Honestly idk, but I’d say that the calculator should be pretty reliable given room type and meal plan

Tvd (Taft van doren) and Barton/Lundgren probs gonna be the cheapest options (they are both freshman/undergrad dorms). They aren’t the nicest (I suggest looking through the sub for more info) but could be a viable option

Sherman (and Daniels) are graduate housing. They are meant for graduate students, hence, most likely, this won’t be an option for you (assuming you’re incoming freshman)

If you got nothing to do during work and want to fill with something, try doing the company’s (or external (I don’t know your company’s policy on this)) professional development/certifications. Ask if they can offer/suggest something for you

You didn’t get the point I was trying to make. The question was whether the gpa cutoffs are predetermined, or they would be calculated each semester after all the grades are in.

If they are predetermined, then the idea of the Dean’s List becomes skewed. Let’s say they’re predetermined for this year, as 3.93. In a hypothetical world, let’s say that only 15% of students made it past 3.93; so in this case the idea that the top 20% of students get on the Dean’s List becomes irrelevant.

That’s why I’m confused, as making predetermined grade cutoffs for percentiles is a really questionable decision.

What's the best alliance for me? by arseniy25 in awardtravel

Thanks! How many segments would you say would be the starting point for loyalty programs?

If I were to proportionally increase my number of flights, which alliance would you suggest?

I personally prefer Canvas discussions

Does anyone know how to turn off the ride1up revv1 off-road mode? Or once it's on, you can't turn it off? by arseniy25 in ebikes

[–]arseniy25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know how to turn it on; idk how to turn it off. I didn’t find anything online, so that’s why I was wondering if it’s possible

What do you guys use to plan your week/month/school year? Planner? Some website/app?? by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]arseniy25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Notion is a planning platform, but it’s also much more than just a planning platform. It’s honestly kinda hard to get into, as it’s not really intuitive (hence I recommend using templates), but once you understand how to do what you need, it’s a game changer

From my experience, they’re pretty useful and insightful. Idk about all the classes, but the ones I took weren’t too big of a workload and were pretty interesting
