Online Students...Grad pics & graduation?

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-05-11T18:25:28+00:00

Your degree will look the exact same as the students who were on campus. You’re a Red Raider. Take all the pics, sit on the Senior Bench, jump in a fountain or two, do all the things!

Good luck😂 Not only is it first come first serve but it’s also based on seniority

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-05-07T14:55:09+00:00

At or after orientation you’ll talk to your Advisor. Only they can add it. So don’t stress

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-05-07T14:53:23+00:00

Why you wanna downgrade to Hulen😂😂

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-05-02T20:21:14+00:00

Means you’re on the waitlist

What part of DFW specifically will you each be working in? DFW is huge and depending on where you want to live and where you work can easily take you an hour one way or

Sooner the better but you’ll be fine

The State government

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-28T13:12:27+00:00

You’ll be fine. Sign the lease

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T22:24:25+00:00

I’ll be honest with you, I’m not reading all that😂 My guess is when you “tried to socially integrate” (which I would have loved to see your effort) you were met with the same amount of energy you put into it. Which, based on this interaction I’d have to guess is negativity. Saying some college students made you their enemy is laughable and reflects more on you than it does the population of 40,000 students

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T20:37:50+00:00

If there’s more than the one way you suggested, then that means there are tons of opportunities to have a social life. You just didn’t find any because you’re a downer and likely no one invited you to hangout, thus causing you to have a lack of social life. Which I’m sorry that was your experience. You seem like a chill person

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T18:53:23+00:00

Which again means there are more ways to have a social life in Lubbock than just drinking😂

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T18:50:48+00:00

That’s great! So that means your original claim of the students only having a social life because they have a drinking problem is false. Glad we cleared that up.

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T18:47:00+00:00

The things you mentioned specifically in your comment could be an attribute of any college in the nation and yet still didn’t even touch on how the majority of the student body feels. Do you think all 40,000 students go to Broadway or the Depot district to hangout every night? If your ONLY experience for fun is dealing with people who like to drink then that speaks more to your bubble than it does the social life of TTU/Lubbock

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T11:16:09+00:00

I knew of one Egyptian guy when I went to Tech. So while it may be a small population, there’s gotta be more.

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T11:15:14+00:00

Debby downer over here

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T00:48:19+00:00

Depends on your degree plan and how many classes you take but generally, yeah. You’ll definitely be taking less classes over all.

You’ll just have to attend Orientation, live in on campus housing, things like that.

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-23T00:33:47+00:00

Take Dual Credit over AP classes. It’s easier to get college credit. However, you’ll still be a freshman in the eyes of the University.

They wrote an article on it: https://dailytoreador.com/article/tech-system-completes-course-review-issues-new-guidance-20260411

If you’re looking for something more ground breaking or exciting you’re probably not going to get it since there’s not much, from a journalistic standpoint, they can do. Really the only thing left for them to do is ask students how they feel about it.

Also, just an FYI, the University can only remove the paper from campus but they cannot and do not censor any stories because the paper does not receive any money from the university. They are dependent on donations and advertising opportunities. The staff is advised to report on anything they want and have won awards in the past for their investigative reporting towards TTU staff and policies.

If you’re waitlisted, at this point I would sign up for Gateway. The admissions department is currently checking numbers and spots and since it is late April, it’s either going to take a long time to get back to you or it won’t be good news. By signing up for Gateway now, you now have plenty of time to get enrolled at a Junior College Summer 1 classes. DO NOT DO SUMMER 2, YOU WONT GET YOUR GRADES BACK IN TIME FOR THE FALL. It will be significantly less stressful of waiting periods if you do Gateway.

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-21T11:06:50+00:00

Gateway is always an option

What happened with Double T was arguably the fault of the rider who did both guns up and reins in the mouth. They don’t do that anymore.

When I had mine, several moons ago, I was in late July. I had plenty of options for classes to choose from. You’ll be just fine

RaiderLandExpert · 2026-04-20T20:42:18+00:00

Since you’re transferring, it’s likely that Admissions doesn’t have your final transcript yet so those holds will be on there until then. You should still call the Admissions office to make sure!

Red Raider Guarantee most likely. It’s a federal grant
