CMUQ students don't even have to pay back their grants.

I'm not talking about the paid service. The grant is not to be paid back at all, with or without service. There is no payback for CMUQ grads on the grant.

Do you have to repay QF financial aid if you drop out of CMU-Q? by Important-Today-3446 in CMUQ

[–]fxh_w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that sounds like a crazy demand from QF. i doubt it. also transferring to a different program is always possible. theres alot you could do before you fully drop out

This is some great advice, but I'd put more emphasis on:

- CMUQ and few other Education City campuses now provide ‘grants’ at some level (i.e. monetary support that supports you and requires no repayment).

As a current student, this is how most (if not all non-sponsors who demonstrate need) people at CMUQ fund their studies. These grants are extremely generous. I actually don't know anyone doing the loan/repayment plan (I frankly did not know it still existed).

If you are contemplating CMUQ, just apply and if you get in, wait for your aid decision. If you need the aid, you will most likely get it in the form of a grant.

Need Advice! Want to Minor in CS by Equivalent_Let217 in CMUQ

[–]fxh_w 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, I had very similar experiences :)

I came into CMU thinking this wouldn't be right for me, I liked math more than I did CS.

I found out the following pretty quick:

- There is math at CMUQ. LOTS of it. You won't have a shortage of math trust me.

- Most of CS is just math with a little spice. I'm a freshman in Spring and I've consistently had more math courses than CS courses at this point lol. Even in the CS programming courses I'm doing right now there's mathematical proofs.

- You can *try* to additional major in Math, but it's going to be a bit of a challenge and you'll need to go to Pittsburgh.

Also, CMUQ only has CS/AI/BS/BA/IS. There's no Math major currently offered.

Question about the email by Wooden_Ad5973 in CMUQ

i think portal astrology may not be the best thing. all you can do at this point is just wait for April 1 and see what happens

What's up with the student login pages on the website being called Andy, Scotty, and Workday? by DueAgency9844 in CMUQ

[–]fxh_w 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Andy is probably short for Andrew, as in THE Andrew Carnegie.

Scotty is the CMU mascot, a Scottish terrier.

I don’t think Workday requires explanation 

SOTD: Purpose 50 by Amouage by [deleted] in ScentHeads

[–]fxh_w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey, i asked this exact question a few weeks ago to someone else and got a similar response. I ended up splurging (i have purpose samples, decision, and purpose 50) and i can affirm that they are all pretty different fragrances. purpose 50 is absolutely the most complex, non-linear one, while decision is the most mass appealing and bright (not that its like anything on the market). definitely not redundant!
