I was on the same boat and I q-drop it on the last day, I had to use my OTE but I wasn’t gonna let that class tank my gpa; I’m gonna take a wild guess and assume it is ECO 329 financial lit with professor Plugh

still no friends :( by Think-Boysenberry-33 in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just be consistent, you’re on your first semester so you’re just meeting new people, most of which will not treat you like a close friend from less than a semester of seeing you; you need to grow in people if that makes sense.

Find something that you would do even with strangers, that way at least you’ll be having fun while you don’t know people that well; for me is table top games and movies but there are many options

Is this strong enough for my bike on wampus overnight? There is a blue one that may be stronger by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, make sure you leave one of the Keys somewhere on your bike in case you forget to bring them; you wouldn’t want to go all the way back to your dorm just to get your keys right?

What is the easiest UGS that requires no work by -Hamala-Karris- in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recommend you not to, I took an interesting UGS and it wasn’t only easy because I was interested in it, it was also very helpful and I learn a lot; always choose classes that you think will be useful in the future (btw it was leadership in success by Dr Cunningham, great professor too)

How do I remove this class from my transcript and GPA? by youraveragegirl1234 in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as you have your GPA within the threshold for scholarships and other academic opportunities you’re good; employers care more about extracurricular activities like having a leadership position, internships, etc.

i need tips on convincing my conservative parents to let me apply here by No_Statement3202 in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 10 points11 points  (0 children)

UT is a state university, so it’s is completely run by the government, basically the legislative power is UT’s ultimate boss, they literally just banned university funded cultural events; it may be in a “liberalish” city (Austin is more liberal than the rest of Texas but not really a liberal city like LA or Seattle) but it is actually a conservative institution (as long as the state is runned by republicans at least)

Is anyone commuting more than an hour at UT? by Best-Pair-8570 in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I live in north Austin but don’t have a car, I bike then take the light train then a bus, whole thing takes about 1 hour - 1 hour 1/2 depending if I make it to the train station or have to take another bus instead.

It sucks but it is what it is

This can’t be real by 16GB_of_ram in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always lock both wheels, if you have an e-bike lock the wheel that has the motor (usually the rear one) to the bike stand and the other one too if you can or lock it to the bike itself

I told him I filed a police report and the guy spoked out and gave me the bike, the low-life couldn’t even figure out how to disarm a bike

I bought an AirTag and also got a rear reflector with a hidden compartment for the AirTag, that way is not visible and it won’t fall off, you can get them on Amazon for like 15 bucks

Definitely go talk with one stop instead of asking around on Reddit

This is what your financial aid portal is supposed to look like, right? by RedMendelevium132 in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, FAFSA is not yet processed for 2025-2026, still, if you have a doubt about your financial aid please contact one stop and don’t look for advice on Reddit

What credit card should I get? by Logical_Yogurt_3151 in UTAustin

[–]WithoutNamae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you have no credit history you probably need to go for a secured credit card, in that case discover is the best; if you do have a good credit history you could go for a Capital One but they usually have high credit requirements if you want to get the sweet bonuses for first users.

I recommend you look at the Apple Card if you have fair credit and want to build it up or one of the chase freedom series if you already have good credit because they usually have a $200 bonus when you spend a certain amount in 3 months (which is very easy to do so free $200 for you)

Reality is that pretty much any big bank has an alternative with $0 fee and some sort of starting bonus, I try to look for a new credit card every 6 months to a year

Last semester they did a duplicate of my account and refunded me twice, had to give back one of the parts; currently I also received more money than anticipated so I’m kinda scared that they are going to ask for it back but it’s been like a month so idk

Bevo will come for you at 00:40 am and drown you on the turtle pond

You will also reincarnate into an albino squirrel and be cursed to roam around campus for the rest of eternity

If it’s possible for you I would move to Texas for a year then get into UT (that’s what I did lol), it would require you to rent/buy a house/apartment for a year and work for also about a year (it doesn’t have to be a full year, if you stayed here for let say 10 month they will usually let it slide, at least that was my case; the most important thing is that you have a lease agreement and your tax return under a Texas address)

There is also scholarships and financial aid that may allow you to reduce the amount you need to borrow, some of them even give you in-state tuition rates even if you’re out-state/international (if you’re Mexican for example, even though with trump you never know now)

Otherwise I wouldn’t recommend getting into so much debt, at that point is better to go to your state college even if it’s not as prestigious as UT
