<p>I’ll recount my orientation a few years ago: It’s hot, it’s boring, it’s generally useless. I got out of the math placement cause of Calc AP (or SAT math score…can’t remember) and lang placement cause of Spanish AP. Got my CatCard, registered for classes (had them picked out ready to go beforehand), toured campus, and went home. A lot of kids are panicky about (and during) orientation, but I remember it as being pretty straightforward since most every question I had was answered somewhere in the UA website labyrinth.</p>
<p>Just have a copy of your SAT score report, transcript, and what classes you want…and you’ll be good to go. There was inbetween tasks I think I did beforehand like setting up my NetID for email and all before orientation.</p>
<p>Regarding AP credit, it all gets added in automatically into your transcript if you sent the scores to them. Then you’ll have to contact your college administrative (not academic) advisor and say “I want spanish AP to count for tier I indv instead of SPAN 201, etc.” It’s slightly annoying to deal with, but doesn’t take more than a few days to get straightened out via email.</p>
