does anybody have this class this semester with instructor Arbogast? were you able to catch the assignments on canvas before they took it away? class starts Thurs. they accidentally put out the assignments yesterday for a second lol

HONORLOCK SUCKSSSS

So I was one of the first people to sign up for this class and was removed today, Monday the 17th. I’m pretty upset about it and no one is getting back to me. There aren’t any other classes that I need for my major in session A and this will affect my scholarship and financial aid. Has this happened to anyone else?? What have you done? I’m freaking out a bit right now.

Hey everyone, I have a problem and I don’t know what to do.

For some reason I have a federal loan discharged due to disability form on my my ASU account but I’ve never had any loans discharged nor do I have a disability so I’m very confused as to why this is on my account. I’ve been reaching out to financial aid and ASU’s Helpdesk, but to no avail because they either won’t answer and the few times they have answered they just tell me that I don’t have any loans discharged and that they’re confused as well as to why I have that on my account.

The only reason I can guess is because my dad was the co-signer of my parent plus loans when I was in undergrad at a completely different college. He died last year so maybe that could be what triggered it but I’m still not sure. This is holding up the processing of my aid and classes start next week. I have no idea what to do so I’m thinking of just signing the form anyway but I feel uncomfortable signing something that isn’t true so I’m lost.

TLDR- ASU put a disability loan discharge form on my account even though I’ve never had a disability or any loans discharged. Even financial aid doesn’t know why it’s there, and it’s holding up my aid with classes starting next week. I’m tempted to sign it just to get my aid processed, but I don’t want to sign something that isn’t true.

Has anyone received a degree conferral with updated transcripts showing the degree has been awarded? I graduated on Aug 11 and wanted to see how long this usually takes.

Where can I find this info? I have the session costs but I need the class prices specifically for tuition reimbursement through my employer. I checked MyASU and my shopping carts but couldn’t find it there. I reached out to my success coach for direction in hopes of avoiding FA but need to submit these sooner rather than later. Thanks!

i am a new online student to ASU, i am located in another state. what are some tips you can give me as a first time online student. is there any school supplies you bought that help better manage your school work? any advice is appreciated

Has anyone had any luck with getting a response via email? If so, how long did it take? I send an email August 11, 2026, 05:31 AM MST and it’s still marked new. I get it’s busy but classes start Thursday 😩

Has anyone scholarship been dispersed yet? Mine has not.

I'm working as procurement, mostly electrical products. My city has many major American oil companies like Chevron, ExxonMobil, and many others. I believe my chances of acceptance will be better because it's an international and global university, while my city has universities with poor rankings

I would like to know :

1- what the advantages and rewards are if I get high grades during bachelor?

2-What is the total cost for one academic year?

3- What things should you advise me to do?

4- If you have more information, it would be best if you told me about it :)

I’m looking for guidance or advice regarding my major. I’ve been reading that it is non licensure and you basically can’t do anything with it unless you get a PhD. I’m not entirely sure what’s true and what’s not. My advisors haven’t been exactly helpful and I’m feeling super discouraged and want to hear others real life experiences… I just changed majors from Applied business in technology at WP Carey and it feels like an entirely different experience at New College. I’ll graduate next Summer. Please be nice 😭

I’m looking at online colleges to get my BA in Psychology next year. I’m finishing my AAT next summer and hadn’t considered online to be a possibility. Would love to hear how it was for previous or current students!

Mine is still on ASU review and approval, I still haven't even been given any options to approve or deny. Is it just me?

Okay, a lot of people are posting about changes to your federal aid or scholarship. Here is the reality: No One Here Can Help You With Your Specific Situation. Why? Because no one has been in this situation before.

In 2025, Congress passed H.R. 1, which made earthshattering changes to a 40+-year-old federal student aid program. AND instead of being smart and spending the past year getting everyone ready for it, the Department of Ed (or the three monkeys sharing two typewriters still there) basically waited until the last possible moment to send out ANY guidance. Of course, this guidance was wrong, had to be reviewed, etc.

It also meant that every university, thier cousin, their cousin's lawyer, their lawyer, etc., had to determine what it meant, absent any actual guidance.

The major post I am seeing all fall into one of these major changes:

1. Now, students attending less than full-time can receive smaller federal loans. Federal subsidized and unsubsidized loans are now prorated according to enrollment.
2. For new graduate borrowers, Graduate PLUS loans have been eliminated. New graduate borrowers have a $20,500 annual unsubsidized-loan limit and a $100,000 graduate aggregate limit. Some professional programs have different limits (for now, this is going through the courts)
3. Parent PLUS loans are now capped for new borrowers. Parents are generally limited to $20,000 per year and $65,000 total instead of being able to borrow up to the full remaining cost of attendance.
4. Pell Grant eligibility changed. Students with an Aid Index of $14,790 or higher generally cannot receive a Pell Grant, with limited exceptions. The law also changed how certain foreign income is treated in determining Pell eligibility.

So, your best bet remains to wait to connect with ASU Financial Aid. Some may revert back, some may change as new guidance is issued, and we are nowhere near out of the woods yet.

Yes, it sucks. Yes, there could have been better communication. However, the university could basically say, 'we have no idea,' which doesn't exactly instill confidence and would result in even more emails.

And also take anything here with the understanding that people are basing it on their prior experience, which is 95% of the time no longer correct.

The above doesn't even handle how scholarships are treated differently, etc.

Edit: Since a few people asked, no, I do not work for financial aid. I do work for ASU, though.

Guys, I’ve got a question. I was a pretty bad student in high school, so I decided to go with the Earned Admission option. I wanted to get a degree in Software Engineering, and I completed 12 credits with a 4.0 GPA. My goal was to double major in Software Engineering with neuroscience for medical school.Contrary to my plans,ASU gave me a Neuroscience acceptance rather than Software Enginnering,how can i jump into software enginnering department,any advice?

I qualify for a Pell grant that’s supposed to be applied before my loans but just yesterday I checked & it never came up? I saw my loans covered almost everything of mine so I got nothing refunded to me. I use those refunds to make payments on my loans & purchase books for the semester.
Idk how or why this happened but I am livid. This is FAR from the first time ASU has royally fucked up my finances & it takes literal months to fix…
I already emailed the financial aid office but what else can I do? Has anyone else had this happen?

Any & all experience/advice is a
