We Can Help
We don't expect you to move in completely on your own. If you need help, here is a short list of people who will be available during move-in and a description of what they will be available to assist you with.
Resident advisors (RAs) are student leaders and employees who live on each residence hall floor. They will be available at check-in tables and throughout the building during move-in to answer questions you may have.
Get Connected computer support teams will be in your residence hall during move-in, Wednesday, August 19 through Saturday, August 22 to help you secure your computer and connect to the Virginia Tech network and the Internet.
Since the Internet isn't without its bad guys, you'll want to secure your computer right away. To do so, run the VTNet CD before connecting to the network. A VTNet CD can be found in the phone package in your residence hall room.
For more information about securing your computer, visit the Lock It Down website. To view information about Get Connected, visit the tutorials.
Team Hokies is a group of more than 300 student volunteers who help students and their parents move into residence hall rooms during regular check-in on Friday, August 21, and Saturday, August 22.
Team Hokies will be located on Washington Street and can be recognized by their T-shirts. These volunteers can help you unload vehicles, watch over belongings while you park your car, and carry items with you to your room.
With this additional help, the move-in process becomes much easier and quicker, giving you more time to explore campus, settle in, and say goodbye. Volunteers finish their work in mid-afternoon.
