What's the catch with these deals?

Hey everyone,

I’m looking at the Mint Mobile device deals (https://www.mintmobile.com/devices/), specifically bundling a new phone like the Galaxy S26/S26 Ultra with the 12-month Unlimited plan to get the instant savings.

Before I pull the trigger, I wanted to ask those who have bought a phone through Mint:

• What's the catch? Are there any hidden fees or strings attached to getting the advertised discount?

• Has anyone bought a device through them recently? Did you have any issues with activation or billing?

• What happens after 60 days? I know Mint's policy says phones are locked to their network initially. Do they reliably unlock the phone after the 60-day mark?

Would appreciate any warnings or real-world experiences. Thanks!

Incoming CS Freshman Fall Schedule -- Need some advice please!

Hey everyone! This is my schedule and I just had a few quick questions since the time tickets have opened:

  1. 7:30 AM PSY: Is it as brutal as people say? Worth trying to swap to a later slot, or are those sections usually full?
  2. 3 - 6 PM Block (MWF): How exhausting is doing ECON, CS, and MA back-to-back?
  3. Mid-day gap: Any tips for staying productive during that massive 7-hour gap on MWF?
