My friend is saying that we chose them @ orientation?

Or do we chose them online?

Thanks :S

All course selection is done online.

If you are attending an academic advising session you will be doing it in a lab at school.

Hey lorend thanks for the response!

Would it be possible for me to pick my courses earlier all by myself at home so that I can get the dates/profs that I want?

I am going to be in engineering and my academic advising session in July 2nd, and SOLAR opens on July 2nd as well.

EDIT: What you said is confusing because there were two academic advising sessions (June 25 & 27) before SOLAR opened for all engineering students.
So did they already choose their courses earlier then everyone else?

Nope, because first year eng students can't log onto SOLAR before the 2nd they did a mock course selection, where they were given certain MACIDs that would function.

Yes, you can choose your courses before you come to the session. I reconmend you do that if at all possible *hint* Don't bother trying to get on at midnite. Wake up around 5AM and you'll get on right away.
