Official Dates

This year, Boiler Gold Rush will be happening from August 16-20, 2022. If you are living in University Residences on-campus housing, move-in will begin the Sunday before BGR.

BGRi move-in will take place on August 12 and BGR move-in will take place August 14-16. If you are living in University Residences and have questions about their move-in process, please visit the University Residences website.
