I have $2500 dollars dining dollars left to spend this semester and I don’t know how to spend it. I got first year limited so I figured it wouldn’t be an issue spending that much.
What expensive food places should I go to? Would it be better if I stock up on snacks instead?
Hey, so I'm a sophomore living in PCV. I recently heard that the Kratts brothers are coming to the PAC. I was excited and when the tickets came out I bought it with VIP. I've been watching them since I was really young and inspired me to study animal science. It's been my dream since I was young to meet them. The date for the show was Jan 22nd. Just a few days from move in and starting second semester. I thought it wouldn't be a problem to come in a bit early and be able to go to the show. I did more research however and apparently moving in early is not possible. I emailed housing and asking if it could be possible to move in early and they told me the earliest I could come in was Saturday the next day. Point it is I can't go to the show, I would have no where to stay and I am out of state. Hotels are expensive and I'm broke. So I'm wondering if anyone in the area would be interested in buying my ticket. I paid 168$ and I would like the full amount (btw the PAC do not issue refunds so thats why I'm on here) but if anyone is truly interested I'm willing to talk out a lower price. The show is Jan 21st 6:00pm. The VIP package includes a front row seat to the show, and after the show you get to meet, take a picture, and get an autograph from both of the brothers. I understand this is on me and poor planning. I'm just frustrated on the things I cannot control it would be nice this wasn't a complete loss and I can get some money back. Also if anyone has an suggestions on what I can do. Please let me know.
how thorough are pre-break room checks in pcv? if i have a bed skirt, will they look under it?
Hi! I’m a freshman at Cal Poly SLO majoring in Animal Science, but I’m thinking about switching to nursing and getting my BSN. I’m also interested in joining the military, specifically the Air Force or Army, and would like to learn about options that could help pay for school.
I’m just not sure where to start. Since I’m already at a good university, I don’t know if I should stay, finish my Animal Science degree while taking nursing prerequisites, or transfer somewhere with a nursing program. I want to figure out what’s realistic for me while also avoiding losing credits or spending more time and money than I need to.
My GPA isn’t finalized yet, so I’m still figuring out my options. Has anyone been in a similar situation? I’d really appreciate advice on what I should look into first!
I got a 4 on the AP Spanish exam in 2025, and according to the 2025 AP credit matrix, I should have credit for SPAN 201 and 202 on quarters, which as far as I'm aware, is basically equivalent to SPAN 2201 + a little bit more on semesters. Since SPAN 2201 now fulfills GE 3B, my AP credit should count toward this.
I did the GE petition thing but the vice provost rejected it because "applying credit in this way ensures equity among similar populations of students", but this implies the exact opposite???? Not giving credit for an equivalent course is what's inequitable. I emailed the office of the registrar evaluations unit and they were no help.
Is anyone else having this same issue?
Any recents graduates finding jobs? Who’s hiring professional career jobs? It feels like no one’s hiring. If you found a job, in what industry did you find a job? How long were you looking? Did you get a job through personal connections?
For those parents coming to campus this weekend for Parent Weekend. Be sure to ask the President, Provost and Deans why they want to shorten the academic year by two weeks per year starting next year.
That’s right, students will get two fewer weeks of instruction per year and you will pay the same tuition!
There is more to the plan like requiring students to live on campus and take classes in the summer and be off campus in the Fall.
The plan is known as Year Round Operations, YRO, and trust me, students and faculty are not on board.
People who took calc 2 as a freshmen and didn’t pass. What did you do after? Did you retake it next quarter? How’d it go then? Does your failing grade get replaced with your new grade if you passed the 2nd time?
Hi all, I’m currently a first year business administration student and I am planning on transferring to sociology. If you are or have been in the sociology program, please let me know how you have liked it and what job prospects you are thinking of post-graduation! Thank you!!!
Hey all, was super interested in woodshop/metalshop in high school, was pretty well versed in both, and also the basics of cad but not in programs like solidworks. I didn’t want to become an engineer but that stuff still really interests me and I really crave doing more hands on work and learning. Are there any courses that teach basic and intermediate cad like solidworks and or courses that you get to fabricate and design stuff in the metal and wood shops that don’t have a large amount of prerequisites?
I also know you can get shop certified and do it on your own, but I don’t trust myself to get out there on my own time as much as I would be required to in a class with my more time consuming hobbies and classes.
