What to Bring When You Move InGetting ready to move into your room at HPU is one of the most exciting times of the year. It's fun to reflect your personality and create a relaxing haven in the midst of campus. Keep in mind that you are free to customize your space and that decorating possibilities are endless as long as you remember to abide by some basic guidelines. Residence Life has put together a list of things that will help you organize for your move-in to campus, including a list of items that are not allowed and should be left at home. Be sure to get in touch with your roommate(s) and suitmates to coordinate items that can be shared (such as rugs, appliances, decor.) Before you move in you can mail packages to arrive no earlier than 2 weeks before the check-in date. If packages arrive more than 2 weeks before the term starts, they will be returned to sender.

Soit vous avez la mauvaise adresse ou la ressource a étéMoving to a new place like St. Maarten and deciding what to pack from home can be a headache, especially if you are not sure whether you should buy something on the island when you get here or bring it from home. Luckily in St. Maarten, you can pretty much find most things you need. For those of you who are about to move down to the island, fellow AUC med student (and orientation advisor) Brittany Mott has graciously looked up and provided the price of various supplies from Cost-U-Less and ACE Hardware. Here I have posted her guide below. Hopefully this post will give many of you all a better idea of what to expect. Thanks Brittany for this information!
