Whether you're a new student joining us for the first time, a student joining us from another institution or Penn State campus, or a student returning to University Park, we're excited to welcome you to campus!
New and returning students can move into their on-campus residence halls on Saturday, January 6. For more information about the spring arrival process, visit arrival.psu.edu. Please note that there will be limited food options available in the HUB-Robeson Center over the weekend; normal operations will resume on Monday, January 8. For more information on HUB Dining hours, visit the HUB Dining webpage.
Once you’re in town and settled, Spring Welcome kicks off right away with a handful of events for you to look forward to throughout the weekend and the first week of classes. You’ll have the opportunity to engage in large- and small-scale activities, events designed for the entire spring cohort and population-specific events like our Academic College Welcomes, and learn what it’s like to be a student here on campus.
