Volunteer Options
Help welcome new Cardinals by monitoring and directing vehicles into and out of designated parking areas. Your guidance ensures a smooth, efficient arrival experience for students and their families.
Be a critical part of move-in success by assisting with driving instructions around each residence hall. You'll help keep traffic moving safely and prevent congestion during this busy time.
Make a big difference on move-in day! Assist students and families by physically helping move personal belongings from vehicles into their new homes. Your support eases stress and helps create a positive first impression.
Keep move-in running smoothly by monitoring and directing the flow of elevator usage inside each building. Your role will help reduce wait times and ensure an organized process for everyone moving in.
Student Volunteers: Early Move-In Opportunity!
Want to move in early and help welcome your fellow students to campus? To qualify for early move-in, you must sign up for at least three full shifts across three different days. If you do not show up for a shift, you will be charged a nightly rate for your early move-in.
The shifts listed on the sign-up form are the shifts available to work, so be sure to select the ones that fit your schedule. More details about early move-in, including your move-in date and placement, will be shared closer to August. Keep an eye on your UofL email over the summer for updates!
