This may seem like a silly question, but to those who have watched their orientation videos do they disappear from your MyStatus after watching them? I’m trying to get my daughter to watch the videos so I can watch them as well, I seem to be more excited about it then she is.
No they don’t disappear. In the ‘Done’ tab of the ‘What’s Next’ section there’s an option that says “watch the pre-orientation videos again”.
And to add to that, I think she has to click on a box after each vidoe when is has completed this task anyway.
Thanks, just waiting for her to watch them lol!!! Hopefully that will be soon so I can go in behind her and watch them as well. I know it’s silly but I’m just excited for her.
I went to UT quite a while back, and one of our orientation videos was on the proper way to do the hook em’ horns. I’ve always remembered that because I thought it was so funny.
@amottmers I hear you! I watched them once I knew it did not affect her watching them. Not a lot of useful information but entertaining. I have found great info on specific questions on the Texas Parents Facebook group. If you haven’t join you will want to.
@dansmoaustin Yes I am part of the Texas Parents Facebook group, so did you watch them before she did? I’m tempted to do that since she seems like not to care at the moment. When I graduated high school I only went to a community college and never finished so I’m excited for her, a little more then she is lol.
Yes…same boat. She is really busy having fun her last week of high school and I have moved on to college so I did. She has orientation second session so she needs to get on this stuff, including the ALEKS math stuff etc. All in good time I guess.
@dansmoaustin My daughter is going to second session as well, that’s June 20th correct? She also will be taking the ALEKS math thing as well, she is in Houston today until Monday for a ROTC trip, hopefully she will take the time to do that next week.
I watched the first video, “What to Expect at Orientation” and got that checked off. However, the other 6 all say that the video is restricted and it must be approved for me to watch it. Anyone else having that issue?
I didn’t have any problems watching them. That is odd.
@amottmers - think the second session is June 13-June 15th.
@dansmoaustin Oh ok, I couldn’t remember which session but I know the date is June 20th for my daughter.
Also didn’t have an issue watching the videos. @cc1689 - you have registered for orientation-right? I did notice a message stating you would not be able to confirm completion of the videos until you registered. I don’t know if it could be related to your problem or not.
If it is still an issue- I would call and get it straightened out.
