Destination Arizona

Hey guys, just wondering if the destination Arizona stuff is really mandatory for all incoming freshmen cause I have a job that interferes with the hours of the things it's saying we have to do for it. What should I do?

Gen-ed Classes

I am looking for the easiest A gen-ed classes (specifically artist, humanist, building connections) that anyone has taken. My major courses are high demand and time consuming with studying but I still need my artist, humanist, and three building connection courses to add to my plate. Really could use any simple recommendations please.

Where to buy certain School of Theatre, Film and TV T-shirt?

Hey guys! Just wanted to know where to buy a cool-looking University of Arizona T-shirt I stumbled upon a couple months ago on Instagram. The School of Theatre, Film & Television and I both follow each other on Instagram--and that is because I'm a 2019 graduate of that school at the U of A. Anyways--noticed in their Instagram story back around April of this year that 2 female Theatre students were wearing a black T-shirt with the Block A on it, and next to it, it said "School of Theatre, Film & Television" in white letters in the typeface that U of A uses for its different colleges. Do any of you guys know where I can find this shirt and if it's still available? Thanks! 😁👍🏻

Anyone else's Student Unsubsidized Federal Loan still not showing as "accepted"?

Question in title. Other aid has been applied in the bursar account, but this one is still showing the amount offered, but $0.00 accepted, even though our student logged in and accepted it approx. two weeks ago.

I know that the federal government changed the rules this year and that this has delayed some things, just wondering the status of other students' federal loans in the portal.

UofA employees should have access to the Rec’s without having to pay

I’m an employee and it just seems stupid that I have to pay to access the Rec.

What are your thoughts?

Campus Store PayOnePrice

UA community, my brain isn't computing and Ive been away from taking a class for a while...

If I opt out of this Campus Store PayOnePrice charge, will I lose access to using library ebooks?

Everytime I think i understand i second guess myself.

Thanks!

How many credits can you transfer?

Hey guys! So I just transferred to UA and I was told by one advisor there’s no longer a limit for the amount of credits I can transfer and I wanted to know what’s the maximum amount of credits so one you know has transferred. I wanted to know about the consequences because I already transferred 64 from CC and I always thought the limit was 64. Just wanna hear from some experiences

Transportation from Honors Village to campus?

I've heard the walk is far, should I invest in a bike? I've heard theft is really bad though.

Making friends as a commuter

How do you make friends as a commuter? I know a lot of people say join clubs or join a frat and a lot of people I know managed to get into friend groups and are super social and maybe I haven’t had the time to expose myself to those same social settings because i’ve only been at UA for a semester but I can’t help think i’m doing something wrong or I won’t find my friends so I guess I kinda wanted to ask and see if anyone else has that same feeling or experience and how they’ve gone about it

Advertised Rent went down, but have a lease starting 8/1

Not sure if sharing the large corp. apt. complex name would help but curious if anyone has any luck negotiating a lower rent, when advertised rent went down $100/mo.

We'd be happy if they thru in free parking. Calling has not been helpful, but we haven't paid 1st mo. rent yet.

What to expect for move in at honors village parking wise.

I understand at the start of our “move in window” we get 30 minutes of curb time to move everything from the car. But after that do they have designated parking for parent cars during move in? As I remember for our daughter’s visit there is not a ton of parking on north campus. Any info will help. Thank you.

Astronomy and Physics double major?

Has anyone done the Astronomy and Physics double major (or any similar double major) and would like to give their opinions and experiences on it? I am an incoming Pima CC dual enrollment/transfer student who is currently enrolled in the Astronomy B.S program and is interested in double majoring since I got a decent aid package (I am an in-state resident who has lived in Tucson most of my life and is able to live with my parents off campus and get free transportation and a work study job, reducing my total costs to like 1-2k per year excluding federal loans) and I can probably fit another degree in since I only need to do about 2-3 years for an Astronomy degree because of my transfer credits from Pima. I am interested in Physics since I did Radiology Tech at Pima CC and was mostly interested in the physics side of it (and comparing the physics in radiology with the physics in astronomy bc i am a huge nerd lol) and Physics has always been my favorite subject besides Astronomy and Geology. Even though I have heard mixed opinions on UA’s Physics program, I would like to make it my double major and would love to hear any feedback from the Astronomy/Physics double major
