Preview Dates?

<p>Does anyone know what difference it makes what session you sign up for? I just signed up and the closest session open is July 11th-12th. I'm just worried I might get screwed over on classes. Can anyone ease my stress?</p>

<p>Yup....The later you join...the less choice you have of choosing your class times. Im going the first date possible....June 17-18. :D</p>

<p>sorry lansing that is incorrect. uf reserves an equal amount of core class seats for preview dates (this is officially stated on the site). so doesnt matter.</p>

<p>if that were true, we summer B kids would end up cluster f**** fall because we'd have the option for early registration through ISIS in the summer</p>

<p>Yea, Ruo is right. I went to the very last preview and got into all the classes I want. However, if you are planning to take summer courses, you have to have gone to a preview before classes start.</p>

<p>yup exactly. im doing summer and my preview date is may 17-18th and move in date is june 27th so you get early registration</p>

<p>Like others has said, there is a equal disbursement of available classes. The only matter is when you actually schedule your classes. If you are one of the first of that day to see the academic advisor you have a great chance of getting a more popular and/or limited seat in a class. If you're the last for the day, your chances decreases.</p>

<p>Do you need to make an appointment to see the advisor before orientation?</p>

<p>They, (who, I dont know) assigns it. You will find out your time day 2, when you actually see your advisor</p>

<p>Thanks for the info. I feel a lot better about it now. How do you insure you are one of the first on your preview day to register? Do you have to come early and wait in line or are you randomly assigned a time slot?</p>

<p>You are assigned an advisor randomly. Everyone in your preview session will be doing the same thing with other advisors. They not only reserve spaces per DATE but by groups. So just because your the last person of the day to register does not mean that you won't get one of the seats reserved for your preview date</p>

<p>hey how do i change my preview date. i registered for one.....but never paid for it. but i need to change the date now and i can't seem to figure how to operate the UF network.</p>
