Preview vs. Orientation

<p>Do most kids attend both? I know orientation is mandatory while preview does not seem to be.</p>

<p>We live in new york, so we are just trying to figure out if its best to have our son attend both.</p>

<p>has anyone attended both? would you recommend it?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Parent2Noles highly recommends preview. We did not go to preview and we felt we got all the information we needed from orientation. I did attend the family orientation which is probably just a way to keep the parents out of the kids hair but I really did learn a lot about FSU and did enjoy the programs preparing me for what to expect as my student went off to college.</p>

<p>As always.... Thanks Cybermom</p>

<p>At orientation you meet with your adviser and register for classes but you can keep modifying your Fall schedule throughout the summer until it is "perfect".</p>

<p>D signed in but there was nothing yet re: signing up for orientation. Does anyone know the dates? We have dates for preview but not orientation. D is summer also.</p>

<p>I don't think you can sign up for orientation yet. They are still doing Spring 2008 orientation I would imagine.</p>

<p>There will be two-day sessions in May and June.</p>

<p>Was just hoping for the dates at this point. I'd like to go, but the more notice we have the better.</p>

<p>Well here is the link to register but it might not be set up yet.</p>

<p>fsu.edu</a> | orientation registration</p>

<p>Yes, she signed in here, but nothing really there yet. Nothing live and no dates. Thanks. We'll keep watching. Apparently, the dates are in the packet that comes by mail.</p>

<p>Well from last year, summer orientation was throughout the month of may and then one on july 18.</p>

<p>While fall orientation was the month of june and one on august 18.</p>

<p>orientation last 2 days, and they will have about 3 orientations per week.</p>
