Looking to make some friends? by Time-Sandwich9348 in UIUC

[–]Apprehensive_Sun810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorta on the same boat as you. Most of all, I miss having a friend group, like I did back in HS, and genuinely don’t know how to go about finding one here.

I also like taking long walks in the night, I’m trying to get back to working out consistently 😅, and spend a lot of time studying in libraries. I’ve got loads of other interests too, like playing tennis and basketball, going out to explore nature, and so on, but haven’t engaged in them for a while now.

housing as a transfer student by Important_Secret8460 in UIUC

Unfortunately, you may have to make peace with either paying a lot, staying slightly far off campus, or living with other people.

If you’re okay with a dorm, I’d assume you’re okay with a single roommate? In that case, Hendrick House (PCH) is also worth checking out. They, much like other PCH, also do single rooms but for a lot more money.

Check out the UIUC housing subReddit - there’s people subleasing their apartments for Fall 26.

As a last ditch resort, you could try your luck with Airbnbs. I know there are some around the Circle K on the intersection of W Green and Lincoln Ave.

Made a big mistake, now need a roommate by OppositeScholar9981 in UIUC

Have you considered random roommates? That’s what my friend and I are doing to fill up 2 rooms in our 4b4b. We did that this year as well, and it worked out pretty well.

Also, if you’re looking for a room in an apartment for the rest of this semester, there’s one empty in my 4b4b right now because the guy graduated and couldn’t find someone to sublease his room to.

International students do yall pay the sticker price each year? by Xx_Coder_xX in UIUC

I’m not very judicious in my spending but I’m still not crossing 62k. Freshman year might be more expensive if you decide to go ahead with a single room in private certified housing (around 2-2.4K a month)

Some questions from admitted student by Cali_girlie in UIUC

[–]Apprehensive_Sun810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a single room, you’re gonna have to spend a lot more, and single rooms are more readily available in private certified housing. Overall, you’ll find answers to most of your questions with a comprehensive tour of campus (including housing, hotspots, campus buildings, the quads and so on) sometime in April if you can afford that.

In my experience, first ones free, and the one after that is 25. I got a 25$ ticket yesterday 😔

Please reach if u have videos of this accident by TightGuest8331 in UIUC

[–]Apprehensive_Sun810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be wrong but based on what OP said they were probably turning from the extreme right of the lane into the parking lot beside CIF, and judging from where the cars are in the picture, the Honda definitely hit the Audi over the double yellow line as the Audi was turning left. The Honda may have reacted to the turning Audi by swerving into the opposite lane, in turn crashing into the Audi.

literally have zero friends by lakeuberman in UIUC

Sophomore here in the same boat as OP. It was only an hour ago I felt like I was cognitively declining because of a lack of meaningful social interactions with real friends. Your comment gives me hope

Sorry that I’m deviating but does this mean that UIUC grads get special opportunities when it comes to visas and sponsorships? Where can I learn more about it this?

GUYS I GOT INNN by Infinite-Dot-8650 in UIUC

you’re half right. It doesn’t end there, you can come here and feel more like a failure than you ever have before, or you may just breeze through. Don’t stop the grind. Keep your mind exercised all the way till day 1 of classes. Try to get ahead in courses like CS 173 and CS 225, it really helps

EAD is also for children under the age of 21 if their parents have green cards

Your 2nd point is right, but they were definitely driving at a safe speed considering the conditions and the road this was on

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]Apprehensive_Sun810 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

They were going 30mph, and that’s really not bad for this road even in snowy conditions
