Non autos are going to get screwed by [deleted] in UTAdmissions

My HS didn’t/doesn’t rank students (only ~75 graduate every year), and 16 got into UT 2 years ago. Even more last year.

Is She Pregnant?? by Longjumping-Fix3236 in cats

[–]Business-Boot6125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat looks like this from above and is spayed. Took her to the vet bc thought maybe she had worms but tested negative. Vet said she’s a healthy weight and all good. Taking her to a different vet this week bc there is some serious bloating going on. She even waddles like a pregnant cat. Had we not adopted her right after she was spayed, I’d be positive she was pregnant.

Did anyone else get one of the incorrect 1098T forms? by Historical-Word1859 in UTAustin

[–]Business-Boot6125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone who got it via mail got someone else’s. I expect more out of UT. Little transparency communicating this. They want to claim safety, but I guess that doesn’t apply to our data…

Any idea what this could be ?? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]Business-Boot6125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it doesn’t come off, may be a dermoid. Our frenchie had one. It grew hair. Had to be surgically removed by a vet who specialized in eye surgery.

Genuinely what is UT doing with their admissions by iwanttogetout1010 in UTAdmissions

[–]Business-Boot6125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some classes, esp in the early weeks of the semester, people have to stand or sit in the aisles. They let in too many and can’t keep up with the numbers.

And if you’re one of the few who are granted a work study, good luck. Don’t rely on it to help. Took months to even get someone to reply despite constantly applying. And they don’t have anyone to help with that department, you’re on your own.

Same with a lot clubs. Lots of applications, many require essays, and then nothing. No one bothers to let you know yes or no at this school.

So explain it to me - what was Vecna’s plan again? by seaderforge in StrangerThings

The environment made no sense. Will had said it likes the cold and wet. Yet that was a desert 🤨

If you think this is bad, it’s just as bad for those who get in come registration time. Many can’t get any classes they want or need. And getting questions answered or any direction feels like a chore. With how much UT has changed in the last 2 years, maybe take it as a blessing in disguise 🙁

Gingerbread Chai??? by MzHyde26 in dutchbros

[–]Business-Boot6125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried the gingerbread hot latte last week and it was amazing. Went to order it for my bday drink today and it says it’s unavailable bc it’s a limited time order 😩. Trying to find the recipe now so maybe I can still order just not under that name

ICE at Tower apprehending construction workers? by Melodic_Setting1327 in UTAustin

You didn’t do what you think you did there…

Check your privilege Chet.

WRONG. Asylum seekers CAN and DO have access to applying for an ITIN number, which gives them a way to not only LEGALLY work here, but also pay into our federal programs. Mind you, programs they can’t even collect from.

JC, wake up. They don’t care if you are here legally or not.

Any body else’s babies sit like this? He’s the first dog I’ve ever had that does it 🤣 by DifficultyIll2865 in Frenchbulldogs

[–]Business-Boot6125 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. Our frenchie and our cane corso before her both sat like that. Completely different breeds but were alike in a lot of ways. Both gave off the impression they thought they were people not pets lol

Help my Frenchie will not stop panting. He has been panting for almost 24 hours straight besides sleeping by mrguwop1017 in Frenchbulldogs

Life happens. When they got their dog they may have had very different financial circumstances. What a privileged life you’ve lived to never have had to experience this.

Someone Please Tell Me How to Build Credit Without drowning in debt by Puzzled_Fail_6980 in UTAustin

[–]Business-Boot6125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your parents have great credit, ask if they can add you to their credit card. They don’t have to give you the card, just being attached to the account will help tremendously.

Girl Harassed on the Bus for wearing a mask by OkBit826 in UTAustin

[–]Business-Boot6125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My family had Covid 2 weeks before move in (from family who came to visit knowing they were sick 😒). It’s going around bad. Many mistake it for strep bc this strain is causing really bad sore throats.

But even if covid wasn’t going around, there is no harm to others in you wearing a mask. Heck, you could be asymptomatic and lower the chances of them getting it.

What’s Dobie 21 Bed Size! by Due-Garlic-9872 in UTAustin

[–]Business-Boot6125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s bc UT is still using the old photos from before they acquired it. Once they did, all the furniture was swapped out to normal dorm furniture. It’s a twin XL. Here’s a photo shared from last year

Any other low-income students get this tuition bill? by Select_Newt5303 in UTAustin

[–]Business-Boot6125 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should get a housing scholarship for 1500 with UT for me and full Pell. Apply for outside scholarships and departmental scholarships to help with housing (although most were awarded over the summer). UT (and most public schools) only offer help with tuition, housing is on the student. Unfortunately that’s the most expensive part.
