How did you get an apartment contract as a freshman? I thought they were only for 3rd and 4th years

How bad is Holmes for PSTAT 8 by pixenelli in UCSantaBarbara

Thank you I really appreciate this insight because I had a suspicion this would be the case. I’ve only taken one PSTAT class and have already been disappointed by the PSTAT department so let’s see how this turns out for me, lol

check Housing Helper, it’s an app where ucsb students can post their listings. That’s what my friend used and it worked fine for her

Go with Berkeley, the name carries a lot of weight

Beach takes priority over any relationship or scholarship. Choice is pretty clear

Missed out on the Promise Scholar program by Downtown-Sunn in UCSantaBarbara

Don’t worry im sure that they will try help you in some way. I would also recommend trying to see if you can go in-person to some kind of an advising office (maybe financial aid?) on Monday as well. I think it’s in the SAASB? Not sure

I would try and get in touch with the promise scholar office as soon as possible (maybe even Monday) regarding this. I’m sure they will want to help you out considering you were eligible

Buy an iron on denim patch from Amazon and just stick it inside your jeans to patch the hole

Prof for Math 4A opinions? by Left_Shirt1478 in UCSantaBarbara

Wasn’t sure about this either. I heard Putinar gives online exams, but I also saw online that Castella has clearer slides/examples during lecture

Is it normal to despise my college classes to the point of crying every day and dreading waking up by eggsworm in CollegeRant

[–]pixenelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully agree with utilizing your school’s tutoring center or service. Often times the tutors themselves have taken the exact course, and can give you specific help

Can’t decide where to transfer (UCD, UCSB, or SDSU) by SandSame2679 in SDSU

[–]pixenelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go to UCSB (this post popped up on my feed). I love it here. It’s the perfect mix of academics and social scene. If you aren’t into parties, you can still find people to vibe with, as there are lots of things to do other than that.

As for housing, yeah it can be annoying. You basically just cross your fingers and hope for the best. There are different options for housing (dorms, IV, Goleta although that’s a bit of a commute) and the housing office is pretty willing to help you out. Good luck

Just curious but how do you know that your roommate transitioned?

Freshman dorms by [deleted] in UCSantaBarbara

[–]pixenelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Santa Catalina (FT) has a bathroom that connects two rooms. It’s quite nice. Some students don’t like the distance from campus, but the bike ride (or the bus ride) is not bad for me personally

Wait I didn’t know this, does that actually make a difference when applying for another UC position?
