<p>I know that incoming first-years are supposed to register for classes at orientation, but what about Echols scholars? Since we register for classes first, when do we register? Would it be online prior to all the orientation sessions? Someone help me out here please :)
(For me, going to UVA to register is out of the question because I am an international student and will only be going to the registration specifically for international students a couple days before move-in in August begins.)</p>
<p>In the past you just register first from your session. They save a certain number of spots in each class for each session, so this in essence is the same as registering first. I’m sure the same will be true of the international session you will attend.</p>
<p>I went to an echols-only orientation session, so I’m not sure how this process worked. The school reserves some spaces in every class section for each orientation session, so possibly they reserve extra spaces for the Echols sessions? I’m not completely sure. Regardless, I had no trouble getting the classes I wanted during my session.</p>
