International Student pre-orientation, Aug 15-18

<p>Anybody going? Is it worth going?</p>

<p>i saw it too in the case for Cornell. i think i'm going but don't know whether it's worth going. Any comments?</p>

<p>Are either of your parents acompanying you during this orientation period? If so, you would have to find additonal accomodation for this pre-orientation period, which can be difficult in Ithaca.</p>

<p>i wanna go, but i dont think the dorms are open then, right? i dont know where i would stay.:(</p>

<p>oh yea but my parents wont be coming.</p>

<p>The dorms will be open then. If you look at the brochure on it in the "Case for Cornell" booklet, the very first activity is "check-in to resident halls." I believe this allows students to get set-up earlier and accustomed to their housing environment. Although I may be wrong.</p>

<p>Any current students attended this program in previous years?</p>

<p>In the brochure there is also a line that says: "Participants will be allowed to move into their on-campus housing early, free of charge," which means we can stay at the dorm if alone. I'm not accompanying my parents so it's okay for me. I think u have to find additional accomodation if u ARE with ur parents thou. :)</p>

<p>oh i missed that. oops.</p>

<p>does anyone know if we can store some of our stuff over the summer? i live in korea (but go to school in the states (a boarding school)) and i dont wanna bring all of my stuff back home and then back to cornell again. do you know if they have a storage place somewhere?</p>

<p>misty, i'm in the same situation as you. I amd from thailand, but I go to a boarding school in CT, and am looking for a storage during the summer.</p>

<p>if you can find the solution, please let me know too, k.</p>
