Move-In 2025 Posted Wednesday, August 27, 2025 @ 11:32 AM Welcoming new and returning Knights is more than a logistical task. It is a defining moment in the UCF experience that shapes first impressions, builds community, and sets the tone for the year ahead. Move-In is a large-scale, collaborative effort. Thanks to the dedication of teams across campus, this year’s experience was smooth, welcoming, and student-centered. The feedback from students and families reflects that success. Key highlights from this year include: Nearly 8,000 residential students moved in 20,000 to 25,000 people in residential areas between August 9 and 16 Around 13,000 vehicles passed through unloading zones Welcome programs averaged 200 student attendees We especially recognize UCF Facilities’ Lock Shop and Key Services for their outstanding support: Over 240 support calls handled between August 14 and 17 119 of 120 assigned work orders completed during that time Move-In survey feedback was overwhelmingly positive. A few representative quotes include: “UCF made the process a lot less daunting. Thank you.” “I was impressed by how smoothly it was operated.” “We felt prepared, and the signage was incredibly helpful.” Special thanks to these offices for their essential contributions: UCF Police Department UCF Parking Services UCF Card Services UCF Facilities and Housekeeping Key Services Emergency Operations Center Team We also thank university leadership for being present to support students and staff. Their involvement speaks volumes about our collective commitment to student success. To everyone who helped prepare, guide, and welcome our students: THANK YOU!
