This is not a first year course lottery, but rather a first year seminar lottery - certain courses are set aside as small discussion classes for freshmen. These are completely optional. It won’t be the end of the world if she doesn’t sign up for one because of this trip; I elected not to do one, and I’m sure others here have as well. If she really wishes to do one, you’ll want to try to make sure you can contact her in some way and then do the lottery from home after hearing what she wants to enter for.

Your daughter will be assigned an advisor and will meet with this person and her student advisor a couple days before classes begin. Before then, however, she will be asked to make a preliminary list of courses she’s interested in and submit it by a website (only the advisor will see this). This is in no way binding, however, just a way to get her to think and start to narrow down the options.
