Frequent Questions
- Do I have to have a meal plan?
-
All students who reside on campus must have a meal plan. Meal plan options can be designed to fit your budget.
- Does the Short Line bus schedule allow me time to finish the entire orientation agenda?
-
The bus schedule does not allow time for you to complete the orientation program including registering for your fall classes. If you are arriving by bus, it will be necessary for you to stay overnight an additional evening in order to be able to participate in the entire day's program. Please contact the Orientation Office by phone: (607) 587-3114 or e-mail: orientation [at] alfredstate [dot] edu.
- How do I obtain enrollment verification?
-
If you are in need of enrollment verification (different than your academic transcript), you may complete and return the verification of enrollment form. Enrollment verification only provides date(s) of the term(s) the student attended or is attending, and will show whether or not the student was/is full-time or part-time.
