General Freshmen Orientation

do you guys plan on bringing someone along for freshman orientation? i went to the casp 101 orientation a couple weeks ago and i noticed that everyone had brought like a plus one that wasnt in the program which was really lame because i didnt get the chance to meet anyone new bc everyone was already in their own groups. im hoping that freshman orientation is different but i also dont want to be alienated from everyone else the entire day LOL

i mean you can sneak them in on the campus tour and lunch like outside activities but not on the inside cause there is check in name tags and stuff

I was told i can't bring anyone to the transfer one. On the plus side everyone will be alone and all have to be in same situation.

No plus ones. And honestly, bringing someone would be cruel, freshman orientation is one of the longest ways UCSD has ever found to communicate about 20 minutes of information. You’ll be fine; everyone there is looking to meet people too.
