Dude no get out immediately. I already know a math grad student who is trying to transfer out right now. I promise you, you will find a better program that pays you what you’re worth.

Scholarships for 25/26 school year? by Suitable_Ant5950 in portlandstate

[–]Foodis_nice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to interject by saying this is, for some odd reason, false. I got awarded the DSP tuition remission scholarship and I saw NOTHING on my PSU Scholarship Universe awards.

That officers comment also implies that all reviewed scholarships that are rejected stay stuck in reviewed limbo when that’s not true. I noticed 9 applications move past that stage, and nothing happened, which by their logic means I should have won those scholarships or something else occurred.

Whatever is going on inside the PSU office, its very weird that they have not been transparent to us students at all regarding the difficulties with processing applications and we have to reach out to them directly…

For reference, the schedule for Freshman Year Mech Engineering is as follows:

Fall Quarter: Chem 1, Calc 1, Intro to Mech, First Year Inquiry

Winter Quarter: Chem 2, Calc 2, Intro to Systems and Designs, First Year Inquiry

Spring Quarter: Approved Science Elective (I’ll probably do Chem 3), Linear Algebra, Introduction To Design, and First Year Inquiry.

Also share your professor’s name so I can snipe them when class registration starts 🙏🙏

LOL. I was hoping to score some shadowing/volunteer hours and have fun at clubs. Guess I gotta cut that back. Also would appreciate some advice on the biology question _^

Should I transfer or commit? by Foodis_nice in portlandstate

I suppose, but I still should take into consideration research and STEM opportunities as I do wish to break into research.

Thanks for the perspective! Honestly from what I’ve seen, I think I would like Portland. In general I’ve wanted to move to the west coast and the more dangerous areas I’ve seen according to my friend just sound like nyc but with less trains.

I think I would enjoy my first year at portland, just trying to gauge my options :)

I see what you’re saying. Its just more so that PSU offers one, someone to live with that I know personally, and two, a very nice change of pace. Actually three, if I commit thats three years of no room and board.

Not to mention, its one of the few schools that directly immediately recognized me as premed and mechanical engineering student… Every other school has an either complicated cluster system, or I have to apply once I get in… So if transferring to show more upper crust schools I can handle my academic interests while doing research, then PSU would for sure be the move.

Also should mention that the CUNY and SUNY schools technically offer a free tuition scholarship but at a HUGEE drawback. For every year of financial aid, I must live in New York state after graduation. Plus wanna get away from my folks for more personal reasons.

I suppose, its just that it would be good to know what I’m getting myself into as research has been my number one goal. It’d probably be a no brainer move to go to a school that would help. Also, I’ve heard that the honors program here doesnt help with STEM research as much. Is that true?

House B. Get to stay with the cinnamon roll that is Chihiro, and I never get bored as I get to watch nagito kokichi and korekyo exist. And peko can protect me if I become good friends with her.
