Our Important Dates
Juggling social life, academics, and extracurricular activities takes planning, and effectively managing important dates and deadlines is key to success. Keep in mind the important dates and deadlines for Housing & Residential Education because they are tied to important processes, like housing applications, move-in days, and hall closings. Avoid the stress of last-minute planning and ensure adequate time to meet needs by keeping these dates in mind.
For DU's official calendars, dates, and deadlines visit Calendar & Deadlines.
