Hendrix Housing Early Arrival Request Form - LIVE at 1pm CST, Monday, August 4th, 2025
The deadline to apply is Thursday, August 14th by 5pm. Please note that completing an application does not grant you an automatic early arrival approval. Final decisions will be sent to applicants on a rolling basis. All applicants will hear of a decision as soon as possible.
For those approved, a $25 per day fee will be charged to the student moving in before the approved move-in date set for them by the College unless they are approved by Residential Life to arrive early for official College activities. Anyone requesting an early arrival after the deadline date, will receive an additional $125 late request charge on their student account. A late request does not guarantee an early arrival approval.
Should you have any questions regarding your return to campus, please email housing@hendrix.edu or call our office at 501-450-1416.
