looking for confirmation...

<p>i'm trying to set up my email account. from what i read, you need to activate you account on my.ucsc.edu. i log in, but i don't see any links or buttons for "activate ucsc account".</p>

<p>i accepted the sir on may 1st. does it take a while for this thing to pop up (like after my transcripts are in or whatever) or is my account broken? is this happening for other transfers?</p>

<p>You probably can't activate your account until after orientation, or about August.</p>

<p>such a long wait...oh well, thanks for the info. :)</p>
