<p>What day do the dorms open and when do classes officially start?</p>

<p>This should help. :)</p>
<p>Thank you 
Too bad orientation starts before the dorms open -.-… I don’t want to have to make two international trips to Chapel Hill. The cost alone will kill me ><</p>
<p>International students could probably attend the last session if you ask ahead of time:</p>
<p>Thursday, August 18 & Friday August 19 (Make-up session reserved ONLY for those students who are unable to attend an earlier session. Please contact NSCPP for further information. 919-962-8304 or <a href=“mailto:newstudents@unc.edu”>newstudents@unc.edu</a>)</p>
<p>The last orientation session is specifically meant for internationals. You move into your regular dorm in that session (unlike the others).</p>
<p>Transfer is like that too. I’m attending the August 17th date and we’ll be able to move right in.</p>
<p>The last orientation is designed for anyone traveling more than 500 miles…most (but certainly not all) OOS students also take advantage of it.</p>
<p>Yep I’m also going to the later transfer one so I can just move in then. It’s a far trip for me, so it’s more convenient that way.</p>
