For many, "Drop and Go" has "Come and Gone" and Return Day is almost here! In the first few days you are here, residents will be asked to complete a Shared Living Agreement creating norms with their roommates (and house/suite/apartment mates). Here are some helpful things to consider as you prepare for those conversations.

With Drop and Go just one day away here are some items you should not bring to the car.

For more information, see the Full Move-in Guide linked in our Bio.

Continuing our profiles of first-year buildings, let us introduce three of our larger first-year communities: Cromwell, Travers, and Wolfe. Travers () and Wolfe () are two identical towers connected by a link area that includes a large air-conditioned programming space, a late-night dining hall, and professional staff offices. These are two of the most iconic buildings at TCNJ.

Cromwell Hall () is a suite-style building that provides students with their own bathroom shared with only their suitemates. The benefit of sharing this space with so few people also comes with the responsibility to maintain and clean the bathroom.
