Campus Housing & Community Living
On-campus housing at SUNY Plattsburgh is a safe, secure, well-maintained environment where your social and academic needs are our #1 concern.
All on-campus students will be required to be fully vaccinated to live in their residence hall room for the the 2022–2023 academic year. For more information including how to seek an exemption to this policy please visit the Housing & Campus Life COVID-19 Information page.
Move-in Dates for Fall 2022

New Students
Arrival dates are split between two days. Students will be assigned a day based on the first letter of their last name.
- Thursday, August 25, 2022, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. — Students whose first letter of their last name falls between A and M
- Friday, August 26, 2022, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. — Students whose first letter of their last name falls between N and Z
Returning Students
Arrival dates are split between two days. Students will be assigned a day based on the first letter of their last name.

- Sunday, August 28, 2022, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. — Students whose first letter of their last name falls between N and Z
If you need to change your assigned move-in time, there will be limited opportunity to do so. The phased move-in allows for social distancing and reduced density throughout the process. As such, we need students to arrive to move in during their assigned time frames and ask that every effort to keep this assigned date and time is taken.
We do not have the capacity to accept reservations for move-in times so please wait to see what day you’ve been assigned before contacting the campus housing office.

We’ve invested a lot in the renovations of our halls with your success in mind. We have fun, learn and grow together, and develop a strong sense of community. Living on campus will support your success!
Students are required to live on-campus for two academic years (four semesters). Nearly all first-year and sophomore, and many junior, senior and graduate-level students live on-campus.
Students who believe they have met this requirement or one of the college’s other exemptions may request to live off campus.
