maybe you are in the undergrad section of the site and you should be in the grad student section?

Thanks for the help!

I also haven't done the Student ID Card Request... which was due July 12th. Whoopsie.

Oh, shit. Neither have I. Don't they take a photo when we get there?

yeah, at orientation

[vexion]

Should we still fill the form out?

[Big Tuna]

if you have a photo already, go for it, otherwise you may as well wait til orientation.

Let me find my biggest novelty hat.

Is anyone else still not seeing 'Anticipated Aid' on their Net.Pay bill? On net.pay i have more than $17k due on the 7th with no expected aid, but on studentcenter.cornell.edu I have the full $27k due with my loans showing up. Is anyone else seeing this?

I have the same thing, net.pay doesn't show my aid as cancelling out the bill.

I found my orientation packet. Apparently it went to my brother's address in a different state, and he never bothered to tell me about it. One of the addresses on file for me in Cornell's database is still his. Does anyone still have the envelope that the packet came in handy, so I can try calling them and getting all their mailing info changed over?

Thanks!

What are you asking for? You can go to studentcenter.cornell.edu to update your addresses and such.

[vexion]

Yeah, I have... a while ago. what I'm asking for is the return address. Sorry. Vague.

AFAIK, the admissions office has my current (valid) address on file, because I get all their correspondence here. Ditto the university system itself (through the Student Center) and the Bursar's Office. I'm trying to figure out which Cornell or Law School department has the wrong address on file.

You would probably get the fastest results by calling the law school; here is the phone #: 1-607-255-5141

The net.pay updates once a month, and is due to change this month on the 13th according to the bursar. The Student Center always has the most up to date information. My net.pay shows a charge due instead of a refund amount due to me, but I was told by the bursar that I owed nothing by the 7th. How this systemically delayed net.pay thing allows us to pay/receive correct amounts escapes me.

1Ls can disregard the add/drop e-mail, right?

Just checking.

yup.

When do we know what casebooks we need and when are people getting them?

[sjsteece]

Class schedules should be listed August 9th. Then we'll know what section we're in and you can figure out what to books to buy by comparing it to the reading list. I think that's the day blackboard should be updated as well.

Are there any 2L's or 3L's out there that could tell us what are the recommended hornbooks for each
Class?

Hornbooks are a fantastic way to get a B+ in a course. I recommend not using any if you're shooting for the top of the class.

True for some, not true for others. I hate to say it, but the only real advice that exists for law school is "do what works for you."

What on earth is black board?

[jks289]

What on earth is black board?

We used it in undergrad. It's an online system with class schedules, posted materials from professors, discussion forums, and places to submit work, grades etc. Some teachers barely used it, others did 100% through it. How heavily is it used at Cornell?

I think every professor I had used it to some extent, usually to post announcements or an electronic copy of the syllabus. It's used pretty heavily for lawyering class, since you submit your assignments through it. The writing competition for the journals also uses blackboard.
