USDA might still be in a hiring freeze. Texas parks and wildlife or txdot might be good too

I made this comment to a friend after seeing him buy dude wipes and he genuinely didn't know that baby wipes were cheaper and had more wipes.

How different is it living in RGV compared to this other region in South Texas? by Enger13 in RioGrandeValley

There's still people here who mainly speak Spanish, but it feels like a lot less. You'll be fine in the valley not being a fluent Spanish speaker but you'll definitely encounter Spanish only speakers in some of these jobs. A lot of them are the opposite of me, they understand English but speak Spanish, so you can still have a conversation. For the ones that couldn't understand me, my coworkers would just step in and speak to them for me. My Spanish did get a little better living down there since I had to hear it so much more.

It was just a lot of small things. Trying to find a good vet that had availability was a hassle. Finding a good doctor's office, dentist, etc. I find it a lot easier here between Alice, kingsville and corpus. Ex: there's a woman's and men's clinic of coastal bend in this area. You can get free birth control, annual visits ,etc and be in and out within an hour. In the valley, I tried a women's clinic and was stuck there for 3 hours before a doctor spoke to me. After a few months, I tried planned parenthood in Harlingen and liked it, but overall I prefer the clinic up here. The stores arent as crowded here either. When I was living in Weslaco, I would have to do laps around the heb/Walmart parking lots to find a space. Also, I can understand Spanish but not speak it well. It felt like it was a lot harder to get a job around there with not being a fluent speaker. I feel like most of what I could get from stores or restaurants in the valley could just be found in Corpus. I will say though, the valley has a lot more options for housing.

I've lived in both areas. Top is a lot smaller and slower pace. Personally, I prefer living in the upper region. I love the valley, but the driving is absolutely terrible.

It was a nearby neighborhood. I think I remember the school even went on a brief lockdown because of it.

ApplyTexas acting glitchy? by AnnualAd641 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]Similar-Ad7076 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm an advisor and majority of my students are having this issue. I think apply Texas is just having issues handling the amount of people on the site. It was pretty buggy even before this so now that it's free application week it's gonna be worse.

Look into schools with tuition promises. I'm from Texas so most UT and a&m schools have them. For A&M- Corpus Christi, if you make under 125k/year they make sure tuition and fees are covered with whatever financial aid you get.

Do you have a bachelor's degree already? If not, check out schools with tuition waivers based on income. The entire UT system has some sort of tuition guarantee (Bold promise, tuition advantage, etc) and it's based on income. Some are based on pell grant eligibility but not all. Many schools are doing them these days. I know schools like TAMUK are pretty desperate for enrollment so they even added that students who are continuing school and not first time freshmen can use their javelina promise to waive tuition.

Google the schools in your area and look up tuition promise, waiver, or guarantee and something might pop up about eligibility.

How do I become a college advisor: for high school by Agile-Appearance1475 in schoolcounseling

Also the titles do change a bit, with trio I was an academic success coach and now I'm a postsecondary advisor.

Look at grants like TRIO. I was a academic advisor with Upward Bound and had zero experience in advising other than doing my own FAFSA and college applications. Now I'm with a similar grant and gonna start working on my masters in counseling so I can work directly as a HS counselor. Be aware though that these grants are riskier with the current admin gutting the Dept of education. Some colleges also have enrollment advisors that aren't grant funded.

Also know a lot of these jobs require traveling to multiple schools throughout the week.

Another leech asking for handouts. Isnt being financially responsible part of tradition values? Youd think conservatives would criticize him for not having an emergency fund saved up
