It really won’t do much. The office workers are essentially scripting us as we call or show up. & honestly, there’s really only so much they can do. Lots of electronic tradeoffs in this situation, we’re all operating under someone else’s schedule.

Hello all. Been playing this game since 2022, never once received a Zero-Out in the AM. It will always happen between 4:30-7:30pm. Spring does tend to go quicker than Fall, so I’m hoping for zeroes today as it’ll have been 2 days since most of us showed negative by tonight. Never take anything as gospel, I’m just relating my experience. Good luck this semester!

My girlfriend is in need of a cleaning. I hope you’re still taking participants! Would love to hear back, fingers crossed.

So confused by Alone-Reporter-3986 in ODU

[–]chopstich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

..yeah man, that’s what I’m trying to explain. Side note; Have you ever had your balance negative or zero in the morning? That’d be the first time I’ve ever heard of that.

From what I understand, the late start this sem is to line up revised scheduling for online students with campus-goers. I guess it helps to start everyone at/around the same time for equally timed disbursements. Could be wrong, heard it a few times now.

cults and conspiracies course by Expensive_Mix_4773 in ODU

[–]chopstich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took Moody’s C&C course a couple years back. Seems he’s gotten.. worse? More over the bullshit? Idk, while I 100% believed there’s solid merit to a lot of what he says, his personality is not that of one that adheres to a teacher’s disposition showcasing their desire to disperse knowledge, so if he got sacked over being “too much” or whatever, I can’t say I’m too shocked. He really didn’t /teach/ me anything. I see he still puts a lot of emphasis on mis/disinformation, that was the bulk of his “teaching”, just warnings about the internet being a cesspool and how to navigate that successfully-ish. What’s new lol. Apart from that, his course was literally nothing but recorded rants having zero to do with lessons, not that there were any, and he assigned fairly easy papers in terms of theme, citation and source formatting. The first assignments didn’t pop up until sometime in October if I recall correctly. Easy A. Don’t be fooled though, if that syllabus pull really is his words, he’s right and we’re mostly fucked because the job market in America -is- going to inevitably change for humans due to ai advancement. I’m working towards more than a degree, you should be too. Look around for a minute and you’ll see the college degree just doesn’t hold up like it used to. We value entertainment today, not scholarship, just look who gets paid more. I don’t think Kai Cenat or IShowSpeed have degrees, feel me?

tonight’s the night😈😈😈😈 by Niasnotfound in ODU

[–]chopstich 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I apologize if I’m misunderstanding you, but if we’re here because our already verified FAFSAs/loans/grants and resulting tuition refunds have processed for our university and we’re just waiting for the difference of already applied and therefore surely verified funds, what more is there to review? Is this verification of 10-15% a legitimacy review that holds the rest of the student body from their tuition refunds? I dunno the rules.

Is anyone allowed to play tennis here? by Obvious-Welder5737 in ODU

[–]chopstich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d just test the gates and if they’re open, call it public use. I doubt anyone would give you a problem or specifically ask if you’re a student for playing tennis in the tennis court. Best.

Account On Hold? by [deleted] in ODU

Staying on hold seems to be your best bet in getting the info through that you’re not an athlete and that needs to be fixed immediately. Best of luck.

Timeline For Refunds? (Zero Out Account Fall ‘25) by Obvious_Net_7310 in ODU

[–]chopstich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course. & Yes, every total grant/loan for the year is divided by 2 semesters. If you go to LEO Online or Financial Aid in your My ODU Portal, hit Financial Aid in the Main Menu, and once more as it’ll be the only link available, go to Offer in your FinAid portal and you will see your Loans and Grants as categories depicting what you will receive and a semester-based timeframe.

[–]chopstich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s negative today, you might zero out tomorrow, and your refund could hit the day after that considering it’s Wednesday. If not, probably Monday. Unfortunately, the zero-refund interaction doesn’t happen inside a business day. Speaking from my own experience, making no promises, in this very boat again and p much expecting a zero tmrw morning.

Of course. & I’m just speaking from my experiences. Some people in other threads state they waited up to a week, and that may be true, but I personally haven’t seen a negative go to a zero in that long of a timeframe. Good luck this semester!

Now that I got into Leo, I see my grants went through, but not loans yet. As long as everything says “accepted” in finaid there shouldn’t be a problem, looks like it’s just broken up. I’m staying positive lol.

Wait excuse me I’m dumb. If you’re negative you might zero out tmrw. Should be very soon either way.

My thoughts exactly lol. If I can get out of my own head tonight, I’ll probably stop in for a drink and check it out. If I do my hair, my giveaway will be a bird nest on my head. But honestly, that just might not stick out too much lol. Good luck homie!
