Yes, but you're not allowed overnight guests during WW.

However, try and keep the ppl who come with you to a minimum. The larger your entourage, the less space you will have in your room (especially if you have a roommate with a large entourage). Because so many people are moving in, the hallways get crowded...

Aaaand you have to take the stairs because the elevator is full of people's boxes...something else to keep in mind.

haha well the welcome week reps sing to you on your way from the car to the building and they basically carry everything in for you

your parents can come hep move in things and the reps make moving in a very nice transition i found

you shouldnt have a problem fitting a suitcase in a les price rooms, but the more space you have the better, if its not necessary to keep it there, just bring it over again when you move out in april!

It doesn't matter...if you bring it at move-in, you'll have it immediately and the reps will move it up for you

Agni says thanks to nerual for this post.

You might as well bring it on move-in day. The reps will bring it up so you don't have to do any work except move it into your room.

Edit: Plus it takes some time for your fridge to get cold depending on how you transport it and how much movement there is during transportation.
