I am attending UMN during the Fall semester this year, and I was wondering... whats the best way to make friends?

I'll be moving away from my friends in NV for context, so I am a little nervous but willing to make new friends 🫠 is it something I should wait to do until I get on Campus? Or is there a way current students start interacting with each other before classes begin?

A bit of this is yes, because of living off-Campus. I want to find a person I actually get along with instead of somebody random where it's like 50/50 we get along or not 😭

Hi! Next fall I will be taking Chem 1071 and was wondering how it was for anyone that took it before. Are there any professors you recommend or don’t? Should I take chem somewhere else? I know the chemistry department here at the U is really bad right now, but I just wanted peoples thoughts.

so yesterday i got off the waitlist to umn twin cities for a comm major and im already committed to uwm for marketing with plans of transfering to uw madison after a year. however, this admissions process has been so stressful and anxiety inducing for me, im really really scared about having to do it again next year. im planning on taking summer classes and winterim classes at uwm to transfer but i still just know its not going to be enough to transfer into madison. umn i would stay there for all 4 years, find my community and minor in buisness in healthcare. im from madison so umn is 4 ish hours away and ive never been far from home before. i feel like umn is the right short term decisions but i dont know how i will feel about it 4 years from now. any advice would be super appreciated!

as the title states, my professor or TA lost my final exam for a required course. I am a senior that graduates this term. however, my professor gave me an incomplete and told me that the registrar informed him I never took the final exam—which is a lie. now my professor is saying I have to retake the course since apparently my exam is gone.

I emailed him back and told him that one of my TA's saw me there and could vouch for me since we actually have good rapport. additionally, the same TA took my attendance and collected my exam.

I informed my professor about this, but was wondering if anyone has gone through a similar situation and how it was resolved? I dont want to retake the class since this is not a mistake I made and I just want to make sure I can actually get a job after college.

i have all my other final grades in (i’m a senior) and one of my classes has been reported as “NR.” i want to get my diploma, so i don’t know why there would be no record of a grade for that course. i also got an A too (based on Canvas), so i would like that grade to be on my transcript

Hi! I got accepted into Umn for the fall semester and I had a question about my transcript. If I had 1 class turn into a D but the rest are A’s would I be fine. My science class kicked my ass this semester but i had a 4.0 last semester. Am I fine? Im going into CLA

Title. I’d rather avoid target, cvs etc if possible. The usps is very dependent on the office too. Is there anywhere at the U I can buy shipping boxes?

Hey y'all! I'm an incoming freshman to UMN this fall, and as I was working through my housing application, I was thinking of whether or not I wanted to live in an LLC.

To be honest, as an out-of-state student, I just want to get as deeply involved in the UMN community as possible, so I can hopefully find my people. Would an LLC help with that or restrict me from meeting people outside of the LLC?

I am currently considering either Huntly House, Tsev Hmoob, or Social Justice Action LLC. I find myself resonating with their description on the UMN website, but I would like to get some advice from people who have attended UMN. Is there a certain LLC I should go with that would help me with my goal?

Is weird to take grad photos after graduation?

I’m a PSEO student who got admitted to UMN CSE before my spring semester started. This semester went really badly because I overloaded myself, and now I’m freaking out because I failed Calc II and withdrew from chem. I’m afraid I won’t be able to graduate early as I anticipated. Is it over for me? I’m scared I’ll get deferred.

I don’t know if it’s just me but I’m feeling kind of gaslit by seeing “good” air quality on the weather apps while the pollen count is astronomical. I’m asthmatic and have a pretty bad post nasal drip so have been coughing nonstop since the really warm weather has arrived. How are people checking for pollen count and does anyone know why it doesn’t factor into the weather apps?

Has anyone in CS here gotten an internship? I’m about to graduate next year. I’ve applied to hundreds of internships all over the past year. I’ve only gotten to a technical round twice, and both ended up rejecting me. Anyone have any advice? Should I stretch out my remaining credits to try to buy more time to get an internship? Or do I just go into full time recruiting hoping for the best?

I have a professor that hasn’t graded several things, including exams, all semester. I have emailed them a few times since the last day of classes asking about my work and grades but haven’t received a response. Theoretically, what would happen if no work was graded or they didn’t publish a final grade in MyU? Would our current grades in canvas automatically be the one that would be published?

Anybody else have this issue, should I reach out to the instructor or wait it out?

This is an easy history online course.

I feel embarrassed to be posting this, but I’m scared my final grade in aem statics & dynamics is not high enough to pass (D+). I would’ve used a late W, but I thought I could pass the course based on my overall grade before the final. Is there anything I can do to see if I can save my grade? This is already my second time trying to fulfill this major requirement, and I don’t have any room in my schedule to add/drop classes fall semester, so I’m really anxious.

The first time I took my dept’s statics/mechanics course, I just barely didn’t pass (had a very rough semester and was honestly burnt out from summer courses), but I really tried this second time around. I went to office hours, tried to ask qs, but it was hard bc I didn’t know anyone in the class. We focused much more on statics and deformation of rigid bodies in our dept’s version of the course, so I’m wondering if I can ask the prof to reconsider my grade in that regard?

I’m just so exhausted, and I feel so stupid bc why can’t I pass this one requirement. Everyone else seemed to so easily :/
