BOZEMAN - Approximately 4,600 students are expected to move into residence halls at Montana State University on Aug. 18-19 as the university welcomes students back for fall classes.

"We're excited to welcome all of our new and returning students to campus," said Korrin Fagenstrom, senior associate director for University Student Housing. "We've worked hard with our campus partners and our campus community to make sure parents, students and their families' members feel welcome to campus and begin to make MSU their home."

Incoming students register for two-hour time slots to move into their assigned residence halls between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 18, and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 19. Students can register for a time slot on the housing portal.

Early move-in is available for some students who are attending orientation sessions or are members of certain programs. Details on early move-in are available on the University Student Housing website.

Montana State has 12 residence halls with a variety of living options, including single and co-ed buildings and floors. Students also have a chance to choose special living options or living learning communities, which allow them to be grouped with those of similar lifestyle.
