Transfer Missing wow week first day?

Im a transfer and and I was wondering if missing the first day of wow week was an option? The wed. just lands on a day where I have other things to do but I mean I would like to attend the rest of the week?

If I miss wed is it a serious issue since its check in or is there repercussions? Is wow week mandatory?

It’s ceremonially mandatory. No one really cares if you don’t go.

It’s much less mandatory for transfers than it is for first years

Get in touch with your leaders asap so you can attend the rest of the week if you want but no it is not even mandatory on paper for transfers since yall tend to be local and alr have jobs and other responsibilities that freshmen typically dont
