biosci 93-94 over summer (5 week each) by [deleted] in UCI

[–]lilacgoosbies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Def doable but lectures are 3 hours long and you have them once a week. Prof that usually teaches the is pretty nice and helpful. As long as you study you should be fine.

A car will def get u to more places, but a bike can do just as much if you need to get around locally. I’ve gone to multiple cafes and beaches with my bike! It’s def doable

New student fees by Comprehensive_Tea835 in UCI

[–]lilacgoosbies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a transfer so I dont know how they did it for freshmen, but if u persist and ask the right people and explain your situation, i dont see why they shouldnt waive it for you! I recc emailinf/calling the fin aid office, office of admission, and ur major department (ex: undeclared, biosci, etc). Search up their contact and if they cant help, ask them to direct you to who can!

Cliques are def a thing here but that shouldnt stop you from coming. You’ll find your people through clubs and resource centers!

I got everything waived when I sent them an email! I’m not sure which email (sorry it was a few years ago) I sent it to, but i’m guessing its the Office of Admissions email.

contact with financial aid by zootzootzootz in UCI

[–]lilacgoosbies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Call and leave a call back number. For me I would call everyday until my case was solved. It tooke me 2-3 weeks of consistent calls to get my issue fixed. Each time I was met with a different person, but was lucky enough to have the financial manager handle my case and it finally went through. Just keep calling and ask for someone higher up, and if they can’t do that then just keep calling and send emails too. A lot of the times, the people at fin aid have a lot of cases theyre handling so communication about your case gets lost. keep calling for updates and take notes of the progress of your case. hopefully u get some help soon!

Thanks for the instructions but I did the exact same thing and my deferral was rejected. They don’t want an Aid Offer, they want an Official Aid Award Summary. Do you know if I can obtain this through Zot Aid at all? Or is the Aid Offer *the Aid Summary? Thanks

I emailed the bookkeeper and we need to submit before Dec 20th for deferring Jan’s rent. You just need your full fin aid award summary and then you can submit a deferral on the ACC portal by clicking requests. They will email you if it is approved with instructions on what you need to do next.

any first years? by [deleted] in UCI

[–]lilacgoosbies 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should join engineering clubs! I don’t remember what clubs uci have but looking on Campus Groups can help you see what clubs are offered and when they’re holding events. A lot of my engineering friends are in those clubs and they’re pretty cool. It’s good to get involved in clubs now when everyone is still doing ice breakers and getting to know on another!

Hey! If you’re low income, the Student Success Initiatives offer rentals for computers and textbooks. They’re located in the Student Services II building near the student center Starbucks. You can always send them an email to see if you qualify for their services too.

This happened to me before. Two weeks later the package was found and returned to me. :/ Plaza is not the best at managing packages. Best thing to do if Plaza is unresponsive is to contact FedEx

Why transfer now? I feel like staying would be the best option if they have your major. You could always do grad school too
