✔️ Review UTC Housing’s list of approved and prohibited items.
✔️ Coordinate with roommates to avoid bringing duplicates.
✔️ Pack the essentials, but try not to overpack.
✔️ Leave a little extra space for the things they’ll collect throughout the year!

MyMocsPASS (Parent Access to Student Systems) allows UTC students to grant family members or other designated individuals access to select student information and communication with specific university departments. Many students choose to provide access so family members can view grades, financial aid information, or account statements through MyMocsNet. To learn how your student can set up MyMocsPASS, visit utc.edu/mymocspass.

Every semester, students at UTC purchase textbooks and course materials for their classes. Beginning this fall, they will have a new option designed to simplify the process and help reduce costs.

Starting Monday, July 27, the MocsBooks Total Access Program will offer UTC undergraduate students a simpler, potentially more budget-friendly option for buying their textbooks and materials.

Students will be automatically enrolled in the program and will receive an email 30 days before the start of the semester. The email will include the courses they are enrolled in, what the program covers and an estimate of how much they could save each semester.
