  <title><![CDATA[Fall Move-In]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>The Georgia Tech Housing Department is excited about the arrival of our new residents this fall. We know that parents have many questions about this move, and we want to provide some of the answers.&nbsp; The <a href="http://housing.gatech.edu/Parents/Pages/default.aspx"><em>Information for Parents</em></a> page on our website is a good place to begin.</p><p>On July 2, 2015, detailed move in instructions will be posted on our <a href="http://housing.gatech.edu/Pages/default.aspx">website</a> which will give you important dates, times, locations, and directions. There will be specific links for Freshman, Transfer, and Graduate students. Also, have your student monitor his/her email.&nbsp; New freshmen may move in on August 13, and all other residents move in August 15. When students are packing, they (and their parents) should use our <a href="http://housing.gatech.edu/techlife/Items%20to%20Bring/Pages/default.aspx"><em>Items to Bring</em></a> page for suggestions.&nbsp; Don’t let them pack too much, and encourage communication between roommates to avoid duplicate items.</p><p>After the first week of July, residents should be able to view their room assignment and roommate(s) information in the online <a href="https://login.gatech.edu/cas/login?service=https%3a%2f%2fstarrez.housing.gatech.edu%2fstarrezportal%2fSite%2fGATECH%2fCAS.aspx">application</a>.&nbsp; If a room change is desired, he/she can do this using the Room Swap tab in the <a href="https://login.gatech.edu/cas/login?service=https%3a%2f%2fstarrez.housing.gatech.edu%2fstarrezportal%2fSite%2fGATECH%2fCAS.aspx">application</a>.&nbsp; It is best if all room changes are completed online prior to checking out the room key. If your student has not applied for housing, but would like to do so, the application is still open.</p><p>If you can’t find answers to your questions, please email <a title="Contact Us" href="http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/1355790/25df6ff006b4">information@housing.gatech.edu</a> or give our office a call at 404.894.2470. Thank you for choosing to have your student live in GT campus housing.&nbsp; We value your trust and hope that it is a successful year for all of our residents!</p>]]></body>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
