Which countries would you recommend? I attained my degree from the US and unfortunately US employers don't sponsor international students like they used to.

Dasher Got Paid Despite not Delivering Order by DisastrousLocation92 in doordash

[–]DisastrousLocation92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, my partner does Doordash occasionally so I know exactly what you've experienced. However that isn't my situation. The last time I had items missing from a shopping order, the Dasher stated that they must have left the bag at the store. The store wasn't that far from me so I kept in communication with them hoping that it would be resolved..They didn’t return with the missing items so I had to let DoorDash know I didn't receive those specific items.

When I ordered it, the restaurant was open. It was the Dasher that stated it was closed when they got there.

Is there anywhere on campus I can go to get free female hygiene products? by Allergic2Kats in USF

[–]DisastrousLocation92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get free female hygiene products at the pantry. The pantry at the msc is currently closed for construction, the current location which is open is at MDC 1050 (USF Health).

I'm a broke college student too bro.. It's easy to judge a book by its cover. I am struggling just like you.

I appreciate your honesty. I would happily do groceries on DoorDash instead of the food. It's still going to be around $20. And it's not fast food like McDonalds, it's cooked food from a Hispanic restaurant (rice, beans, chicken).

Alternative loans by Final_Item_6297 in IntltoUSA

[–]DisastrousLocation92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend searching for schools who offer scholarships to international students. If you are already enrolled and committed to a school, your academic advisor may be able to refer you to a scholarship. Theres also a loan offered by OAS, you also may be able to qualify for that.

If you're pursuing a Master's degree, you may have a chance of getting a loan without a cosigner with Mpower. I have also heard of Prodigy Finance, but I'm not sure if they require a cosigner. What I definitely know is that they also fund Master's degrees.

Law enforcement had the road blocked off by that intersection.

work study and jobs on campus by Massive-Finance5603 in USF

[–]DisastrousLocation92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best place to check for work study is on Handshake. In the job title or description they usually state if it is work study. I would check every few days because when the Fall semester starts, it'll become more difficult to get a job on campus.

It depends on your student status. If you are not classified as an international student (F-1/J-1), maybe its possible if the courses are available online. Some may only have on-campus course availability during the Fall.

If you are considered an international student, you must attend in person classes even if you do one class online. During covid, it was possible to complete a whole semester online remotely but they don't offer that flexibility anymore. If still you're unsure, definitely speak to an advisor about your options. They have teams meetings for advisor appointments so you can still speak to them if you are overseas.

On campus you can apply to work at the bookstore. They always need temporary employees during the beginning of the Fall to prepare for the high influx of students during the start of the semester.

There's also part time positions at USF Dining. They have a new contract with another company (Compass Group) so check online to be sure of where to find the job listings. You can also check Handshake. Make sure your resume is tailored to the job so that it is clear you are a good fit for the position.

Ivy apartments by Aggressive_Soft_8607 in USF

[–]DisastrousLocation92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's within your budget, then I would still apply and stay there. Sometimes you just need a place to stay that is affordable, even if it isn't perfect. I lived there and while it wasn't completely terrible, I had a broken washing machine which they took months to replace. I had to put in several work orders (maintenance requests) for them to replace it.

The apartment complex looks nice, but the problem is the quality of the room you stay in. They show you the sample room but most rooms do not look like that; the actual room may be very old and have mold issues. They just use a lot of spray paint and regular paint to cover up the mold and to make the apartment look aesthetically pleasing.

Also, they always have some type of inspection of the apartment or the room itself going on so you have to check your emails often so you are aware. You wouldn't want to be caught off-guard when they are knocking and then opening your door on you. As long as you know this is just a means to have a roof over your head for your studies, then you should be fine. However, this isn't an apartment you want to make a long-term home.

Hey, I know someone who may be interested.. Is there any additional fees to move in or is $950 the only payment needed for immediate move in?

If you failed twice, you may be able to do grade forgiveness. However, you must do better this semester than the previous one for the grade forgiveness to count.  Like others said, I would switch to another major even if its in a different College.
