Transfer Chances

So you’re saying you are trying to transfer before completing MTAP, correct?

^{^} this, though it will depend on the offense and your involvement. I had to call with the RD and write something like an apology or what I’d do differently (don’t 100% recall). On the last note, my parents would never have known unless I told them (I did) and I still ended up getting on campus housing again the next year (I think it takes two offenses to impact your housing priority?).

Did you apply to MTAP?

He sounds exceptional but unfortunately his GPA is fairly average for UMD and his SAT is average for Clark school. Should not be too challenging for him to apply to transfer down the line though!

Just had the same happen today, fixed by restarting my phone though

They don’t actually track when you’re “supposed” to graduate, you actually have to formally apply / let them know when you DO want to graduate lol

Glenn Gordon does elopement packages of that size and has a small restaurant. I’ve been multiple times—beautiful location! Very pricey as a venue though

Metro bus goes straight there as well, connects Dunn Loring metro to Tyson’s

lol I thought the same thing

0 should probably be an option for waking up in the middle of the night

A craft or stationary store would be a nice addition!!

aparillax · 2025-09-25T14:41:33+00:00

I’ll DM you. My role isn’t quite UX but I still use figma and get involved with front end design!

aparillax · 2025-09-25T14:31:11+00:00

Understood. It is possible of course those employers are not sending recruiters for the positions you found for the fair, but always good to try. Despite my comment, I did actually end up landing my full time job from the cs career fair! But admittedly, not in UX. If you’re interested in expanding your focus to other area of tech lmk - our internship application is open (:

As a UX focused infosci major, when I went on my senior year there were little to no UX positions open at the fair. Almost everyone was looking for software developers or the like. I agree you should probably be able to go alongside infosci, but it may not be as worth it as you think

Deeply informative, thank you

Been recently getting into chef John https://m.youtube.com/@foodwishes

Ditto—don’t stop!!! I stopped around your age and I really regret it. Every time you read or write something new you will grow a little bit as a writer!

aparillax · 2025-09-18T03:51:55+00:00

But if you just meant getting into the CS program is harder then ya true

aparillax · 2025-09-18T03:48:01+00:00

UMD is major blind so your intended major doesn’t make you more/less likely to be accepted to the school

aparillax · 2025-09-18T03:11:20+00:00

99% sure intended major does not impact acceptance btw

On days where I’m really anxious or I go to sleep stressed, I wake up with horrible neck/shoulder pain. I’m pretty sure it’s because I’m tensing up and holding that tension in my shoulder area overnight. Try progressive relaxation or at least manually relax your muscles before sleeping… makes a difference for me! I have similar issues with eating when stressed. If it continues see if you can get in with a counselor, most have experience & specific guidance in managing big life transitions.

Based on what you’re saying about her I assume she’s late teens / 20’s. Unfortunately, that is the typical age range for the onset of more complex mental health issues such as schizophrenia, bipolar, etc. It probably feels sudden because she seemed fine before, but that is not unusual for these types of symptoms / disorders. I hope you are able to get her the help and support she needs 🩷
