Welcome Week

<p>Hi, im a c/o13 magazine journalism major in the honors program (Banneker key), i'm also considering entering the jimenez proter writers house (i applied and was invited) </p>

<p>but my question is.What happens when we move in. whats welcome week like? will we even have a whole week? how much time will we have before classes start? anecdotes are encouraged</p>

<p>hey! i’m also an incoming freshmen. this is what others have been saying so far:</p>

<p>8/27-move in day for people in honors, gemstone, scholars</p>

<p>8/28-move in day for everyone else</p>

<p>8/31-classes start</p>

<p>i’m not really sure what activities are held on welcome week, but there might be a social gathering/ dinner type of thing.</p>

<p>ok thats not a lot of time… but thanks 4 the info</p>

<p>Now I’m just wondering when move in day is for kids doing marching band (band camp)</p>

<p>from what i can remember, marching band kids tend to move in the earliest (7-8 days before classes start or 3-4 days before people in honors and scholars) and gemstone kids attending gems camp move in next (6-7 days before classes start or 2-3 days before people in honors and scholars). everyone else moves in on the days that onestopNYC listed.</p>

<p>last year’s schedule for the new resident orientation is at <a href=“http://www.resnet.umd.edu/nro/pdfs/nroscheduleofevents_08.pdf[/url]”>http://www.resnet.umd.edu/nro/pdfs/nroscheduleofevents_08.pdf&lt;/a&gt; . i dont know how many of these activities will be at the 09 NRO, but the new student welcome and the SEE outdoor movie happen basically every year.</p>
