<p>my mom has to fly out on a business trip the same day, and she wants to kno if admit day is really worth it, or if we can just go to freshman orientation instead. im already set on going to sd. will i be missing anything if i go to orientation instead of admit day?</p>
<p>No, you won't be missing much, unless you're undeclared or thinking about switching majors. The departments like to promote themselves at admit day, but at orientation they rarely bother.</p>
