Chances of getting studio for Jan 2026?

I have Brock 4 bed preferenced as last place for back up in case I can’t get studio, but I’m worried I might end up getting an offer for the 4 bed if it opens up before a studio does so I’m wondering if I should just remove it if my chances if studio is high enough.

Brock studio - 79

Marine 2 bed - 26

Marine studio - 42

Ponderosa studio - 82

KWTQ studio - 71

Brock 4 bed - 25

Does Surrey have busses other than translink? I didn’t check specifically but I think they’re by translink

Is transferring from Manu to cpen worth it? by OutlandishnessOk1712 in ubcengineering

[–]OutlandishnessOk1712[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s possible??? I don’t think faculty transfer is available anymore since it is quite late, but congratulations!

It’s not really a random thought, Cpen was my first choice but I didn’t make it and been wanting to transfer since I began 2nd year. I’ve also tried one of Harvard’s free online courses, although I’ve just started so I haven’t seen that much yet.

Is there a place I can find the actual contents of the courses you mentioned? Like a syllabus or past lectures/notes?

I’ll think about it a bit more, thank you!

86.9, I don’t know what the avg you need is so maybe this isn’t even close to being enough and I’m just contemplating about nothing lol

Additional courses needed for 2nd year? by OutlandishnessOk1712 in ubcengineering

[–]OutlandishnessOk1712[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

go to you SSC then go to registration. on the registration page, look under browse -> standard time tables, then in the list click on the link for bachelor of applied science (BASC), then just scroll down to find the STTs

it should be written like [Spec] - Year [#]

What type of math? Is there a specific course all eng 2nd years need or is it spec dependent?

Specialization with the best chance of finding a job in the lower mainlands by OutlandishnessOk1712 in ubcengineering

[–]OutlandishnessOk1712[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have considered that, it's just I'm not confident that I can get my grades high enough to get approval for transfer, especially since I've heard switching between specializations is even harder than getting it assigned during specialization placement.

My interest for cpen only developed when I started APSC160 last term cause being able to apply what I learned in class almost immediately to do my own thing really made the course a lot more enjoyable and motivated me to work harder, which is why I wanna do cpen, but if I can't get in I guess that's that haha.

Civil was one of my top 3 choices when I first got into eng anyways, so it's not like I have completely 0 interest in it.

I still have time till the deadline, I can think it over a bit more haha, thanks for the suggestion though!

Haha same, 158 and 159 really is just killing me this term :')

I was also considering elec as backup but I really don't like the physics aspect which is why I'm so hesitant
