What to Bring to College

<p>Hi, sour12, You’re welcome. Good to know the list is helpful. :)</p>

<p>You will get your syllabi the first class, the first week of class or even later, ugh (depending on how on top of things the professor is; I had one colleague who waited until 2-3 weeks after class started to give out his syllabus). Generally, students should get the syllabus the first class. Also, some classes have syllabi up already since they are classes that are repeated. However, if you are looking online for books you should make sure the reading is updated with the right editions for required texts. Sometimes the online reading list has to be updated, so do not assume you are getting the latest list of readings.</p>

<p>My S got his Cultures & Contexts course readings, language textbooks (though one book was off, so that was not a good thing) before school started freshman year. He ordered used books online and that saved some money.</p>
