North Park students all have different experiences while moving in. As part of North Park culture, all of your RAs and some other current students will be on the curb to greet you with sweaty t-shirts and smiling faces. Theyre just as excited about moving in as you are, and they’ll help you get all of your things into your new room.
Here are some comments from people around campus who recall the first time they moved in and want to give you an advantage they didnt have before moving in:
