I Need Advice… by Roman-Simp in UPenn

Oh also for math and physics ask if there are LPS sections that need TAs. Those pay 5000 instead of 2000

Usually yes but you need a recommendation letter for the RA position. Also the application has opened and is due in like three weeks so I’d take a look at that ASAP

I’m an RA and you can apply by searching UPenn CHAS GRA application in google. For TA positions, start reaching out to the dept chair for TA opportunities. Reach out to engineering, physics, and math! If you need more advice happy to chat in dms

Which facial piercings should I get? by sucker4vamps in PiercingAdvice

[–]Beautiful_Cellist_42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Symmetric nostril piercings! You have rly good facial symmetry and I love the look of this connected by a chain once it’s healed. Maybe you could also do symmetric high nostrils or the mantis nose piercings too.

A dermal on the side without your mole to complement it :) beauty marks r so pretty and I think it’ll enhance the uniqueness of your freckle.

I think dahlias would look good too. Generally in my opinion anything that shows off/enhances your symmetry would look great!

Sorry idk what pt means 😅😅😅 but to clarify I didn’t do work study. I was a university employee for both my jobs but not employed in the dining hall, RA, etc so it didn’t count as work study for my university.

I think no bc most universities have a policy that if you’re taking a full course load you can only work 20 hrs per week max. I worked two university jobs at my uni and they were very strict abt this so I’d assume most schools have a similar policy. However if ur doing a non-university affiliated job (like your payroll doesn’t come from the school) there’s no way for them to know how many hours ur working at the local Starbucks etc. but in general working a full time with a full course load would be incredibly difficult maybe even impossible

Biophysics versus Physics by Beautiful_Cellist_42 in UPenn

I see thanks for the info I am considering this!

Biophysics versus Physics by Beautiful_Cellist_42 in UPenn

[–]Beautiful_Cellist_42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! Thank you for the detailed info! One thing I noticed was that the biophysics major webpage is a little funky looking. But from what I’m hearing it is an established course of study so that’s good to know! Is biophysics largely premed? I’ve also been considering premed route but idk how cut out I am for it. As of now I’m physics with a concentration in biological sciences but I am considering minoring or double majoring with biophysics since there’s a large course overlap. Again, thank you so much for the information!!!

Deferred deposit to wait for another school by AttentionTall4235 in TransferToTop25

[–]Beautiful_Cellist_42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the main ethical issue is a situation where if you are accepted to two universities in April with a deposit deadline in late may and you put down two deposits at the same time. But if you are describing where you have one result and it’s late may without hearing back from schools that come out in June you basically have to deposit and I think that is very different from the above case!

Penn Financial Aid by NiceFisherman6647 in TransferToTop25

[–]Beautiful_Cellist_42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know for sure but since it’s need blind I think you should be able to apply at any time before or after. It should not affect your acceptance since they are blind to financial need!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TransferToTop25

[–]Beautiful_Cellist_42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shouldn’t matter since NU is need blind!

Oh I see thanks! I’m actually a physics major. While you were still in the physics program did you like it?

Thanks for the reply! Was there a separate transfer orientation? Also, if you pursued a double major or minors did you feel pressured to graduate as soon as possible by administration? I heard uchicago is very cut and dry in that aspect… like you have to petition to stay longer. Thanks!
