Open House

<p>Is anyone going to Open House on the 14th?</p>

<p>Would've been nice, but it's too far to travel for one day.</p>

<p>Where are you travelling from?</p>

<p>I may go, but still leaning toward Hampton.</p>

<p>South Florida</p>

<p>I'm from Central VA (about an hour and a half from Howard) and the traffic towards D.C. is crazy in the morning, so I'm going to have to leave extra early.</p>

<p>tell me how it is and all...wich i could go but thats just to many trips for denver...is anyone going to pre-orienttion, i mih if i get a discount ticket</p>

<p>Everyone keeps talking about Pre-Orientation. I didn't get or hear anything about Pre-Orientation and I'm STILL waiting on my financial aid package. I called and they weren't answering.</p>

<p>I'm going to go to pre-orientation if I decide to go to Howard. Right now I'm debating over Howard vs. Duke, but I'm still waiting on financial aid to make my final decision.</p>

<p>Did anyone get information for pre-orientation? Dates, times??</p>

<p>^^No! It seems everyone else got Pre-Orientation info. If I do go, it has to be the May one, because I graduate around the same time as the June one. Can someone tell which forms to send in to Howard for Financial Aid, they say I am missing stuff. I don't know which forms to download.</p>

<p>Nevermind..I was selected for verification. I have a feeling they did this to me because I am black! Ugh......</p>

<p>LOL... they got you too. I'm assuming that you already know what forms you need to send in. </p>

<p>Also, you can download the registration form for Pre-Orientation offline, I can post the link if you all need it.</p>

<p>lol, if i go im going on june 8, cause i graduate june 1</p>

<p>That's no fair. No one I know is able to go to the May one. I'm going to be all alone. Yupp, I got an email (YES AN ACTUAL EMAIL LOL) stating which forms I needed. At the bottom it says, "Fax them to us immediately."</p>

<p>My question is when were they going to bother to tell me? I had to bug them and boom, "you're application was selected for verification."</p>

<p>I have not been told aabout pre-orientation. Is this different from Open House?</p>

<p>^^Very different. You like spend the night and get tours and stuff and take placement tests or w/e. I only read one girl's experience from last year and it seemed like she had a lot of fun.</p>

<p>If I do go to Pre-Orientation, I'm going to the one in June. The May one is right after my GRADUATION (May 20), and it'll be too much going on in that time frame.</p>

<p>i'm doing pre-orientation in June because i still have school. May 26th = last day and May 30th = graduation. I am going to the April 14th Open House..</p>

<p>Weird, i got the pre-o packet a while ago.. i am not sure why you didn't MrSoc. </p>

<p>Financial Aid packet ha, thats funny... like i am going to get that anytime soon... (actually i got a letter saying they needed some additional forms.) </p>

<p>Kyra, i applied and was accepted to Hampton plus my cousin went there, its beautiful, i just don't like rural areas.</p>

<p>Hampton, I've visited twice. Loved it, but Hampton City is just not for me. So you're going to Open House DefiantRose, let's make sure we see one another. :-) </p>

<p>About the financial aid letter, I got it too, like a week after I had already called and sent everything in. </p>

<p>What's everyone doing this summer? I don't think I want to be in this stupid town anymore, so I'm trying to find a way to GET AWAY but also find a job.</p>

<p>This summer I plan to do... nothing. I know it's a shame, but I feel that after 12 years of schooling, summer courses, camps, and conventions, I owe it to myself to have a summer where I can just sit back and RELAX.</p>

<p>Sure Mr_socrates06 lol. </p>

<p>I am working this summer trying to save up some money so that i wont spend my parents money, trying that independant thing. </p>

<p>Hampton is not for me either, i am a city girl lost in the county so the whole County thing in VA wasn't the thing foor me. </p>

<p>I feel you TigerPride, i wish i could get paid for doing nothing this summer lol but i am going to take like a week off to just relax, my last day of work is August 1st so i can relax then.</p>
