Moving in to Residence - 2011

As an incoming resident, you are about to experience a thrilling move-in weekend.  Over just two days, hundreds of persons will be moving out of residence and over 2500 students will be moving in. It's a must-see event! Our volunteers love to help; you can rely on them for directions and assistance. They'll be easy to spot with their hats. 

Until then, be prepared:

Moving in smoothly

  • To better welcome you to residence, and to ensure that everything is ready for you when arrive, we are asking you to plan your trip to Ottawa so you can move in to residence on your assigned date and time. We will notify you by email soon after you have returned your signed residence agreement; and a confirmation will follow by mail with a color-code move-in card and a set of instructions.
  • Bring your coloured-coded move-in card with you and be prepared to show it upon your arrival. Our volunteers will show you the way to your 15-minute drop-off zone. Once you have unpacked your vehicle, you will be asked to move it to a designated parking lot on campus.
  • It is not possible to move in earlier. The allotted time for cleaning and repairs is very short and we want to make sure that all units are in good state. When moving in to an apartment style residence, be aware that some rooms are already occupied by residents who have renewed their stay. Items found in the shared living areas most likely belong to your roommates. Please be respectful of other persons' belongings and privacy.
  • Call or email us at 613-562-5885 (residence@uottawa.ca) if you have not received your move-in card by mid-August.

Remember: show up on the date and within the time slot indicated on your move-in card. Your room will not be ready any sooner.

Once we have received your signed residence agreement, your arrival date and time will also be available via uoZone. Go to InfoWeb and look for the Housing tab, under Admissions.
