Dear Students,
We hope you are well and excited to return for another semester at Brown. As you prepare for your return, we want to share information about our self check-in process. This process is how you receive access to your room and inform our staff that you have arrived. All residential students are expected to complete this process upon their arrival to campus. Further instructions about this process are referenced below.
As a reminder, you can view your housing assignment, as well as any roommates or suitemates that are assigned to the space, on the main page of the housing portal.
The residence halls will reopen for the spring semester this Saturday, January 20, 2024 at 8am. Since your fall and spring housing assignments are the same, you should already have your Brown ID card and the keys. Please follow the instructions below when you physically arrive on campus to check-in.
Self Check-in Instructions:
-
Upon arrival to campus, login to the housing portal and click on the Self Check-in button on the home page. Do not start the self check-in process prior to your arrival to campus.
-
Select your Spring 2024 assignment from the Booking Selector page
-
Read the instructions and, if appropriate, continue to the Self Check-in Page
-
Read the instructions on the Self Check-in page and, if appropriate, click “CHECK IN” to check yourself into your Spring 2024 housing assignment. You will receive a confirmation email in the StarRez housing portal and to your Brown University email address.
Early and Late Arrivals:
If you need to arrive prior to January 20, 2024, please request early arrival housing via the Winter Break Housing Form (in the forms process). If you have already been approved for early arrival, you do not need to make a new request unless your arrival date has changed.
If you plan to arrive on or after January 22, 2024, please let us know by completing the Late Arrival Form (in the forms process).
Whether you arrive early (prior to January 20 by request only), during move-in weekend (January 20 and 21), or late (on or after January 22) you must complete the steps for self check-in listed above.
If you have any questions please reply to this email or contact res_life@brown.edu
