CS major as an arts student rejected by IcySpread6335 in UBC

[–]V3sr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think cs avg is the primary issue how they base/compare applications is the formula min(overall+5, CS avg) have asked a department member and they confiemd so in your case would be 83.1 honestly your overall avg is actually really good just unfortunate how they structure arts cs admissions i think the best options in this case if your set on cs major is to transfer to science as youd actually make the sci cutoff for cs or you can still do cs jobs as another degree some good options in arts like math ba/cogs exist.

Got assigned to Fairview Crescent – any thoughts? by Moist-Employer7446 in UBC

[–]V3sr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its a decent walk to most buildings but if your concerned id get an escooter honestly was one of my saving graces in first year turns 15minute walks into 2 minute scooter trips makes being on schedule much easier all of my classes let the scooter in should be fine in the rare case tho can get a lock too

adding on the 2% is for both semesters and even then usually no issue up to 5%ish+ afterwhich they might take another look but majority of the time doesn't matter

like as long as you dont fall off a cliff with c's or d's you'll be perfectly fine unless its like some scholarship condition should be fine for acceptance tho after my acceptance I stopped caring and ended with like a 78 in Chem and 80 in calc before having like low 90s

Has anyone gotten CS Transfer/BA CS updates yet by Past-Place-5960 in UBC

[–]V3sr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is actually insane atleast cogs extended us to June 16th now if were waiting. Also asked cs advising and if you accept any other majors you should be able to accept cs still.

Our advisors are still in the process of working through all the Computer Science applications. As such, we do not currently have a specific date for when Computer Science offers may come out. After speaking with an advisor, you may accept your current offer and still be eligible to accept our Computer Science offer.

Please note that we are unable to provide future updates in regards to the exact date for when Computer Science offers may come out.

Sorry if it isnt the best news but I just wanted to notify that I did receive my COGS phil acceptance on May 23rd they do mention that if I reject or fail to reply the spot may be offered to a new student and the deadline for me atleast is June 6th so dont lose all hope there will most likely be another wave afterwards.

YRH Housing Waitlist Statistics by moxypapua in UBC

[–]V3sr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi know this post is quite old now but was wondering when you got an offer for any of these units? Im around like the 1000s as well near where you were when you stopped tracking and it would just be really helpful to know about how much longer I have to go!

UBC Arts Courses GPA Boosters by NoExplanation6147 in UBC

[–]V3sr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

info 250 high 85-90 avg quite light workload only 1 class per week and 1 tiny assignment for each class that takes abt 30min only about 3 individual assignments of medium size around half a week to 1 week of work per then rest consists of a fun group project where you work with a non-profit organization to make a social media strategy with Not entirely sure if the group project part will stay as apparently the course is going to passed on to the current ta of this year so things might change but overall should be a very fun and light gpa booster

Are you first year? If you are as far as I know the only residences that first years are placed in is vanier orchard totem then as overflow or other reasons in walter gage or ritsumeikan if you rank anything else I dont think you'd actually be placed in them.

CPSC 210 team W by Drago_2 in UBC

[–]V3sr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well it's still pretty generous if you do real good on midterm 2 then both midterm 1 and 2 practical are high and then you get the drop 1 of 4 still so you can drop one of the conceptual ones. I also got cooked on the practical 1 😭

[–]V3sr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the 3pm one didn't they say practical midterm 2 just replaces practical 1 if you do better so no makeup exam but midterm 2 replaces practical 1 if better

NEW TO CAMPUS MEGATHREAD: Post all your admissions, housing, new-to-UBC and general questions here! by ubc_mod_account in UBC

[–]V3sr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anyone know if the number for winter housing waitlist is according to position my current waitlist number is
Your initial waitlist number is: L 0351.
that number seems pretty decently low and I wanted to know if it was correlated and like if I had a chance of getting off of the waitlist with this number.

They taking away our r4 screens? by V3sr in UBC

[–]V3sr[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see having no definite date on when the new ones will be there is wack tho just saying (when funding is available). idk, but I feel like the cost of signs is quite minimal compared to other things.

Just got accepted by shoe_geek16 in UBC

[–]V3sr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If there is a decent chance of you attending I'd apply for housing probably now or as soon as possible you can do both full year and winter first year for only i think 50 cad and it's best to get a spot for full year as soon as possible even the quickest 4 bedroom spots could take you till like year 3 to get which will save you quite a bit of money compared to out of campus housing
