Is the MSU swag bag, going to be given out during move in days? I still can't believe some people have started packing already. I don't think I have all my stuff yet lol. I guess the last minute packing comes with going away to summer camp for years.

The MSU swag bag is given out during the first week or so of the year, not sure exactly what the dates are this year, Can anyone confirm this?

I haven't started packing yet either XD, I still have a ton of stuff to buy too! :(

I'm almost certain I got it on the day I moved in last year.

So do we have the option of moving ourselves in? Its not that I dont trust them with my belongings, its just that I can full well move myself in. I'll only have a few bags, a guitar, my laptop, clothes. So really it will only take me like 2-5 trips, which doesnt bother me. Also my family will be helping me move the stuff so more like 1-2 trips. To recap haha, am I allowed to move myself in providing i attein my keys first?

Having other people help you allows for the traffic to go through so that the line isn't being held up. They simple take it to your door. You'll probably have to carry your guitar with you though. If everyone stopped their car to take 1-2 trips it would be a lot crazier. Seriously, as you get out of the car, your stuff will be on it's way to your room without you even realizing it. It's a really efficient system. During Welcome Week the IRC helps with the traffic and parking and usually it goes by really fast.

You should be find moving in around the 7th.

"Although it is possible to move-in after your specified date/time, students are not permitted to move in prior to their designated move-in date/time. Please review the chart carefully. "

"Moving in late? Students planning to arrive after Friday, September 11th must notify us by submitting a Late arrival form."

Yes, classes will start during welcome week. It's only Thursday and Friday though, so classes won't be intense or anything. It'll most likely be only course outlines.

I would suggest putting the laser printer in a box with all the cables and whatnot. It's just for organization purposes and making sure you don't lose the cables (that would suck).

As for the mini fridge, if the box has handles then that would make it A LOT easier for the reps to move it to your room.
