August 17th, 2019 is the start of Mean Green Move-In Weekend for the Fall 2019 semester.

In order to provide ease of access and reduce traffic congestion, you will receive an email inviting you to arrive at a designated time on either August 17th or 18th. We urge you to plan to arrive at your assigned time.

For Mean Green Move-In Weekend, the UNT campus community comes together to provide volunteer assistance to residents and their families as they make the transition to living on campus. Student organizations, staff, faculty, administrators and members of the Denton Community are on hand to help facilitate a speedy move-in to all of the residence halls.
