<p>the UW page said
"You have not yet been assigned an Advising and Orientation session. If you have already submitted a request you should receive a confirmation in the mail soon. If you have not already done so, you should request a session as soon as possible."</p>

<p>what is it exactly?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>It sounds like you’ve already confirmed enrollment. A&O is essentially Freshmen orientation, AKA the ‘What the hell do I do now to become a student?’ seminar.</p>
