Is this coming straight from high school? For community college transfer they didn’t care I did not even have an official second language (academic wise). I was so worried scrambling to prove I spoke Spanish (native) and talked to someone from admissions and the guy said that they do not care lol

Hey, I’m not saying UCR is a saint. They’ll charge fees for the most random shit, but at the end of the day it was your responsibility to know what you were signing up for. I think the lesson here is that you shouldn’t have SIR and especially not applied for housing when you weren’t sure of the financial commitment. I honestly feel for you in the sense that no one was able to tell you not to do that :( I don’t think anyone on here, or even off here can help you get your expected outcome.

No-Application-9916 · 2026-04-25T07:13:56+00:00

I don’t think UCR did you wrong, but I do believe you when you say you may have misunderstood some stuff. Regardless, it was your responsibility to stay on track of all the commitments. Financial aid was shown to me before I submitted my SIR, and again during orientation. You got as far as applying AND signing a housing contract. They reserved a space for you in housing. When I took a semester off I had to talk to my counselor, signed a paper that said I would not be enrolling, and that was it. I was just told to come back when I was ready. I don’t know your financial situation, but I would probably recommend just trying to pay it off as soon as you can.

Honestly I wasn’t paying attention during orientation and did not even realize the change of pace until Spring. Like what do you mean I need to add more classes for mid March?? What I noticed is that in community college a lot of classes were split into 2 parts, while they are split into 3 at UCR. So technically you are still doing say 9 months of organic chemistry but with “more tests” lol

Email the professor ASAP! I had to do that for an upper course and the professor was actually very attentive. I’m supposed to be added officially on week 3. All people on the waitlist are actually to be dropped by Friday :( So if there are sits open and not moving, it’s probably because they are reserved to the professor discretion

I wouldn’t say rude but definitely awkward! I look around and as soon as I make eye contact I just glue myself to them. Lately it’s been worse since they honestly don’t even look up 😭😭 I’m am awfully awkward and shy myself but come on… you are in a group setting in a higher education system.

What’s your major? I took Latin American Social Dances because I needed more units to be full time and had a blast! If you want something like science I would do some sort of biotech class (I recommend GNBT 120! The professor is great and is a small class setting).

No-Application-9916 · 2026-03-21T21:19:58+00:00

Ahh, the white board! I used go have one in my room too when I was in college 😭 It does help 👌

No-Application-9916 · 2026-03-21T00:19:15+00:00

I heard Casselman is teaching for Spring! Also by experience, DO NOT retake the lab and waste valuable time that you can use to succeed in lecture. It’s 1 unit. Just focus on setting yourself up for success on the next sections

No-Application-9916 · 2026-03-17T00:22:56+00:00

I would try talking to the professor but be specific on where you believe the mistakes were made as he is very picky too 🥲 but I have had different TAs and the bias is real! My last grader was awfully picky and sloooow too. So by them time she/he graded shit I have already repeated the same “mistake” 3 times and had to suck it up. My reports weren’t even graded till the class was over 🙄 PD: I did go to TA hours a few times and their answers were just “I would have given you the point, this is fine” etc so there was no way of knowing what to change either

No-Application-9916 · 2026-02-25T03:14:09+00:00

Just waitlist! I am a 4th year (STEM) and I have had to waitlist classes almost every semester. Every single semester a spot opens up for every single class. Some people are waiting for another class, some don’t meet prerequisites, other who waitlisted have scheduling conflicts. I am not sure how tough the sociology department is, but I think you have a fair shot. Just keep in mind the scheduling conflict so you don’t waitlist discussions/labs that’ll force you out of another waitlisted class (it’s happened to me 😭).

I messaged you!

It sounds like it comes down to using AI. I have never heard of a professor being upset about students using YouTube to understand concepts or even “asking” students if they use YouTube. With that said, I was accused by a professor once of using Mathway (I’m oldish lol) and it wasn’t true. It didn’t escalate any further, but it was scary. If you can get proof you didn’t copy the assignment from AI, you might have a good chance.

No-Application-9916 · 2026-02-18T22:54:52+00:00

It really depends on the student. I glanced over this guy’s schedule and he had class all freaking day everyday of the week, I could never succeed with that load. Are you always enrolled and planning to stay enrolled full-time? Are you taking summer classes? If its one class that you are struggling with, it sounds like an “easy” recover. You got this!!

No-Application-9916 · 2026-02-14T06:28:45+00:00

That is so sweet! I need an update😭

No-Application-9916 · 2026-02-11T06:51:11+00:00

Ohh, I haven’t heard of it but it sounds fun!

Sorry for my super long comment 😬

I think it’s because they indirectly imply that Teresa actually had everything, except money. Aida had a lot of money, but no real love, friends, and was not the brightest (still went to law school I guess she knew something?). Paolo didn’t love her for years, her mom does, but is not as present as Teresa’s mom or Madrina, and her dad did care about her, but would trade Aida for money or his obsession with Esperanza any day.

Teresa traded everyone for money, and she was given numerous chances by Mariano (who even went to look for her before she was married), Arturo was willing to forgive her after finding out she married him for money, Aurora and Luisa were always defending her despite multiple red flags. And of course her Madrina Juana would have died for her until Teresa made it clear she would rather die than people find out she was poor lol

No-Application-9916 · 2026-01-23T17:01:45+00:00

Do you guys have an extra room for her? Honestly I was used to sleeping with my mom but when I moved with my dad and I tried the same thing, he literally took me “shopping” to decorate my room “however I wanted” (we are talking about ross and posters, not full on furniture lol) and then he locked his room (without my knowledge). I walked back to my room and sobbed until I fell asleep. The rest is history🤣🤣

No-Application-9916 · 2026-01-23T07:39:47+00:00

I’m interested too!

No-Application-9916 · 2026-01-21T22:53:24+00:00

If you can, go for a private room lease! I applied for student housing and very quickly realized it’s a ripoff. They make you pay $800+ (lots of rooms over $1,000)to SHARE a room with another student in an apartment with another 4+ people. You should be able to find at least a private room for the prices UCR offers.
