State university grant

Have you guys received your state university grant yet? Last three years I’ve received Pell grant, state university grant and then middle class scholarship/sug coa grant. So far this year I’ve only gotten Pell grant, and it hasn’t even been disbursed yet. Student aid index still the same. You guys?

What's going on with financial aid

I've been reading on here that some people have already got their financial aid. I'm actually on a cruise ship right now so I can't receive my text messages so I can log into my SDSU account and check my financial aid. Has anybody gotten their money in their actual bank account yet? I'm starting to freak out? Thanks in advance.

Should my courses have been listed on canvas by now? I'm looking for what course materials I'll need.

I'm typically used to courses being posted a week before classes, so I can have the materials I need before class begins or use day1ready. Not sure how SDSU typically does it but my canvas is empty.

Schedule as a Civil Engineering freshman

Hey guys! I was just wondering what you guys thought of my schedule. I am a commuter so I know my 8AM is going to be hell, but I‘m hoping to make the most of it. I’m also going for less shifts as to not burn out.

I could’ve taken another Calc 1 class but there were going to be so many gaps in my schedule it was going to be around 5-7 hours on campus.

I‘m also looking for friends! I’m a civil engineer major (per the title lol) I’m a lesbian, I don’t party at all so I’m worried I won’t make friends, I‘m from Mexico and I speak 4 languages!!

Final semester. Issue with aid.

Can someone help me understand why I’m getting less aid this semester? I’m supposedly getting more aid next year when I won’t even be here anymore. I’m only taking 3 courses now but it’s never been this low before. Or should I just stack up more courses to get more money?

Middle Class Scholarship

Did anyone else not get their Middle Class Scholarship? I received it my last two semesters. From what I’ve researched, I should still be eligible to get that assistance for my two last semester’s. The only things showing up on my disbursements and the Subsidized and Unsubsidized Federal loans.

Not sure what step to take. I’ve been waiting in the Financial Aid Zoom lobby for more than 4 hours.

SDSU Alcohol Policy

So apparently, "possession or use of distilled liquor is prohibited on university property at all times." Ummmm...Eureka anyone? I'm confused?? Not that I'm complaining...just why have a full bar on campus if you have this policy? #alcohol #sdsu #policy

MATH 150 Prof

Hey guys. I’m trying to figure out which MATH 150 section I should take for fall and wanted to get some opinions.

I’m currently in Mark Dunster’s section, but I’ve seen some pretty mixed/bad reviews and I’m wondering if Colin McGrane would be better.

The sections that fit my schedule are:

Dunster

  • M/W/F: 1:00–1:50
  • T/Th: 9:30–10:20

McGrane

  • M/W/F: 8:00–8:50
  • M/W: 10:00–10:50

or

  • M/W/F: 8:00–8:50
  • M/W: 1:00–1:50

I commute about 20–25 min to SDSU, so I’d rather not have an 8 AM if the professors are about the same, but I also don’t want to pick a worse professor just to avoid waking up early lol.

With McGrane’s option I have no huge gaps and my days are shorter but I’m not sure if the commute is doable.

For anyone who has taken MATH 150 with Dunster or McGrane, who would you recommend? Also, how are their exams/homework/workload?

Would really appreciate any advice guys 🙏

Can non majors audition for student films

I’m not a film major but would love to participate in student films, however on the website I can only find info about plays and musicals. I did find a Facebook group but some of it seems like it’s non sdsu affiliated but just in the area, I’m wondering if there’s a website or way to find and audition for sdsu specific student films, Ty!

SDSU Nursing School

Hey, so I'm an incoming freshman at SDSU and my current major is public administration but I am 100% sure I want to change majors. I initially wanted to switch to urban planning but now I kinda want to go into nursing but I'm not sure what my best option is. Transferring to SDSU's nursing major seems pretty difficult with all the prereqs and the competitive admission process, so I was thinking about just changing my major to biology or something and doing an accelerated nursing program but then that seems expensive with getting a degree and then doing 1.5 years more. I'm open to anything but I'm just trying to figure out what my best options are so any help would be appreciated!

Cal Grant B

So all of my aid says disbursed except for my Cal Grant B which is a huge chuck (and the amount that I’m relying on to clear). Is anyone else not seeing theirs as disbursed? I know I’m not getting it today but I’m wondering if it’s delayed for anyone else?

UPDATE: All of mine have dispersed and paid off my balance. Just waiting for my refund to direct deposit, should’ve either tonight or tomorrow.
