As a new resident, you are bound to have questions. We design residence week of welcome around you, helping to uncover the answers to the questions you have, and providing you information about resources, programs and services. Residence week of welcome is an opportunity for you to learn how to navigate campus and introduce you to the community. We look forward to meeting you!
Move in day
May 2, 2019
Welcome to residence! This is the day that you move in to your new room, meet your Community Advisor (CA) and fellow residents for the first time.
Community Meeting: At 6 p.m. you will meet your Community Advisor (CA) and fellow residents and have your first community meeting.
Residence 101: All new residents must attend the Residence 101 presentation on May 2, 2019 at 7 p.m. Your CA will take you to this presentation once your Community Meeting is finished. This presentation introduces you to living in residence, goes over some important information, and introduces you to the various staff you will interact with throughout your time in SFU Residence and Housing.
