<p>So on my UCLA Orientation confirmation (101), it says my arrival time and check in time is at 8 am. </p>

<p>I don't know if it's the same for everyone, and I could only schedule a flight that would get me to UCLA at around no later than 10 or 11, both before noon. </p>

<p>I checked on the orientation website and it said I should be there no later than 5 pm, so is it okay if I arrive some hours later than my check in time?</p>

<p>Yah it is fine, but you will be missing meeting your group and a few meetings. You could arrive the night before and stay over for a fee and be there for the beginning, but it is up to you.</p>

<p>where do we meet to check in?</p>

<p>It’s probably too late to schedule an early arrival, but yeah, arriving a couple hours late should be okay. </p>

<p>For check in:

  • if you’re arriving on time, check in is near Covel, outside of Sproul Hall. If you’re driving, you’ll park in Lot 3, then a shuttle will take you over to where you need to check in.
  • if you’re arriving late, come to the Orientation Office (technically called the New Student and Transitions Program) in 201 Covel Commons, and someone there can help you.

<p>thanks @UCLA2014.
It says the bed sheet and pillow will be provided to us. So we need to bring our own blanket?</p>

<p>Housing provides a sort of thin blanket, but you’re welcome to bring your own if you want. There’s a thermostat in your room though, so you could just use that, and nights in LA aren’t too cold in the first place.</p>
