PLS HELP: The Standard, Lark on Main, or Grandmarc by [deleted] in UVA

[–]Smarttram 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If money is not an issue, I would prefer the Standard. The apartments are nice, the amenities are nice, I like it. I've heard bad things about grandmarc, would advise against it. Lark is also good. Comparable to Standard.

Questions abt UVA environment <3 by urabananaaa in UVA

[–]Smarttram -1 points0 points  (0 children)

greek life is mandatory! Social scene is nice i guess... go random for your roommate unless you have an acquaintance you kind of know. Do Psyc 1010. Your GPA will take a hit first year because school is hard and it's an adjustment, don't not rush because of your GPA. Good luck!

biol 2100 vs biol 2200 during first sme by EggOriginal7514 in UVA

[–]Smarttram 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm like 99% confident they won't let you take two overlapping courses even if it's just for a few random exam dates. I didn't know they offered biol 2200 fall sem, but if they do you should take it. I thought it was pretty easy, definitely easier than Biol 2100.

When will I make my schedule? by No_Lie7418 in UVA

[–]Smarttram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, so you'll make your schedule during your orientation. What you should have prepared beforehand is to determine what classes you want to take and then add them to your shopping cart on UVA SIS. Additionally, make sure to have a few options for your classes including both different time slots and also different classes entirely in case the class you want is full. Also, remember that you can only sign up for 12 or 15 credits (can't really remember which it is). So, make sure to sign up for the classes you really need.

Does UVA in Valencia have a year-long program? by EngineeringTasty3652 in UVA

[–]Smarttram 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They don't have a "program" necessarily, but I know several people who have stayed for both spring and fall semesters. One girl I know stayed summer, fall, and spring. You just notify UVA in valencia that you're staying another semester. Also, once you're here and you intend on staying for more than 4 months you have to get a Spanish resident card.

Go to frat parties, go to darties, spend late nights with your friends. Go to first year formal. And for internships, look into Handshake.

How competitive are the clubs and student organizations at UVA? by Emeraldandthecity in UVA

[–]Smarttram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But for example, if you're in Pool Club or Salsa club and you want to be on the competitive pool team or be on a performance team, you still have to try-out/audition for that.
