<p>i was registering my A&O session and came across, General Interest Advising Session. the last day of that General Interest Advising Session is August 31. i thought UW starts on sept 27? am i wrong? i’m coming from oversea and i don’t know if i can stay in my dorm for almost 1 month! does this mean i have to find a place in seattle and wait till school starts? is General Interest Advising Session required? what should i do?</p>

<p>I faced this problem too. But here is how I solved it.
Our classes starts from 27th sept.
You must have received the welcome packet, and if you read it it says that A&O for internationals is on 18th sept during the international welcome week which starts from 14th sept.</p>

<p>Yes, the last date shown on the online registration is 31st august.
So all internationals need to call FYP and they will register you on 18th september.</p>

<p>you can get the phone number of FYP from their website:
<a href=“http://depts.washington.edu/fyp[/url]”>http://depts.washington.edu/fyp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>hope this helps</p>

<p>Yep mine is July 6-7. Did you register for the Health Sciences interest? I have to get there a day early since I am coming from AK</p>

<p>I am an international so the only date available to us is september 18 for A&O.
When does everybody plan to be in Seattle, I mean by which date??</p>

<p>hey laura… yea im doing the health sciences one too n gettin there early cuz im flying in from NJ… n i guess i have to take placement exams? fuuun =/…lol</p>

<p>Im also an international… i am concerned though about when the dorms open… should i find a place to stay… i saw something about early arrival but i dont really get it… What are other internationals doing? im probobly arriving around the 10th… should i just find a place to stay until classes start?</p>

10

<p>im arriving on the 12th.
international welcome week starts from 14th. my advising is on the 18th. The dorms actually open on 20-21 but i talked to the university and they said they can provide temp housing to internationals…</p>
