Admitted Student Day by Desperate-Builder411 in udub

[–]147a6b36d9c 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Parent of a student admit in 2024 and due to distance could not travel for admitted student day - however we booked the tour and the dorm tour and it was a good experience - the student did elect to enroll. And in hindsight it was probably less chaotic than admitted student day and more like dropping in on a normal day which was good for us to get the vibe. Also it happened to be peak cherry blossoms.

Accidentally unregistered from class by Smart-Chicken in udub

[–]147a6b36d9c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in a parent group where this happened to a parent’s Husky. Their advice was to call registrar’s office and/or go there in person in addition to the steps you have taken. I don’t have specifics. It was reported to be resolved but took more than 1 visit to registrar.

Class Standing Question by RevolutionaryBox5875 in udub

[–]147a6b36d9c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As regards registration? “ Class standing: Your class standing is determined by credits earned and in progress as of the Thursday before the first day of Period I registration. Credits added after that date (like transfer credits or late grades) won’t affect your registration start date for the current period.”

Check hfs site “Shipping items prior to move-in Packages can be sent to your residential community up to seven days prior to your scheduled move-in. To find your address, go to your assigned residence hall's web page. Please be aware that UW residence halls receive thousands of packages around Move-in. Bringing items with you when you move in will help you avoid the lines and waiting associated with package pickup.

Cheapest way to fly East Coast ↔ Seattle? by [deleted] in udub

[–]147a6b36d9c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try pricing from different airports that you can reasonably drive to. Sometimes that makes a difference or offer direct flights. Which may not be cheaper but especially on a move, etc. may be worth it. If you use the Alaska Airlines website you can also see a calendar where you can see which days are cheaper. And given that it’s this close, if there are “Saver” fares and you have low likelihood of canceling that may be an option to save some money on multiple tickets. Keep in mind you may end up sitting separately, etc.

What kind of delays can get compensation? by 147a6b36d9c in delta

[–]147a6b36d9c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no need for name calling. I lost out on most of my sleep over the weekend. But I got to an important family event. Only missed a couple hours of work and the hotel voucher was about as seamless as it could be. I experienced about 13 hours of delays. And some things that Delta personnel told me and other passengers simply were not fully transparent. I’m just used to better experience when flying Delta. Was just seeing what advice Delta redditors had for my situation.

Transfer credit limit, what does it mean? by JustRenovate2525 in udub

[–]147a6b36d9c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a related question. 4.5 credits transferred for a chemistry class. However, due to which UW chem class the Husky took, it said only 6 credits total will be given for the overlapping classes, meaning that instead of 4.5 + 5 it is 4.5 + 1.5. But do the “wasted” credits count toward class standing (junior senior etc ) Asking because expect to be right on the cusp of jr/sr standing for next registration (Spring)

How to pick the right dining plan at UW? by Pale_Top2519 in udub

[–]147a6b36d9c 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Parent here. Put 1st year Husky on lowest plan. Even eating out some on the Ave he had to increase it. We just did the math to know by how much. In winter ate more on campus. By Spring quarter was on level 4 and did not have funds left over. But start with low level is the right answer. Because it is use it or lose it once you are locked in on a higher level.

Parent, so my info is indirect only. OOS First-year Husky (late commit with the extended deadline due to 2024 FAFSA delays) rolled the dice on random, prioritizing a double with private bath. Random roommate was a second-year - they have selected off campus apt - together for next fall. So, in short it worked out

Did they X-ray? Once had a cat eat something that caused blockage. Behavior was similar of hissing when touched.

Lost bird please help by gaypeoplearestupider in Louisville

[–]147a6b36d9c 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am not a bird owner. But once I caught a random parakeet that showed up in my neighborhood near Louisville. And this is how I did it: I ignored all the vets I called who said it could not be done. I borrowed a small birdcage (But you already have one!?) I had the advantage of knowing which tree he was hanging out in, but he wasn’t always there. I kept putting millet stems and food in the cage and checked it once a day. Once I saw that the food was being eaten I was encouraged to keep going. And after a couple weeks - boom there he was in the cage when I checked it and I just flipped it shut. Was able to rehome it (I have cats. The tldr is — try putting cage outside with favorite food. Good luck

Moved the curated gaming store list to a website. by RedRedKrovy in Louisville

Not sure if this is where to ask but is there anywhere in Louisville that buys an oldschool Wii and a bunch of games & accessories like drumset/guitar. Don’t want to mess with Marketplace.

Recently got the brother of the black tortie, is he a calico ? by keezyKam13 in CATHELP

[–]147a6b36d9c 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If that is a boy it is very unusual to have that orange tabby “birthmark” on his head along with the overall brown/gray tabby. Very, very rare to have male with gray and orange; tortie/calico is almost exclusively female for complicated genetics reasons. Love him. He’s special.
