<p>For freshmen who will be coming next fall:
The application is now up for Pre New Student Week programs for next fall. I think you have till July 1st to apply. Check out the link below.
These are all amazing trips, so I highly reccommend them. I went on PWild and absolutely loved it, even with no prior hiking experience.</p>
<p>if someone applies for one of these programs, are they allowed to change their minds about participating (or is there a certain date by which they'd have to do so..)?</p>
<p>There's just one application, basically so that you can apply to multiple ones if you want to... once you click on the application, it will give you instructions... you write some brief stuff on why you want to do each of your top two choices.</p>
<p>Still plenty of time to apply guys! Don't miss out ... one of the overlooked parts about these programs is that all your friends on the semester system will already be at school... don't waste your time on the couch while everyone else is off having fun!</p>
<p>I recommend FUP, you get to see pretty much every area of chicago, and if you're the slightest bit interested in volunteering it gives you huge networking skills, everyone thats involved with it ends up being involved with NCDC, Oasis, or ASB(3 biggest volunteer organizations at NU) The counselors are also heavily involved which could give you an edge.</p>
<p>Applications are due on July 1st! Don't end up sitting at home while everyone else is getting a head start on making friends in college! Let me know if you guys have questions about applying</p>
<p>Still plenty of spots available... you guys should all apply for one of the programs. The applications are really simple and don't take any time at all... see y'all in the fall!</p>
