Welcome to Harding!
Move-In Day is Wednesday, Aug.13, 2025, from 8 a.m.-10 p.m. Please plan your arrival accordingly to allow ample time to settle in, meet your residence life staff and begin making your space feel like home.
August in Arkansas can be hot and humid, so we encourage you to dress comfortably, stay hydrated and take your time during the move-in process. Water stations will be available across campus to help keep you cool throughout the day.
We invite all new students and their guests to join us for a complimentary welcome dinner in The Caf at 5:30 p.m. This is a great opportunity to relax and meet other new students and families.
The evening will conclude with a presidential welcome and devotional at 7 p.m. on the steps of the Benson Auditorium. This meaningful event marks the official beginning of your Harding journey and sets the tone for your experience ahead.
If you are registered for August Bison Bound, contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions for your schedule of afternoon activities.
We can’t wait to welcome you to campus!
