LCU: Move in Instructions

Dear Chaps

We are so ready for your arrival to campus. Move-in Day is always an exciting day because of the anticipation, the energy, and how it serves as a pillar for new beginnings. We are grateful and look forward to what God will do in this 2023-2024 academic year. We welcome you as new students, parents, family, and friends.

Our goal is for the move-in experience to be welcoming, informative, organized, and as safe as possible. Move-in Day is an important step in establishing a culture where we get to practice hospitality, join in this new journey together, and get new students acclimated to their space.

This page is the resource hub for Move-in Day. It contains information pertaining to sign up for a move-in time, designated check-in locations for specific residence halls, and protocols for how to maneuver the process. See the Do’s and Don’ts section for quick answers to questions. Welcome to life at LCU and all the unique opportunities of this upcoming academic year.

Go Chaps!
