Hi All. Just looking for some thoughts on the Global Entry Program from those who have been through it or know someone who has. My daughter has concerns about missing the fall freshman experience and integrating back into campus in the spring. I did see one very negative blog on the issue - but am looking to hear of others’ experiences. Thanks.
My son did the Global Entry Semester, and did not have any problems integrating back into campus (at least he never mentioned any issues).
However I understand that they have dropped the IcedCOOT program that they used to have for new students joining the campus in January, and now have the GES students do a version of the regular COOT (or some kind of orientation in Waterville) before they go abroad (?).
My son’s roommate did the Global Entry – worked perfectly since his first roommate left after the first semester. He seemed to have no problems adjusting, and they actually roomed together again this year.
