how does moving in work?

Hi! This is a bit early, but my parents need to request time off work, so I wanted to ask how move-in works.

Do you check in during a time slot and then have free time (like going back to your hotel or exploring the city), and then there’s convocation that evening? (i think its sun aug 30th... what it said on the housing web) Do parents usually stay for that? And then do you stay in your dorm that night while your parents leave and NSOP starts?

So would my parents basically just drive me to Columbia, help me move in, and then head out?

Could someone share how their move-in and freshman stuff went?

AP scores😭?

Does anyone remember if they had to submit AP scores to Columbiabafter being admitted?

None of the AP classes I have/ will take would give me any credit, besides my AP calc score which allows me to start on calc 2.

I kinda slacked off senior year with my AP classes. I still have As in the class but I haven't been reviewing and don't remember any previous units AT ALL since I originally planned to just tell my counselor I wasn't going to take the test even though I paid for them ( someone did that last yr, but this year they are fining us $40 for not taking it😭). So anyways I have to take my test and will probably get a 1 or 2 on them💀

Also since I self reported some scores in my application I'm wondering if they will ask to verify... Bc if they do ... They will probably see this yrs scores along with it😞

Edit: jst to clarify, the AP scores I self reported before are accurate, I'm just wondering if failing a AP test would cause you to be reciend in the same way failing a class senior year would (or if they even ask for AP score reports at all, since the website says AP scores are not req for admission)
