| they give you a blanket. if you don't want to use that you can bring a sleeping bag.
bring whatever you need for three days... study material for placement tests if you want... laptop (and lock) if you want it... and i very much second the good shoes thing. carpe noctem + flip flops = bad idea! | |

| From the good folks at UCLA Orientation:
"Items You Should Have at Orientation
All official records you have received from UCLA, including this confirmation
A photo ID (e.g., a driver's license or student identification card)
Your BruinCard - your student ID for UCLA (if you sent in a photo and had your BruinCard mailed back to you)
Comfortable clothes and shoes, a pen, a #2 pencil
Money (to pay for parking and/or any souvenirs)
Copies of transcripts, test score results and catalogs from any post-high school institutions (to assist in planning your coursework for the Fall)
Backpack or bag to carry items on campus
First-year students only: toiletries, a towel, an alarm clock (sheets and a pillow will be provided)" | |

| The blanket they have is rather thin and for some reason, Rieber Terrace gets super cold in the summer. | |

| check class times to make your schedule... if you have it figured out and is sure that there are spots open (aka you don't need your laptop to check if there are spots open) then you don't really need it... | |
