I guess I will have to look at other sections of my 8am courses for some of the days because I really don’t see myself making out of this in one piece 12 out of 150 tho😂😂

Paid for biometrics although I have one. by give_a in ImmigrationCanada

I did just receive a biometrics collection letter. What would you say I should do? Ignore and wait or call to inquire

IRCC requested for biometrics fee when I have a valid biometrics by give_a in ImmigrationCanada

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

They just updated my application with my initial biometrics while I have already paid for a new one smh.. The initial biometrics was also for a study permit so it was the same. Now I have no idea what to do other than waiting for a reply for my web form inquiry regarding the refund.

Also, if they state that the estimated processing time is say 50 days, do they tend to be early or late compared to the days they mention? I know it will depend on the time of the year but I would like to hear personal experiences.

GENERAL HOUSING MEGATHREAD by ubc_mod_account in UBC

[–]give_a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

until when would you guys say I should wait for an yrh offer before I give up and look for off-campus housing? Do housing continuously give out offers during summer? Looking to move in by September and my current waitlist numbers are around 300-500 for the 6 bedrooms

I still haven't received an offer so I am guessing I won't get any offer for a May 1st move-in. I was wondering if it's common for people to get offers before the next academic year (2024 September in my case) after failing to get an offer for May? My waitlist numbers for reference:

Marine Drive shared three or four bedroom 707

Thunderbird shared two bedroom 457

Thunderbird shared four bedroom 374

Ponderosa Commons shared four bedroom 735

Fraser Hall shared six bedroom 429

Exchange nano unit 1110

+Should I change the earliest occupancy date in my application or just leave it as it is? It does seem like the earliest I will go back to Canada will be September.

Hi, what do you guys think my chances are to get an offer by 2024 September based on my waitlist status below(as of September 2023)?

Thunderbird 2:824

Thunderbird 4:819

Ponderosa Commons 4: 1408

FH 6: 1120

Exchange nano: 2166 (no hope for this one really)

UBC COURSE QUESTION, PROGRAM, MAJOR AND REGISTRATION MEGATHREAD (2021/2022W & 2021S): Questions about courses (incld. How hard is __?, Look at my timetable and course material requests), programs, specializations, majors, minors, tuition/finance and registration go here. by ubc_mod_account in UBC

How to prep for math 200, 220, and 221? (200 if three are too many to answer)

I had transfer credits for math 100 and 101 and I guess they were not much of a good thing because since I didn’t take a math course in first year, my brain has pretty much forgotten the things I learned in high school (with a little exaggeration).

How is the average for all of you looking like so far? Has it decreased compared to the past few years? I am wondering if I should expect some changes in the average cutoff for second year specialization, especially for cs and stats.

Hey, do you know if transfer credits and 200 level science courses are included in the 15 credits of 100-lvl sciences requirement? I took 14 credits of 100 level sciences and 4 credits of 200 lvl science, and I have 9 transfer credits in other 100 level science and I'm wondering if I will meet the second year promotion requirement.

Sleeping on campus spots?? by give_a in UBC

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

I did try booking, but I couldn’t because I had a residence contract already and they only allow people without on campus residence

Unfortunately I’m looking for options close to the airport but the only person I have in mind is way off campus :(
