You will screw up your WIN and piss off the registrar.

May not be until the week before classes start. The school should be able to provide you with enrollment verification for insurance purposes.ash0117 wrote:I'm sure this has been asked before, but I really don't want to go through 45+ pages of discussion, so I would love if someone would help me. When do we get our sections/schedule? I need it for insurance reasons so I was wondering when past students got theirs? Thanks!

I think sections came out the last two years around the 1st week of August. If you log into WIN and look at your schedule for the fall semester, it'll show up there when it's ready. They are subject to change (though I don't know anyone who got changed to another section after they were initially assigned to a section).ash0117 wrote:I'm sure this has been asked before, but I really don't want to go through 45+ pages of discussion, so I would love if someone would help me.

I think I picked up my card early August and was able to use the gym before classes started.Incubateus wrote:I'll be moving down to WS in early August, I'm assuming before the school facilities become available. Does anybody have a recommendation on what gym to join?
Most finals have a MC portion. My 1L finals were usually ~20 MC questions + ~2-3 essays. That's not always the case though. I can't remember exactly how many MC questions ConLaw had, but I want to guess that it was around 75. Instead of following the usual 2-3 somewhat lengthy essay format, my CivPro had like 10-15 miniature essays. It really just varies from prof to prof.jsvaughn wrote:Are all our 1L exams in the usual essay format?
I thought that I may have read somewhere that there is multiple choice is also part of exams at Wake?

It really does vary by professor. My first semester, I had 2 exams with only essays, 1 with MC and essays, and 1 with MC, T/F, Short answer, and essays. My second semester, I had 1 with only essays, 2 with MC and essays, and 1 with MC, short answer, and essays.jsvaughn wrote:Are all our 1L exams in the usual essay format?

First off, congratulations! Second, the average length is 10 weeks, and usually end near the beginning of August. But you could do less if you needed. So, you could easily have a wedding and honeymoon in August. Note, though, that if you make a journal or do some other activities, you'll need to be at school sometime during the week before classes start for training. Plus OCI starts in August.jsvaughn wrote:I'll be starting this fall and I am planning on getting married sometime during the summer of 2014.
Could anyone give me the typical dates of summer jobs? Do they usually run right up to the end of school? Or are there at least a couple dead weeks where I could squeeze in a wedding and honeymoon?

Business and IP if you're interested in that area. You can get on it either by grading on (top 20%) or by writing on.Bulls wrote:Business and IP Law or Law and Policy? Shoot!
well, FWIW, i chose wfu over fordham. But i have literally no desire to work in NYC.LawyerMan wrote:Hello Demon Deacons,
I posted this on another thread but thought you guys might be able to help me, here is my situation:
I was just admitted off the wait-list at Fordham, but I have a situation. I have a 20k scholarship to Wake and my parents (WF alums) have graciously offered to pay for the rest - so I could leave Wake debt-free. I have no scholarship to Fordham and I would only receive help only for living expenses, the total COA would be around 150k (!!!!!). I can't see myself living in North Carolina, and working in New York has always been my dream.
Should I risk it and go to Fordham? Or just hustle at Wake, count my blessings, and figure a way to get to NYC after graduation?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Thanks for your reply, I'm leaning towards WF. It just seems to make the most sense. I figure being debt-free will open more doors than going to a school in the area.girlonfire wrote:well, FWIW, i chose wfu over fordham.

in my opinion, if your parents are offering to pay the remainder at wake, take it. I'm from the tristate and sent some resumes back north last December in case I wanted to spend the summer at home, and I got a good amount of interviews out of it. My prior ties to the area were really effective in getting my foot in a couple of doors.
It's important to note that I ONLY applied to DA's, PD's, and public interest, so I can't speak for anything outside of that.
Generally, I'd take the money at WFU (which is what I did IRL). Coming out of LS with no debt might make you more flexible- and you could change your mind about where you want to live and work. HTH

When does OCI occur this year?
We're thinking about August 9th, 2014 as our date which would be the second Saturday in August and after a week long honeymoon means I could be in WS on August 18th. Do you think that would be early enough for OCI?
Thanks for the help!
I like Wells Fargo, because they have ATM's scattered around town and there's a branch on campus.Incubateus wrote:Any thoughts as to what banks are best to use?
