Drop and Go Program

What is Drop and Go and how does it work?

The Drop and Go program is an optional pre-arrival experience for first-year students to get a head start on moving into their residence hall. This program complements Widener’s formal move-in days on August 18 and  19. During this time, only bulk items, large, packed boxes, and cumbersome items can be dropped off. Students and families are not permitted to stay and will not officially move into their residence hall until August 18 or 19. 

Deadline to register is Friday, August 1 at 5:00 PM.

Here’s how Drop and Go works:

• Reserve a drop off date and a 30-minute timeslot.
• During that time you will check-in, drive to your designated parking area, and drop off bulk items in your room.  
• Our team of volunteers will provide a large moving bins to assist you  
• Rooms will be opened by Student Living staff members upon your arrival. Room keys will not be distributed during this process.
• Rooms will be locked by Student Living staff immediately as you leave and will remain locked until your arrival on August 18 or 19.
• All participants must depart campus at the end of their 30-minute window
