<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Is it better to sign up for the first possible orientation date offered? I heard that is when you sign up for classes, so do you guys think i will be at an advantage for getting into classes if i go to the first offered orientation date? I must get into O-Chem!!</p>
<p>Also, I am looking for roommates.
I am a 21 year old male, Transferring junior as a BioChem major.</p>
<p>Thanks
<p>Nope, signing up for an earlier date doesn’t give you an advantage. On the MyAdmissions page it says:</p>
<p>“All students who attend Orientation will have their first opportunity to register for Fall Quarter courses during the program. Students who attend earlier Orientation sessions are not advantaged in course registration over students who attend a later session. The university works with the academic colleges to run a seat release system which reserves open spaces in courses and releases a portion of open seats during each Orientation session to help create equality in course registration over the summer.”</p>
<p>Awesome, Thank you!</p>
