• Move-In Day Parking Instructions: 
  - Check the campus map to find out where your residence hall is located. Go to the parking lot nearest to your residence hall.
  - Look for signs in the parking lot with instructions concerning unloading.
  - Look for people wearing STAFF T-shirts to ask for information and have them help you move in.
  - Unload your vehicle as quickly as possible. Make sure someone stays with the vehicle until it is unloaded. You must unload and remove your car from the parking areas surrounding the residence halls within 30 minutes to allow others an opportunity to unload their vehicles.
  - After you unload, move your vehicle to a parking space in the McInnis Hall lots. Those lots are located on the Main area of campus near the Howard Center (the Library) and Walton Hall (Dining Commons). Everything on campus is within walking distance. Once you are parked away from the move-in area, you don’t have to move your vehicle again.
  - Park ONLY in designated spaces; do not park in travel or fire lanes and do not park others in. If you have a handicap and need assistance moving in, please call 610-341-1720 for instructions. Thank you for your patience during move-in!
• All resident students are highly encouraged to purchase renters insurance.  For a small annual investment, you can insure your personal belongings. Although thefts or damages to student property while living in the EU residence halls are rare, students need to know that the University does not assume responsibility at any time for the private property of its students, no matter the cause, for any loss sustained.  Resident students, as well as students living in rental housing not on campus, are strongly urged to purchase annual renters insurance with a reputable insurance company.  Some homeowners insurance plans cover dependents' belongings while in college, but this should be verified in writing by the homeowners policy holder.
