am i screwed if...

<p>i don't go to orientation?</p>

<p>the only session i could make was the first and it's full already. i'm going to be out of the country nearly all summer...</p>

<p>i know i can register during the fall open registration period and take the placement tests sometime later... but does anyone know if not going to orientation will REALLY hurt me? like will it be really difficult to get any of the classes i want to take? iunno. i feel uneasy not going.</p>

<p>so yea. any input? it kind of seems like a huge deal. but that could just be me.</p>

<p>I think your best bet would be to call them up asap, and ask them about it. This has to be a very common thing, people missing orientation at all, especially with international students. I think they will be honest too if you ask them and tell you if missing it hurts you.</p>

<p>i need to know this as welll</p>
