<p>When was the first transfer A&O session? I signed up for July 13th, but I got the impression that some other people have earlier dates?</p>
<p>I’m going to try to take the July 13th A&O session too, UW just hasn’t finished processing my enrollment payment/paperwork yet! The 13th is the first available session for transfers right?</p>
<p>^

Right.</p>
<p>I signed up for the July 14th one! Woo, excited!</p>
<p>I’m officially signed up for the July 13th A&O session- I can’t wait to register for classes! Anyone else doing that day?</p>
<p>what is the A&O? how and were do you register for that?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>July 13th for me as well!</p>
<p>I’m not until August 4th, because I need to get two measles vaccines. :-(</p>
<p>Hi everyone! I am having some trouble registering for an A&O session. I received my acceptance letter June 18th. I confirmed enrollment and paid my NSEOF June 22nd. Yesterday (the 24th) MyUW showed that my confirmation and fee has been accepted and recorded. It says I should go to the FYP page to register for an A&O session. When I try to register I get the following message: </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Im not a freshman, I set up my UWNetID in March, MyUW shows my fee has been processed, and their instructions are prompting me to register a session. I cant figure out what Im doing wrong. </p>
<p>Is anyone else having these problems? Should I just wait a few more days? Id like to reserve a place as soon as I can. Advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!</p>

<p>You need to submit your immunization records per the instructions provided…</p>
<p>pwickbec,</p>
<p>where do u check if uw got the $272?</p>
<p>bgbinc, thank you for the information. I’m still waiting for official documentation from my doctor. Hopefully it will be ready in the next few days. I was a unsure because the directions in one place didn’t seem to correspond to directions in other places. </p>
<p>nana17, for me it came up on MyFrontPage of MyUW.</p>
<p>I can’t wait either! And I am also signed up for July 13th!! I’m looking forward to speaking to an adviser- trying to see which classes I want/need is so confusing right now… >.<</p>
<p>Lillerbee- I know, the classe schedules are confusing- and the classes are filling up! Can’t wait to talk to an advisor and sign up for everything :)</p>
<p>pwickbec,</p>
<p>call the nurse and tell her that you are still waiting for proof from your doctor. she can look u up by student number and will make some changes to enable you to register for the a&o. she just helped me yesterday. she was so nice.</p>
<p>You don’t need the measles vaccination to register for the A&O. Try again. Sometimes it takes up to 48 hours after the deposit is received before you can register.</p>
<p>Also, how did everyone get in July 13? I signed up yesterday and the earliest date is Aug 3. @_@ I mean, I thought July 13 would be full by now, but is there really nothing available sooner than that?</p>
<p>for those of you who have an A&O session this week, feel free to share your experience :D</p>
<p>Hi guys-
I had my A&O last week, and I thought I would share some info with anyone wondering how it goes!</p>
<p>Basically, it is a long day full of information, tours, advising and meeting new transfers. Some parts of it can be a little tedious, but they tell you some great info about the university, the community at uw, registration, etc…</p>
<p>You arrive, and they give you a general lecture, then all the student break off into smaller groups with a student leader, who gives you more talks, takes you on various tours, bring you to advising/husky card photos, and more. There is lunch halfway through the day as well, but coffee in the morning is a good idea, believe me- and a snack for mid-morning was a lifesaver for my group, who had lecture for 3 hours straight (each group does the activities in a different order). </p>
<p>A couple tips: </p>
<p>Wear comfy shoes and be prepared for weather- even though its july, it still rains. Alot. Don’t be like me and forget a rain jacket or sweatshirt, or risk ending up soaking wet in your husky card photo…</p>
<p>They hand out some papers and a uw planner, so bringing a bag/backpack is a good idea- store your jacket in here too! And maybe a snack…</p>
<p>Make sure that your unofficial uw transcript is loaded with all your transfer credits, or make sure to bring a copy of any other unofficial transcripts, so that your advisor can see all the classes you’ve taken/what you need to take. On that note, now would be a good time to request any official transcripts from your old school, to make sure uw gets all the info it needs.</p>
<p>I would also suggest picking out (or at least looking at) all the classes you want/need for next quarter ahead of time. This way, your advisor knows exactly what you want, and can help you find other options if your first -choice classes are closed. Another good thing your advisor can help you do is figure out if your classes are in building that are too far apart- I had to edit my schedule unless I wanted t sprint across campus in 10 minutes everyday. My advisor was the one to point this out to me (which I probably wouldn’t have figured out by myself until the first day of classes), so this is a good idea to ask about that.</p>
<p>Anyway, the A&O is a bit boring, but its exciting too- you really begin to feel like a husky 
Enjoy!</p>
<p>thanks for the info:)</p>
