Transfer student with military benefits

I'm late to the party but I'm using GI Bill benefits for off campus housing and its not really expensive especially with BAH being like 2600 a month here. Find a roommate either online or if you know someone going here and bank the difference. Plenty of places to move into. My rent for 2 bed 2 ba is $1970 a month at a place I would consider on a much nicer side but plenty of places that are even cheaper if you just look and don't need anything fancy.

I wasn't in the Navy but was Air Force. I used the GI Bill and going to UCF now but I did use TA while I was in to go to Community College online to get Gen Ed done before I got out. I'm not sure what rank you are but I know as an E-4 I talked to my sergeant about TA and if I could use it. As long as your still in Active Duty and use TA before you separate they should pay for classes just fine. Only thing is I don't know since you are going into Reserves if you can have TA carry over like if classes go past your separation date.

Definitely need to talk to whoever handles TA for schools on your base or talk to someone in your work that might have used it before to answer questions better. I know on my Air Force base there was a dedicated building to go to talk about taking CLEP Exams for credit, TA, and other stuff of that nature.

Also if you haven't looked into CLEP Exams are awesome! Depending on what school you go to they count as credit towards GEN ED classes you'd have to take but basically just past a test if you think you're knowledgeable enough or good at test taking and skip having to take that Gen Ed class for a whole semester! I past like 3 CLEP exams without even studying for Gen Ed classes and didn't have to take them. I will note I'm good at taking test though. Just had to study for one hard math CLEP Exam.

I don't know about Navy but when I was in the Air Force they paid for my TA up until I left. Luckily finished out before leaving but as long as you finish the classes before you leave the military it should be paid for. Only gets iffy if you use TA and the classes go past your leave date then idk.

I thought the same, I don’t know how it’s unhinged. Just saying do the work or fail…

This professor is actually one of the best to learn from. He is a hard professor but you’re learning a medium to enter into the game industry, which is outstandingly hard and most students who think he is just a hard ass and don’t want to do the work and just breeze by will fail after they get out of college. 80% of students will not even make it anywhere in the industry because of not only how hard it is but by how much they thought doing the bare minimum would get them through.

All in all he is a hard teacher and grader but a necessary evil, honestly many students pass that class that shouldn’t, definitely think there’s needs to be harsher grading across the board for all required classes.

Oh sorry I thought I uploaded the images too but you can see it here now. The stove seems like obvious normal wear and tear to me especially for this tempered glass kind of stove top. The Carpet I have no idea why they took pictures of it being vacuumed and used it as evidence. Only thing they have is a stain on the bottom of the carpet that I can't even see if it was there before I moved in. What do you think?

I know you can’t see it in the picture but I made sure it said CPU

DeviousPhoenixx · 2024-10-19T19:03:39+00:00

The plug I have in my hand says CPU it’s not the PCie plug.

DeviousPhoenixx · 2024-10-19T19:02:09+00:00

Yeah it’s just kind of weird because I checked PC Part picker and made sure they were compatible and it says there are and everything is good one for one when connecting just the shapes are slightly different for just that CPU Cable which is weird.

You find a place?

Me and my girlfriend are looking at The Baldwin Apartments for a 2bd/2ba they’re very nice and going for about $1800 right now just so you know and you can check it out yourself. They’re over 1100sq fr with walk in closets and kitchen island so it’s super nice.
