During the check-in process, the leaseholder(s) must follow these instructions:

• Step 1.  Review your assignment letter.
  • Your apartment number and check-in date are included in the assignment letter. 
• Step 2. Read more about check-in day, key pick-up and early check-in.
  • Families or roommates may pick up the apartment key(s) on the move-in date provided on the assignment letter. 
  • If pre-approved by email from the Occupancy Team reslife@okstate.edu, the check-in date may be moved to another date.
  • If you attempt to check in early, the apartment may not be available or could be in the process of being cleaned or having maintenance completed.
• Step 3.  Take your assignment letter and an identification card (ID) to the Family Resource Center.
  • Family Resource Center (FRC) at 719 N. Walnut St.
  • Families or Roommates: Pick up your welcome package, one door key and the Room Occupancy Check (ROC) form.
• Step 4. Complete and return the ROC to the FRC
  • Record the apartment's condition on the Room Occupancy Check (ROC) and return it to the Family Resource Center within five business days after moving in.
  • Roommates: After returning the completed ROC, you will receive your mail key.
  • Family leaseholder: After returning the completed ROC, you will receive the second door key and two mail keys.
• Step 5. Resident assistant (RA) to schedule a visit to your apartment
  • After returning the ROC, a resident assistant (RA), will schedule a visit within five business days to welcome you and to verify and/or add any missing details in the ROC.
  • If the visit is not scheduled within five business days, the ROC will be considered a correct and complete record of the apartment's status at the time of your move-in.
