Hi guys I am new here. I made an account just to ask about orientation because I got very confused.
So here is some background information. I am a newly-enrolled USC Viterbi undergraduate entering in fall 2015. I am a US citizen living in Asia at the moment. I have submitted my enrollment deposit and committed to enrolling.
Like I said, I have some orientation questions. First of all, am I supposed to have gotten an email about orientation by now? When I enrolled the webpage said a welcome email about orientation was to be sent to me within 5-7 days. It has been 2 weeks since then and I have still received nothing. I found a link to register for orientation on the Office of Orientation Programs website but I don’t know if it is right one to use: https://esdweb.esd.usc.edu/orientationevents Can someone verify that this is correct?
Another issue I had was that on the aforementioned website I don’t see the international students on-campus orientation that is supposed to be right before the start of the semester. I would really like to attend this one because it is a lot more convenient for me but for some reason it is not on there (not even in the waitlist, I checked). It might be because I am a US citizen, but I’m not really sure. How do I sign up for the international on-campus orientation, if it is even possible?
I contacted the Office of Orientation Programs and the Office of Undergraduate Admissions regarding these issues a few days ago, and I have yet to receive a reply.
So yeah… has anyone signed up for orientation yet? Would really appreciate some help because I am seriously confused right now. Thanks.
