<p>are we supposed to have our books by the time classes start?</p>
<p>or do we wait until later</p>
<p>You move in about a week before classes start, so u can get your books then, although i doubt most professors put up booklists until classes or the week before. </p>
<p>Its not a big deal if u dont have ur books for the first couple of days.</p>
<p>It's a lot cheaper to buy online ahead of time instead of from the bookstores.</p>
<p>Unless you end up changing classes/not needing a book for a class, in which case it's a lot more expensive to buy them ahead of time...</p>
