Questions about IU orientation and classes

<p>First off, I'm new to this site so please bear with me :)</p>

<p>I will be attending Indiana University in the fall as a direct admit freshman to Kelley. I have a few questions that I am hoping people know the answers to.</p>

<p>I was assigned housing in McNutt, which I am very excited about. I was assigned to the "McNutt Academic Community". Indiana's website is very vague about academic communities so I really have little clue what that is and how it differs from regular McNutt housing. I am a serious student but I want to be able to party and have fun. </p>

<p>I am currently filling out my academic planning worksheet in preparation for orientation. I want to do something in business but I have not yet decided on a major. I want to explore my options in business and incorporate my interests. My current plan for first semester is something like this:</p>

<p>BUS-W 212 Explore Entrepreneurship (3 cr)
BUS-K 204 The Computer in Business Honors (3 cr)
ECON-E 201 Intro to Microeconomics (3 cr)
PSY-P 101 Introductory Psychology (3)</p>

<p>That leaves me with 12 credits so I am trying to choose between the following for my last class:</p>

<p>Digital Imagery for Non-majors (3 cr)
Intro to Midi/Computer Music (3 cr)
Intro to Programming (3 cr)
Contemporary Political Topics (3 cr)</p>

<p>The classes above are based on my interests outside of business. I would like some feedback about my plans prior to orientation. I know that my advisors will be able to help me but I have heard they are not the best. I want to have a solid idea of what classes I should take before orientation. </p>

<p>I am open to any feedback. Is this a manageable course load? Will I be able to pull off mostly A's? Are there other classes I should be taking instead as a freshman? I will appreciate any help that you can give me.</p>

<p>Thank you in advance.</p>

<p>Why are you taking explore entrepreneurship? As far as the other classes, they look good. E201 is tough to do well in so you need to work harder for your grade in that class. And with your last class, I would choose one you’re interested in that would provide a gen Ed credit you need. Are any of them a&h credits?</p>
