<p>As the title says, do you have to be there for the whole event? I'd love to attend Dimension, but I don't want to miss half a week of school... that may be bad for me...</p>
<p>You can go for as long or as little as you like.</p>
<p>I see... thanks! Is it better to attend all four days? Do we do drastically different things each day? I'm so excited...</p>
<p>Admissions office told me the first official event is 6:00 PM on Wednesday (a welcome barbeque); Saturday is pick-up. So I really think it's just mainly Thursday and Friday. You could probably skip Wednesday, although you might not WANT to. Leave school an hour early and you'll be fine. (You're in CT, right??)</p>
<p>The official schedule for all four days is posted [url="<a href="http://2011.dartmouth.edu/visiting/dimensionsofdartmouth/dschedule/%22%5Dhere%5B/url">http://2011.dartmouth.edu/visiting/dimensionsofdartmouth/dschedule/"]here[/url</a>]. I'll probably attend the first two days (Wednesday and Thursday) because I'd also like to attend Wellesley's Spring Open Campus (Thursday to Friday) before making my decision.</p>
<p>edit: I just realized you have to sign in to see the schedule; after you get to the Class of '11 page, click on "Visiting" and then "Dimensions of Dartmouth."</p>
<p>I reccomend staying for as long as you are available. If you have the time, go all four days. If not, dont worry you wont miss too much, but overall its a great time.</p>
