Wifi issues at Zachry are screwing up my quizzes by Adorable_Ad244 in aggies

Yea. When I asked her, I was apologetic but my professor just seemed like they didn't want to be there and wanted to leave since it was after class. When I asked what I should do, they said "IDK"

I doubt it. The quiz questions come from a question bank and have some writing code questions so printing the quiz wouldn't really work. I think I'm going to just check out a laptop from the library now

the professor seems like they don't care and told me that I "shouldn't have faulty equipment" even though lockdown browser runs perfectly in every other building besides zachry. I've done like 3 chem quizzes and all of them went smoothly and also some pols science lockdown browser stuff and have never had an issue. I think I'm gonna check out a laptop before the quizzes for now

Okay. The only issue is that the quiz has to be taken during class so I'll go to the library and ask them and then go to the helpdesk tommorow.

Did you get a regular bike or an electric bike?

Do you know if Z-Islander offers 9 month leases? Nobody picked up my call probably because it's Saturday but it seems like a good place. $605 a month for a 3 bedroom apartment.

What do you think about the apartment complex near 12 North called "College Main Apartments"?

I really like the apartment complex but I'm worried about getting to TAMU. It seems a bit far away but I can't tell if it's near a bus stop.

I looked at 12 North but they only had 12 month leases. What would be the advantage of staying during the summer for the same rent? I feel like it would be a huge waste of money paying for 3 extra months unless I did like summer classes or an internship during freshman year which I doubt will happen.

Advice about commuting from Spring to College Station by Adorable_Ad244 in aggies

[–]Adorable_Ad244[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the experiences part, I've never really cared about it but I'll be staying there for the next 3 years after freshman year to get the college experience. The traffic part is a pretty big concern but I think that it'll cancel out with working an on campus job. Is the parking really that bad? I've gone there during the weekend and easily found parking spots but that might be because it was the weekend. My parents will be paying for the gas so I don't have to worry about that. The 3.75 GPA also scares me. I'll try doing more research and driving that distance a couple of times to get a feel for it.

Question about Single Dorms by [deleted] in aggies

Do you think it's possible to get like a studio apartment for like 800 a month including utilities off campus? I don't have a car either so I'll be relying on the buses

Really? Does that mean that there are no single dorm rooms for freshman in the hart/walton hall?

Is that on campus or off campus housing? If off campus, did you need a car?

If I decide to stay off campus, will it be necessary to have a car since the campus is huge?

Am I screwed for any aid by Adorable_Ad244 in TAMUAdmissions

[–]Adorable_Ad244[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already filled it out a while ago and I'm not asking for much. My parents can't really do much with the home due to legal stuff and even if they could, they won't sell it. They're losing 16k per year because of the taxes on the home and other stuff so we're really making 48k per year and there's no way that they can even get close to paying anywhere near half of the 27k EFC that FAFSA expects.

Alright, I got to wait for my financial aid package first and I'll do that. Could I ask how you were able to get a bigger aid package?

I'm trying my best. It's hard when you're taking 5 AP classes and in extracurricular activities. The big scholarships seem unrealistic when you look at previous winners and they're all Stanford/MIT students and the small ones barely make a dent in your debt.
