<p>I'm goin. Anyone else goin? </p>
<p>Does anyone know how long it is going to be?</p>
<p>I’m going! In fact, I’m at LAX right now about to catch a flight to the bay. What’s your major solidblu?</p>
<p>It’s basically an all day thing.</p>
<p>(July 1st is where it’s at)</p>
<p>Yes your boy mortimer will be in the building (my real name’s not mortimer) polisci major! They want us to bring our trandscripts and stuff, should we bring a backpack paper and pens or will they provide that for us, i’m excited</p>
<p>July 1st represent!</p>
<p>@mortimer
Probably should come prepared just in case. Also good idea to know the courses u want and ccn # as well as couple back ups in case classes fill up.
Anything else we are supposed to bring besides transcripts?</p>
<p>definitely bring a backpack. they give u pens and paper…</p>
<p>if you did your research beforehand, you’ll probably know most of the stuff anyways so just go do what you have to do and only show up for the required stuff.</p>
<p>do we need to bring transcripts? I didn’t know that</p>
<p>For poli sci you could bring official or unofficial transcripts.</p>
<p>oh so is that poli sic specific? : |
I see nothing about transcripts, only the schedule from online orientation</p>
<hr>
<p>i’m idiot, saw it in the confirmation mail</p>
<p>Why is July 1st the most vocal CalSO group? Haha.</p>
<p>Do you think we could leave for a couple hours? If so, when would be the best time to do so? I want to go check out my apartment…</p>
<p>Seeherfly- I attended the June 1st CalSO and YES, there will be time for you to leave campus for a bit. There is a time on the schedule that they call ‘Free Time’ and you can use this to do whatever you deem necessary.</p>
<p>Just got back from CalSO.
It was great!
I actually stayed 'till the very end and went to dinner but I skipped a few activities in between because I was feeling sick.</p>
<p>Some helpful tips if you’re going to CalSO
- Figure out your classes early. At this point you should figure out which classes you’ll (probably) need to take. Even though you’ll meet w/ a major advisor, it’s smart to look up the required classes for your intended major and write down the control #'s, day&time of meeting and basically do a rough plan of your fall schedule before CalSO. It can be a bit time-consuming, but I did that before going to calso and signed up for the classes I wanted in 5 minutes for a total of 10 units. My schedule turned out to be pretty decent, some early classes but I get out in the early afternoon. </p>

<li><p>Come prepared: ID #, photo ID, CALNET ID and passphrase. If you need to turn in any forms/paperwork, you’ll get some free time during CalSO to run errands. </p></li>
<li><p>Make the best out of CalSO! Meet new people, ask questions, and have fun!</p></li>
</ol>
<p>go make your cal 1 id during your free time or break
it will help you alot</p>
