The Residence Hall staff will be available to help you get situated into your room. For more information on moving in to the residence halls, visit the K-State Housing and Dining website.

Some participants will find their roommates will not be taking part in the Sorority Formal Membership Recruitment process and therefore may not be moving into the residence hall quite as early. It is advised you make contact with your new roommate prior to moving in to make plans.

Parking during the week of recruitment
If you are planning on brining a car to campus, it is important that you purchase a K-State parking permit through K-State parking services on-line. If you live on-campus, your permit will be available at your residence hall when you arrive Sunday, August 15. All parking permits are good beginning Sunday, August 15. Parking on campus during the week of recruitment is no different than parking during the school year - all parking regulations must be followed.
If you live off-campus and purchase a parking permit, your permit will be available at Parking Services.
Visit the K-State Parking Services website
Order your parking permit online by logging into you ISIS account. Enter your eid and your password. Select the marketplace option and then student parking permits. To order, you need to know if you will live in the residence halls or off-campus, not an exact address or room number.
It is important to understand that you will not need a car during the week of recruitment. All participants walk or are bussed to all recruitment events. No participants are permitted to drive to any of the recruitment events.
