Simmons College

Overview

Your first stop will be to check in with Orientation at Alumnae Hall. There, you will receive your Orientation materials including your schedule for the first week of the academic year, your Residence Hall Key, and your Fenway Card, which you will need to access your building. To pick up your ID you will need to present a state issued ID: Driver's license, State ID, US or foreign passport, Military ID, or INS I-1551 resident alien card.

Following your registration, you will be directed to your residence hall to begin your move-in process. If arriving by car, you may unload from your designated unloading location. Once you unload your belongings, Public Safety officers will direct you to move your vehicle to the parking garage on the main campus. It is important to keep these unloading zones free from traffic, so there will be "Street Team" volunteers assisting you unloading belongings into carts. We encourge you to have your family stay with your car and start unloading while you pick up your Orientation Materials and Key.

Unloading Zones

New students may move into their residence halls between 8:30 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 30, 2009. When you arrive at the residence campus you will be directed to an unloading zone designated for your building.

Please refer to the residence campus map for building numbers and directions to get to campus: http://www.simmons.edu/visit/maps/residence.shtml The unloading zones will be on in the following locations and marked with balloons in the building's official colors:

Simmons Hall, Pilgrim Rd. Side (6)	Pilgrim Rd.	Yellow

In addition, if you need a two-wheeled dolly, they will be available for check out with a State Issued ID at a table in the middle of the residence quad by the Orientation staff.
