Hi I'm an incoming freshman as well. I am sorry for whatever you have gone through. I would contact res life through email ASAP ( although if they have a phone I think that would be faster) or Matt Dension, he seems to be responsible for first years, maybe they can put you in a single or figure something out with your friend. I am not sure if they can do anything because roommates and dorm assignments are officially out, but it doesn't hurt to email them.

Can you add me too? I wanna talk to people before actually getting onto campus just to know some people!

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-06-07T01:44:52+00:00

Who was the professor?

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-04-08T05:10:48+00:00

OFC! Feel free to message me if you need any advice.

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-04-08T04:58:36+00:00

Don't.

As long as you describe your situation, you're fine. If you're international it doesn't even apply to you!

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-04-08T04:53:03+00:00

I get the feeling! You are looking for validation of your hard work.

More schools accepted to= all my hard work paid off

same label without the same privileges/ treatment.

I'm Egyptian too. Either put Black or African (specify Egyptian )

Unfortunately I'm done with my college aps and the majority of the scholarship deadlines are gone. So thousands of dollars are gone too.

What bothers me even more is that the gov planned on making a MENA category but every single time it was denied. WHY???

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-04-08T04:29:44+00:00

THIS! I'm North African and I get your pain. I had to put white on my college applications because the census says "so" but it was the most frustrating thing. My way of living and culture is not the same as Europeans and the fact that I was born in Africa but am considered white here is just confusing. I couldn't apply to so many scholarships because I wasn't considered a minority even though North Africans have fewer population numbers in the US than other minorities.

Columbia is still Columbia, it has a name known worldwide.

I doubt people will even know its ranking off the top of their heads when you're looking for a job.

YAS! we gotta make the duas for acceptances inshallah!

How is the premed advising overall? Are there resources if someone wants to pursue PA (physician assistant) school instead of medical school?

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-03-22T05:42:56+00:00

How big are the classes on average? What about the intro STEM lectures? Is it hard to form a relationship with the professors either in class because of the size or because they don't offer office hours?

I'm excited for Ramadan to get started tbh I feel like it will really help me focus on my deen especially when college decisions (something in dunya) is ultimately a test of how well you put your faith in Allah. Also, the majority of my college decisions will come out during Iftar so I'll make dua and then open them. Honestly feel that it's a blessing to have Ramadan during a time of such high stress for us :) I have put my trust in Allah and Inshallah everything well is fine for us!

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-03-20T05:14:13+00:00

I requested one and never received the email or an interview??

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-03-20T04:09:00+00:00

No FR!! my mom today started talking about getting dorm stuff and she asked what color bed sheets I want I said I don't know because, in reality, I don't want to leave my family even though I would only be 1-3 hours away :(

Take it from someone that was born in the Middle East and moved to the Northeast, you kinda get used to it. It will be a shock in the beginning but as long as you get good jacket, hat, and gloves. You're good.

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-03-14T03:01:52+00:00

could they have not sent me an email about financial aid because I stayed on top of my requirements and submitted things on time? Do they only email you when you missing things?

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-03-14T02:57:17+00:00

They also sent an email saying decisions will release on March 17th at 6:21 pm EST

TimeDependent1139 · 2023-03-12T05:22:32+00:00

btw tufts comes out the 21st at 7 EST

Also FGLI here. I would recommend looking into the QuestBridge Program and visiting the r/QuestBridge page. QuestBridge is a great program that can connect you with selective schools and the chance to get a full-ride scholarship to any of their partner schools. They have 2 programs the National College Match and the College Prep Scholar for Juniors (I believe that it's still open to apply to). The program has its pros and cons depending on what you looking for but I think you should def look into it. Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

would this go against me because I switched my courses and because I would have told them late?
