<p>'Kay, thanks mike :-]</p>
<p>Cleo- I got lucky.
I am majoring in Business Econ.</p>
<p>I took…
Anthropology 2
Econ 1
Math 34a (calculus)</p>
<p>My advisor told me I was lucky that I got such classes. Also, try to get various types of classes, not all math or all english, etc.</p>
<p>ur are 100% lucky davis!</p>
<p>that is the schedule of my dreams</p>
<p>except anthropology, even thought it was high on my list, was not as high as phil 4.</p>
<p>congrats tho hope u enjoy ur schedule</p>
<p>Does anyone know what the typical engineering schedule looks like?</p>
<p>Is it possible not to schedule any Friday classes?</p>
<p>DrAhumada: check out the 2009-2010 engineering announcement: <a href=“http://engineering.ucsb.edu/current_undergraduates/pdf/09-10Announce.pdf[/url]”>http://engineering.ucsb.edu/current_undergraduates/pdf/09-10Announce.pdf</a></p>
<p>It contains your “track”, meaning your engineering schedule for the next 4 years laid out for you.</p>
<p>overhighschool: yes, you can, depending on your desired schedule. I had no Friday classes the last two quarters.</p>
<p>Which classes would be best to pick if my major is pre-psychology? Any tips or websites would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>if i said i was majoring in history, but want to do pre-biology can i still sign up for chem 1a/1al? it says that chem 1a is saved for certain science majors and i really need to take it.</p>
<p>What programs are worth going? I know you’re required to go to all the academic advising and the course registration, but what else should I go to? My dad and sister aren’t going, so I’d like to only go to the things worth going to in order to spend time with them.</p>
<p>Hi, I just went yesterday. The first thing you can do when you get there is take a morning tour, where you can tour the general campus, the UCen, Santa Rosa Res Hall, or Davidson Library… I did not do any of these, because I’ve already seen enough of the campus to not be interested. However, if you want, you can go to one.</p>
<p>Morning Tours- I didn’t go, but it was because I already knew the campus rather well to not be interested. However, many people did take these tours so you can if you’d like. You get to be with your parents for this.</p>
<p>Walk to the Welcome Assembly- Just a long walk. Like, really long. With your parents in this.</p>
<p>Welcome Assembly- Honestly, really really boring. However you meet your advisor after this, so you should go with everyone else. (not so boring) With parents in this.</p>
<p>Academic Advising I - Yes, essentially required. However, if your advisor is good (I think they all are), this shouldn’t be boring at all. No parents for you :(</p>
<p>1:35 special tours - There is the Engineering Tour/College of Creative Studies Tour/EOP tour. I went to the Engineering Tour, and I thought it was worth it by far. Not too sure about the other two. If you do these, you can go with your parents, (and these are not mandatory I think.)</p>
<p>Academic Advising II- Required, no parents.</p>
<p>Making the most of Your First Year Tour: I actually didn’t go to this one (because I went back to my dorm and forgot it was going on. However my friends tell me it was pretty interesting, so this, is up to you. No parents.</p>
<p>Day 2:</p>
<p>Student Life Workshops: Not too sure if its mandatory, no parents… I didn’t particularly like this. It was a switchoff where you did awareness activities related to student life (drinking/sex/social relationships/etc…) You previously have to meet up with your advisor in the patio before you do this, so I would just do it.</p>
<p>Faculty Lecture: Not mandatory, no parents. I really liked this one. The speaker was humorous, interesting, and a lot of common confusion about college vs high school is cleared up if you go to this. I’d go if I were you.</p>
<p>11:45 Co-Curricular Workshops: Here you get to pick a bunch of workshops if you’d like to go to one:
Getting Involved at UCSB
Education Abroad Program
Environmental Issues and Involvement at UCSB
Greek Life
KCSB (UCSB’s Radio Station)
Physical Activities, Recreation, Intramurals and Club Sports (I went to this one!)
Get to know the Nexus (Student Publications)</p>
<p>Just pick one. I went to the Recreation and sports one, and I really enjoyed it. I’m clueless about the rest though.</p>
<p>Advising Session III: Mandatory, no parents.</p>
<p>Go Home: Mandatory, with parents.</p>
<p>Cant believe you missed the play (the thing after academic session 2).</p>
<p>the play was very amateurish. i didnt think it was good at all.</p>
<p>can you take your laptops?
is it needed at all? if so, is there wireless?</p>
<p>don’t know if it’s true or not, but my advisor said that we’re not allowed to use the ethernet/wireless/internet there at orientation since we’re actually not “residents” at UCSB yet. most people i know did not bring their laptops. you plan out your schedule during the first day in a booklet and then do the actual registration the 2nd day</p>
<p>you aren’t allowed to bring a laptop. the advisors are even supposed to confiscate cell phones, but they seem to be more lax about this rule</p>
<p>Yeah. The adviser’s take away cell phone’s during the start of registration. However, in my group during registration, two people left to their friends rooms that were living at ucsb and did their registration there thus getting the classes they wanted. When they came back to tell the adviser what they had done, he just told them to go get their schedules printed out at the office and received no penalty. </p>
<p>As for the internet usage. There is available open wifi around Manzanita village but it will be shut down due to registration. For my group, there was no warning for usage of wifi.</p>
<p>i didnt feel like taking it anyways, so i guess it works.
and im a pre-bio major so i’m not that picky about my classes either (gonna get the boring old ge science classes i bet)… just dont want early morning classes. chem at 8 am would kill me.</p>
