<p>When is the RSVP?? I have sadly misplaced my folder and have subsequently destroyed my room in the search for it. I really hope it hasn't passed. Oh, also, does anyone know what to expect?</p>
<p>The website is <a href="http://www.wellesley.edu/admission/SOC%5B/url%5D">www.wellesley.edu/admission/SOC</a>. It has a lot of information on there, including a schedule, and you can register.</p>

<p>Hopefully, a better situation than the last Open Campus. Last year, a water main broke and we had no water (at all) for more than twelve hours. I had two propsies with me, that night, and ... it was awkward.</p>
<p>Other than that, expect to have a lot of people talking to you all at once. There's a big concert/performance thing every year, if you're interested in learning about the orchestra, choir, a capella groups, music department groups, and such.</p>
<p>My main advice about Open Campus is not to be intimidated by lunch the first day. If they do it the way they did last year, you will just walk into a dining hall, get lunch, and there will be designated people (probably clearly marked) who you can talk to during lunch about life at Wellesley.</p>
<p>Now, I wasn't completely clear on that, and I was so confused and overwhelmed that I ended up not eating lunch. Don't do that. There's a lot of stuff going on- you can attend as little or as much of it as you like. If you think a walk around Lake Waban will be more useful to you than a concert, then by all means, take a walk. </p>
<p>BTW, I met my roommate at SOC :).</p>
<p>that sounds great if a little overwhelming! fingers crossed all water pipes remain sturdy and full of clean water.</p>
<p>does open campus cost anything to stay overnight? i know at ucla and berkeley theres a fee to stay overnight in the dorms...</p>
<p>I don't think Wellesley pays for anything...</p>
<p>There's no fee involved, beyond travel (and Wellesley is even paying for that for some).</p>
<p>are you with your parents the entire time, or are you always separate? (I love my family, but it would be cool if this was more of an individual experience)</p>
<p>It depends on what you want to do...I'm not even bringing my parents.</p>
<p>me too!! I'm going by myself</p>
<p>yeep, i'm leaving mine home too</p>
<p><em>raises hand</em></p>
<p>meee tooooo!</p>
<p>My parents are tagging along! :) I don't mind; they are pretty cool cats (in my opinion). Although this thread does make me think that I should have a talk with them about not doing the same thing as me all day :)</p>
<p>I'm genersouly allowing one to hang out with me for one day. Then they have to leave my prescence. :P</p>
<p>i'm bringing my dad- but he's usually content to just wander around and pretend he's in college (which may be hard at wellesley :))</p>
<p>Haha..I'm so excited..I feel like I should be prepared with questions about the school and the opportunities, etc..Blah..I'll probably forget them once I get there. </p>
<p>Does anyone know which amtrak/train to take from Wellesley/near Wellesley to NJ on the 25th? Or the station/stop where the Wellesley bus will drop us off if we're taking the train?</p>
<p>I'm leaving today (for Philly, will later go to Boston)! See you all at Wellesley on Sunday! </p>
<p>Ugh, missing four days of school=lots of make up tests, homework, and screwed for APs</p>
