residence hall and receive your key from the hall front desk. Student staff will be available during this timeframe to assist you with moving your belongings.

There are many fun activities and events from Thursday afternoon through Move-In Day (please note that you will be very busy all weekend, as all training and activities are mandatory). When you check in at the front desk, you will receive the OWL schedule (program officially beginning at 3:00 p.m. on Thursday, August 20 - a tentative schedule, subject to change is posted to the right), as well your assigned building for Saturday's move in. Autumn dining plans also start on August 20 and will be used as you participate in the OWL program.

Please contact the Housing Office at housing@osu.edu or 614-292-8266 if you need to cancel or have any questions about OWL Move-In on August 20th. If you have questions about the schedule of events, please contact your OWL program Co-Chairs, Matt studenmund.4@osu.edu or Nate lyell.4@osu.edu.
