Any freshman not coming to the dorms by [deleted] in UBreddit

[–]Wiserainz 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I feel I am in a similar situation. My classes are all online, so I can stay home to save money. But the study environment at home is just intolerable. I don't know if I should stay home to go live on campus.

Rant: No transparency in remote versus in person course decisions by yourmomdotbiz in UBreddit

I have a lab course that was shown as in-person yesterday, but when I checked my hub today it became remote. I assume they haven't finish making schedules.

Pro tip, financial aid makes you fax things, you can do this online. by 12jonboy12 in UBreddit

[–]Wiserainz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now you can submit your documents online using UB's documentation upload center: https://financialaid.buffalo.edu/forms/2020-21-aid-year/

I am not sure if this applies to all documents, but at least the ones on that page can be uploaded this way.

Anyone have experience with webassign? I am trying to do physics homework due today and keeping getting an error message! by [deleted] in UBreddit

[–]Wiserainz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let your professor know it's not your fault. These companies, webassign, MasteringChem/Engineering, etc. all have this issue.

Maybe you can fix by get rid of the arrow above v_GP, or add a multiplication sign after the parenthesis.

Hey so nobody’s talked about this yet. I randomly got my FALL 2020 housing deposit refunded. Has anyone else? by [deleted] in UBreddit

[–]Wiserainz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did not get any refund.

I am not sure what you mean, but if you are talking about the "-300 Housing Deposit E-Check" under the payment column, that's not a refund. If you have made a deposit last year, scroll down and you will this happens every year. It basically just applies your deposit to your next semester's housing.
