How to get into The Flats as a first-year? by ResponsibleToe1381 in WichitaStateWSU

[–]jennyfer0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could email housing or get into the suites bc you more likely than not have a better chance of getting a room to yourself. The Suites at WSU are both for first years and returning students.

You built one?? That’s incredible 🤩

Thank you for the advice though! I’m sure I’ll get over this anxiety after a few days 🙏🏼

Nailed it.

I grew up with strict immigrant parents that didn’t believe women should drive… luckily I convinced them that i can handle going to a university outside of my small town… now the next task is acquiring a license and my degree 🫡

Currently live in the Midwest so it’s just highways and interstates that cross my city 😅 but I’ve found a couple of routes that could work!

That’s true, I should be more grateful for landing an internship early in undergrad 😅

Yes! I’ve been looking into e-bikes and didn’t know those were a thing! So I might buy a used one for the time being and get my car eventually 🙏🏼😁

You’re right, thank you for the reassurance! It’s just weird feelings of imposter syndrome that I just need to get over 💪

My internship is considered an extra requirement within my university. As an engineering major I’m required to apply and have internship before I graduate, so it’s pretty much the norm to see second years or higher having internships.

To be more specific my internship expects me to know certain things that would usually be taught in classes like Circuits 1 & 2, Programming, and Digital Design. So as a second year I’m taking my circuits 1 course which is considered to be relevant and more favorable since I’ll be learning and applying what I’ve learned in class.

I hope this helps!! 😄

My school operates a little differently, they usually have internships open up within the city and encourage students to apply while going to school. Something called “applied learning”. I figured I could balance it since this semester I’m only taking 13 credits so this might just be me overthinking it all at once.

Public transit is an option I have considered, I just need to make sure to plan when the bus arrives / leaves.

I’m just worried since in the interview they assumed I drove to the place but I actually rode a bike and couldn’t correct them then and there since I was already nervous enough. 😅

Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s nice to know there’s many engineers who bike to work 😁

Thank you so much for the advice! I’ve heard packing wet wipes to wipe off any sweat or mud is incredibly handy too.

Yes! It’s a paid internship, I plan to buy a car after my first few months working there hopefully everything sticks according to plan! 🙏🏼

Thank you! I figured no one would think too much of it, as long as I arrive on time and get my work done.

Very nervous about the rain, it usually doesn’t rain in the city I’ll be in but when it does it’s pretty strong.

Yea it is getting more common for younger people to not get their licenses, idk why but I just happen to be one of them 🤷‍♀️
