Move-in Weekend / Scarlet Knight Days
Information for the 2010 Scarlet Knight Days and Move-In will be posted in the coming months.
Since Rutgers University has so much to offer, it is not possible to cover everything during Summer Orientation. Look for additional New Student Orientation programs and events during Scarlet Knight Days (which occur between August 29 and September 18) and throughout the fall semester.
