Hi, I'm plainning to start using the gym at school 3 days a week to work out and gain some muscle mass . I'm 25 years old and only 4'11" in height and weight about 95 lbs ( short and skinny lol) . Going to try and push a 3000 calories diet (6 meals a day). Are the following good enough? Are there anything I need to take off or add in to improve it?

ON Fish Oil Softgels: 1 softgel after breakfast and maybe another one at dinner.

Universal Animal Pak: 1 pack after breakfast.

ON 100% Whey Gold Standard:
Preworkout: 1 scoop (30.4 g)

Postworkout: 1 scoop whey (30.4 g), NOW Dextrose: 6 tablespoons ( 57.6 g), ON Pure Glutamine Powder: 2 teaspoons (10 g)

1 scoop of whey with milk before bed.

How long before should I take the preworkout shake? Should I take out the preworkout shake and increase my postwork or keep my preworkout and increase my postworkout? What about on days that I'm not working out, do I still need to take all of the above?

Yes, thats fine for the supplements. Make sure you have solid whole foods for your pre-workout meal and post workout meal. Obviously you don't need the dextrose on non-workout days, but everything else should remain the same. You can take out your pre-workout shake and add the scoop to your post-workout shake as long as you have the solid meal about an hour and a half before you hit the weights.

I would just take a regular multi vitamin instead of animal packs--save yourself some money.

You could also take creatine if you want.

On non workout days just be sure to get a gram of protein per lb of body weight (that should be every day). But you won't need to be concerned with creating the insulin spike that you do with the post-workout shake.
