The check-in process takes place in the lobby of the building you are living in (except Hoover will check in at Royce). Please remember to bring your SJSU Tower card and/or picture ID as well as your Assignment Letter. You will be given an access card, a key, and other important information. Once check-in is complete, you will be free to move into your room at your leisure.
You must complete the check-in process by Sunday, August 23rd by 10pm. If you are unable to check in by the deadline, please contact University Housing Services at reslifeasst@housing.sjsu.edu or call (408) 795-5621.
We suggest that you bring your own dolly to ensure a smooth and timely move in.
During check-in, you will be able to park in specially designated unloading areas around the buildings with a UHS permit with a 30 minute time limit. Once you have unloaded your vehicle it must be moved to the South (7th St.) Garage. Permits will be available from UHS staff on the day of your move-in. The permit allows you a maximum of 30 minutes to unload your vehicle. Please be aware that you risk being ticketed if you park outside of the specially designated unloading areas, without the UHS Permit, or for longer than 30 minutes.
Residents who have purchased an SJSU Parking Permit through SJSU Parking Services will have their permits mailed to them (if you purchased the permits far enough in advance) or permits may be picked up at the Parking Services office in the 7th Street Garage. Any questions regarding the SJSU Parking Permits can be directed to Parking Services at (408) 924-6556
