off campus students do not go to the orientation. Just pick up your ID at check-in and then go to class when it begins!
Jevon
12:26
do people living off campus have to attend orientation on July 2nd or can we just collect our ID and attend class on 3rd (when course begins)
Meg Palladino
12:25
There are plenty of spaces on campus to meet.  Perhaps there is a space in the library or a classroom that would work.  Your residential counselor can assist with this when you arrive.

I regularly take online English lessons called Cambly. Are there any places in the dorms or on campus where we can have such meetings, as it may be disruptive to my roommates in my dorm room. Maybe we could do it on a bench outside on campus.
AvatarKathy Trputec

We don't want you to miss any class! Attending class is required and missing class can affect your grade. Missing one class can be like missing a whole week due to the compressed nature of our courses and programs. If you are unwell, let us know.
