LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The University of Kentucky announced plans for students to move onto campus this fall with social distancing in mind.

Move-in is scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 8, through Sunday, Aug. 16. Students will be required to schedule a move-in appointment through the Housing Portal.

Officials hope that the schedule spread out arrivals throughout the day. Students will be limited to two guests during the move-in process.

Everyone helping with the move-in will be required to wear a face mask. Once students get to their rooms, the university will provide them with a wellness kit, which includes a mask, hand sanitizer and a thermometer to use on a daily basis on campus.

Classes are scheduled to begin on Aug. 17. For additional information. click here.Ā
