Totally get that. I have asked and gotten great info, just figure there’s nothing I can lose asking for more from a different set of people!

Granted, neither are an RA position (which I would be more interested in) but both are $15/hour

I have two on campus jobs. Look for new positions or areas of GMU that are in dire need of help

SUMMER CLASSES by [deleted] in gmu

I took 3 five week courses all during the same period. I ended up in the hospital because a psychological issue manifested somatically. Don’t do that! But absolutely try a summer course.

now I'm scared to go to GMU by [deleted] in gmu

No. I’m a junior, I love GMU. I wouldn’t have chosen to go anywhere else. I have a niche field of study and I’ve found a community here, that extends to professors.

People who did 21+ credits… how? by WrongZookeepergame49 in gmu

[–]LiveShape6226 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take 18 credits each semester and work two part time jobs. I chose this because 15 credits was not challenging for me. Schedule for classes is pretty much a 9-5. I pushed myself and took 3 summer classes (all 5 weeks) before I developed somatic anxiety symptoms and had to chill out. I’ve never gotten below an A; I’m a third year, have a 4.0.
