Do you know anything about the book situation??

So, I got this question and thought I would post the answer so everyone could see the answer.

College textbooks...

The most important thing you'll need is your class schedule. That's how you make sure to buy exactly the books that your professor is going to use in the class.

There are two options for actually purchasing them:

1. Buy online. Go here http://immaculata.bkstore.com to order your books online from the bookstore. You can have them shipped to your house (if you order soon) or have them waiting in the bookstore for you to pickup when you move in.

2. Shop in person. Again, make sure you have your schedule and head to the bookstore. The textbooks are setup by academic department, then course number, and finally section.

There will be people in the bookstore to help you with your selections and point out their great deals on Immaculata t-shirts, sweatshirts, etc.

Check the list... do you have everything??

Okay... seriously... it's go time. If you're coming this Fall, it's time to make sure that you have everything you'll need for your room!

After years of seeing some people bring WAY TOO MUCH and other people forgetting things that would have made them happy... I created this list of things not leave home without.
Is there something that I forgot... just post a comment with the things you're not leaving home without!

See you on the 25th!

3 weeks to go...

We're only three weeks away from Move-In Day 2007!

Campus is buzzing with final preparations of residence halls and finishing summer construction before the new students arrive! Here's a few tips for those of you joining the IU family this fall:

1. Call your roommate. I promise that you'll only need one TV, one stereo... you get the idea. Decide now who's bringing what, and split things up. One person can bring a small fridge and the other a TV/DVD player.

2. Review your packing list. Two important things to remember: one: this isn't the time for winter sweaters! Pack just the clothes you'll need between now and fall break or thanksgiving. two: you're not moving out of your house forever... it's okay to leave some things at home.

3. Check your email and visit the portal. Everyone has been sent their various logins for email, myiu portal, etc. Visit these sites before you come to campus so that you're used to using them when classes begin. This is how you'll learn about what's going on!

4. Call us with your questions!

Enjoy the remaining weeks of your summer!
