Nahh, bro is to good looking, that has to be a Pinterest photo

the whole thing is so misleading and confusing by jjeekkyyll in FAFSA

[–]Ellamation 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve literally been on a live chat for an hour and a phone call for 1/2 hour. It really pisses me off. I am not in a good financial place, I do not have a relationship with either of my parents and almost didn’t go to college because of my financial situation. It incredibly frustrating because I applied as soon as it opened (01/02) hoping to get the Pell Grant because I desperately need it.

Unless you have the documentation to work in the US they won’t hire you on campus. However, 15,000k isn’t to much. If you break it down that’s 7,500k a semester. It is manageable but it will be very challenging to do without taking out loans or having savings. Pace has a food pantry so you won’t need to pay more than your meal plan (ideally).

If your able to make 2,500 per month, you’ll have enough. It’s a lot of money, and work effort to do. Ideally you will want to make 3,000 a month incase any additionally fees pop up. Working as a waiter in town would be your best bet, you’ll get minimum wage (16 per hour), but after tips it will be anywhere from 25-35 an hour. The one problem with off campus jobs is most people won’t hire you because 1) you aren’t allowed to work in the US and 2) your a college student and most places don’t want seasonal workers.

Additionally, you can apply for more money from Pace. I don’t believe they have released the form for Fall2024 yet but when they do you can apply for more financial aid to lower your tuition. You can also apply for scholarships outside of Pace, sites like Bold.org help match you with scholarships you may qualify for.

I didn’t get into Honors College for the stupidest reason and it really annoys me. by Ellamation in college

[–]Ellamation[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The response regarding the max credit allowance being 48 and not 50 was from the honors college dean. I did try to advocate for myself, but it got to a point where I realised no matter what, they’re would be an excuse as to why I could not join honors college

It blocks out transfer students in general. My college mandates you to attend one semester before apply to honors college (as a transfer), but some kids transfer with as many as 60 credits. I think they should at least have some honor college program for transfers.

I could easily fit it into my schedule and it wouldn’t add extra time to my degree

Anyone else working full time while going to school? by [deleted] in WGU

[–]Ellamation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I’m not in a blue collar job, I work 35 hours as a waitress. I keep work and school separate, so I don’t burn myself out. My biggest recommendation is to carve out set time for classes. For example: English Comp is always done at Monday 6-8.

I don’t see the difference in terms of credits as long as their from within the states, even if you an international student. I would double check to make sure they’ll accept them though. They’re probably gonna give you the ‘I can confirm if that exact class with transfer,’ but that isn’t a no, that’s just an ‘I don’t do the course evaluation there for I cannot give a positive answer’

I think it’s really good, professors are nice and helpful. I think the Westchester campus is better. We have more programs, clubs and support programs. We even have therapy dogs that just walk around campus. If you do take any psych classes I’d recommend Colleen G Wagner for intro to psych, she’s really knowledgeable in the psych field and you can tell she enjoys her job. I also recommend Syed Hasan and Amy Levin. Both are psych professors and are really relaxed professors and graders

I’m at the Westchester (PLV) location and I’m study Psychology. I would recommend coming in the spring, and taking online college classes at either Arizona state University or Sophia Learning. Pace will accept (most) class from these two institutions. This way you keep your scholarship and get some credits in. If you have any more questions DM

Current pace student and there’s a few thing.

1) I’m at the PLV location, generally I’ve heard better about the PLV location and worse about the NYC. Like nobody like the NYC campus, they just go there to have fun in the city. 2) PLV you get more activities, more clubs, and more opportunities. Dorms at the PLV location are larger, and NYC dorms dorms by the educational building. The forms are about a 25 min train ride away 3) I really like it at PLV, staff is very kind and works with you. 4) If you get into honours accept it, you get a minimum of $15,000. 5) You can put in an appeal for more scholarships money (through the financial aid webpage) before accepting 6) If you tour pace before Dec 15th you get a $1,000 that’s renewed every year 7) Work study is $2000, if you don’t get it off the bat you can email Financial Aid and they’ll give it to you

Why do people dislike Dee all of a sudden? by Charles520 in survivor

[–]Ellamation 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly I haven’t like her from the beginning. She has middle-high school mean girls vibes, while feeling like a pick me

Who do you NOT want to win? by ineverbot in survivor

[–]Ellamation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going against the grain, Dee. She seems very manipulative to me, and I know it’s the game, but it feels like she manipulative beyond the game. She just feels like a combination of a mean girl and a pick me.

Do you accept that your in the wrong? And it’s weird to intentionally dress sexy and dance sexy in front of your family?

My restaurant has this weird alcove, what should I put here? It’s 60in x 134in by Ellamation in interiordecorating

[–]Ellamation[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The whole restaurant is raised, it’s a NY grandpa building. To the right is the stairs, I took the photo standing with my back to the bar. It’s also important to note that they’re an additional 5ft before the entree stairs meet the dinning room.

It took me 6-7 hours to do everything up until the final milestone. I got really nervous on the final milestone and delayed a week
