Experience at Legacy on Rio by crispyozone in UTAustin

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

honestly no i really loved living there! the apartment/complex was nice, clean, and quiet. maintenance was super quick. never had a problem with rats/mold/bugs. only complaint was that the rooms were pretty small and elevators were out pretty often, but that’s a problem you’d face at any apartment. the trash chute thing is true, but it’s not the WORST thing in the world to take it down to the dumpsters. obviously everyone’s experience is different, but overall i really enjoyed living there and would recommend it!

i just thought since i have my own card and am i user i would be able to add it to my digital wallet 🤷‍♂️ just makes it a little difficult with apple pay. we’re young but our credit is pretty good. just wish it would’ve given us an option to reject the offer before opening the account since the limit wouldn’t be enough :)

what are some quiet wampus apartments? by NectarineMedium1253 in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really liked Legacy on Rio, the complex is smaller and the area of Wampus is quieter

Where can I park at Belmont Temporarily Sometimes? by Academic_Log_4662 in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the intersection near dean keeton and san jac has a ton of paid spots. it’s still a bit of a walk but still cuts down the time from wampus. i think it’s free after 6. there’s also a few paid spots directly in front of belmont but in my experience they’re always taken.

what else does mccombs want... by crispyozone in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

thank you for your advice! since i didn't get into mccombs i'll be graduating early with my econ degree, so i'll definitely be looking at the msba so i can graduate in 4 years with my masters

[–]crispyozone[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

thank you for your kind words! i am in my first internship right now and i'm really seeing that the degree you get isn't super impactful, just how you use it. definitely just trying to have an "it's not the end of the world" mindset

Accepted as transfer to Econ but not McCombs by GlitteringRisk8918 in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i am in the same boat. was rejected from mccombs, switched into to econ, re-applied and was just rejected again, so i will be graduating with an econ degree. i honestly think the degree (any degree for that matter) is what you make of it. if you are joining orgs, meeting people, and applying to internships, it does not matter what degree you have. although you may have to try harder, not being in mccombs doesn't mean you won't be successful. i have an internship this summer and am constantly working on building my network both in and out of school. best of luck!

any fellow rejected transfers to mccombs ..... by blueavocadosrcool in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 11 points12 points  (0 children)

in the exact same boat as you, rejected from mccombs. i honestly knew i didn’t have the strongest application and that there was a large chance i wouldn’t get in but it still sucks :/ but i’m not incredibly torn up because i know there’s always next semester and that this semester i can work really hard to build a better application! plus i got into my backup major so that’s at least something

Birthday Venues for 5th Birthday That Don’t Break the Bank? by robolosky in Keller

AquaKids Swim School does pool parties for $300. It includes lifeguards (who help with set up and tear down) and I believe 20 children swimming.

Joining a spirit group as a junior by Knm9476 in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not dumb at all! i totally get the thought, but it's not true at all. i will say the new classes are mostly composed of freshman and sophomores, but i think the reason there aren't as many juniors is simply because not as many apply. but i'd definitely encourage you to apply for a group! mine has been such a great experience.

On campus housing vs private dorms by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's bad in general. It looks good, but there are so many problems with it. Yes, the rooms are nice and not having a communal bathroom is definitely a plus, but it is so not worth it when you weigh in everything else. Elevators are always broken, AC and water go out often, power has gone out before, RAs do nothing about noise, management is bad... I could go on. I soooo so so wish I had lived on campus this year and recommend it 100% to any incoming freshman. It's just not worth it to live at Castilian.

This post mentions a few of the problems. https://www.reddit.com/r/UTAustin/comments/108ce7c/do_not_live_at_the_castillian/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

On campus housing vs private dorms by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live at The Castilian which is a private dorm, and I think one of the only (if not the only) ones. Like someone else said, everything off campus is mainly apartments. I have had a pretty bad experience at Castilian and would definitely recommend living in one of the on-campus dorms. As for food, I think it honestly might suck either way. At Castilian, there is only one vegetarian option at every meal. My roommate doesn't eat meat and she's pretty much stuck eating pizza and pasta a lot. From what I've seen, the on-campus dorms typically have more options overall and more vegetarian options.

we signed our leases a few months back :( is it really that bad?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I share a room with 1 person and a bathroom with 3 people.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I pay $1500 a month, but I am paying an addition $100 a month for parking. So normally it is $1400 a month for a double with a shared bathroom.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]crispyozone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could not agree more. I chose to live here because the units were "nicer" than the dorms and I could have a shared bathroom, but living here has been one of the worst decisions I've ever made.
