Questions about Res Life? Getting To Bradley

We look forward to your arrival! Residence Hall Offices will be open during the designated times. Please arrive during your move-in appointment. Move-In Appointments will be available August 1st for all students. To sign-up for a move-in appointment, visit resliving.bradley.edu on August 1st. Move-In helpers are available on Saturday, August 20 for New Student Move-In.

If you’re a residential student and are unable to return to campus during the designated move-in times Saturday, Aug. 20 or Sunday, Aug. 21, please fill out a request for move-in accommodation by August 5, 2022.

If you’re returning to the residence halls as a part of Orientation, athletic team, or approved department or organization please follow their plans and arrangements. If you are unsure if you are a part of an early approved group, please reach out to your advisor/supervisor and follow their instructions.

At the time of your check-in, you’ll be required to pay the $40 Residence Hall Association Activity fee. Payment can be made by cash (exact amount, no change available) or check (made out to RHA); you must pay this fee prior to receiving your room key.

For questions regarding the meal plan, please visit https://bradley.campusdish.com/. Residential students are required to have a meal plan. If no meal plan is selected, your meal plan will default to the 14 Per Week meal plan. You can make changes to your meal plan beginning August 19 - September 2. Log into resliving.bradley.edu, click on the ‘Change my Meal Plan’ link at the top of the page to view and change your meal plan during that time.

Getting Unloaded

As you arrive on campus, you will be given a vehicle form to complete. You can fill out the form in advance, print it, and place it on your dashboard.

When you pull up to your residence hall, we’ll have helpers ready to get you unloaded and help move your items to your room. Once your car is unloaded, find a parking spot and enjoy the rest of the day.

You’re required to follow the move-in route as many streets surrounding campus will be closed and rerouted. Bradley Police will direct traffic to keep a steady flow. Please follow their lead.

Getting the Most Out of Your Visit

Seeing and experiencing the university first-hand is the best way to familiarize yourself with all Bradley has to offer and to feel comfortable about your new home away from home. We suggest some of the following activities to help everyone feel at ease:

  • Bring your camera, take pictures!
  • Drink lots of water and get plenty of rest.
  • Take a walk around the campus and locate some of the offices and/or classrooms you will go to during the upcoming semester.
  • Go on a short outing off-campus to learn about the Peoria area.
