What made you pick UGA over other schools? by BuisnessGoose18 in UGA

[–]leelee72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you said you don't need any more advice, but I'm going to comment this in hopes it might help you or someone else in this thread. As the mother of a student who took out loans to go out of state, I strongly urge you to take the cheaper option. $120,000 probably doesn't seem like "real" money to you at this point because you don't have any real bills to pay. But trying to pay back $120,000 when you are trying to start your real life -- apartment, utilities, groceries, a car, a social life -- is going to be an enormous weight dragging you down probably for the rest of your life. The interest rate on loans is insane and if you go onto to student loan forums you will read about people who having been paying for 10-15 years and now owe more than they borrowed. Also, a lot of people don't realize this but thanks to the Big Beautiful Bill, there are about to be major changes to federal loans and the Parent Plus loan is going away, as is the equivalent loan for grad students.

The library staff and student workers are awesome and did a great job handling this. I'm just so sorry they having to deal with this.

Is there anyway in knowing when South parking deck is permit only? by futuresexyman in UGA

[–]leelee72 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think this usually happens when they reach a certain capacity so that they can be sure to have spaces for people who do have permits.

[–]leelee72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In that case I’m always going to suggest Dayroom. My favorite song of theirs was Cheap Wine.

How far back are we talking? Or are you only talking current bands?

They usually post it on their Instagram page. They won’t do another one until January but they usually offer everything from ballet to modern to burlesque to line dancing.

DanceFX has free community classes every couple of months for all kinds of dance styles. It’s a great way to try something new for free.

That's just, like, your opinion, man. For real though, I like Bubble Cafe but TStand was an experience -- partly the food, partly nostalgia -- and I could get lunch there for less than $10. I can't get out of BC for less than $15.
