Classes are reserved

I’m currently an online major for biological sciences but registered for on-campus for Spring 2025 but the classes I need are all reserved. My advisor said just put it in my cart and wait. I’m trying to take chm 113. I’m a junior. How long do I have to wait? I feel like my advisor is leaving certain things out. I did change my major for on-campus.

Any info helps, thanks!

Side projects for CS majors

I am a CS major. I want to ask fellow students if anyone's doing side projects.

Do you prefer doing it alone or as a team? If you prefer team projects, how do you find good team members?

And which topics do people mostly choose?

Thanks in advance :)

Why is W.P.Carey so expensive

I am an international student planning to apply for Ms in SCM fall 25 intake. W.P. Carey has 2 tracks for SCM. One being a 9 months program (Non stem) and other one is 16 months (Stem). The program fees for 16 months is $89k which is insane. Please let me know if this much fees is worth it or not. Additionally, how are the career prospects after graduating from ASU.

Stuck between a Business (Communication) , BA and Digital Audiences , BS

I want to prioritize using my degree to market myself, or someone else online. I stream on the side and am hoping my degree can help with this, or if I am unsuccesful, someone else. Do y'all think that one of these options would be better than the other?

Can I appeal for scholarships?

I'm a High school senior and I got accepted to cs @ asu, but it seems like I didn't receive any scholarships. I forgot to send my sat score - I have a 1490 w/ 780 math. Do you think I can mail admissions and request them to consider my sat score for scholarships?

Confused on how to get free tickets

I want to attend the football game tomorrow evening with a friend but I think I might have lost the opportunity to get free tickets. At first I tried Ticketmaster, using my asu email and clicking “forgot password” they didn’t recognize my email. I’m pretty sure I then tried the Game Day app, and they didn’t take my ASU email either. What I ended up doing is creating a personal account with my ASU email but now they don’t recognize me as a student so I have to pay. Is there a way to rectify this? Right now I’m trying to figure out how to delete this account but I’m very confused at the moment.

MCAT study buddy

:) Hey! I am looking for someone to study for MCAT with. I know it’s a very long, lonely and tiring process and would love to support others and get the same support as well! Studying with someone usually makes you retain more content and for a longer period of time. I’m currently near ASU Tempe campus and if anyone is interested then I would love to meet up in person or virtually to study!

Off Campus Apartments near Tempe or in Mesa (close to E Main)

Hello!
I am an incoming PhD Student in Computer Engineering for the Spring 2025 semester, I will be moving around January. I understand it might be too late for availability, however any recommondations for cheap housing would be appreciated! I am looking for 1 bd/1 ba or studio. Also open to shared accomodation!

Note: I have been looking for accomodations on various places but can't find anything below $1300 (from what I have heard and read it seems expected), however my budget is anywhere between $800 - $1200 (+ utilities)

NAU vs. ASU for an international student

Hi,

Considering NAU and ASU transfer,

I know it's quite specific, but just wondering if anyone has considered both for transfer and also an international student?

What are your options for college support financially?

There were changes with my support for tuition so I'm thinking I need more ideas for support.

How did you guys get started?

Thank you. God bless! 😊

Should I take these classes in the same semester

I am a biochemistry major and I have to take BCH 361- Advance principles of biochemistry BCH 461- General biochemistry this semester. Should I also take Bio 340- General Genetics this semester or is it going to be too hard to do these 3 classes in the same semester?

I’m failing all my classes here besides like English. I’m open to switching majors too. It’s gonna be hard asf to get the grades up but it’s fs possible. ( Ihad a 2.8 GPA in high school)

I really wanna transfer into ASU next semester. What are the chances of me getting in or what could help me get in? Keep it a buck w me.

Transferring from Community college, I don’t think it prepared me for ASU

I spent the last two and a half years at a Maricopa community college anxiously waiting to transfer to ASU. I’ve been registering for classes and working with my advisor to create a schedule but I’m having serious doubts about whether or not I’m able to do these classes

My spring 2025 schedule has me taking 4 upper division electives and the continuation of my Spanish class for my major. I’m looking at the syllabuses for these classes and I’m incredibly worried.

I breezed through community college with all A’s but the courses at ASU look nothing like what I’m used to taking and I feel like I’m not prepared for ASU. There is so much writing and reading involved it’s hard to believe that there’s any time left in the day to actually live.

Can anyone who transferred from CC share some insight? I’m struggling to find the motivation to continue my higher education

TA's Grading

Why do TAs grade harder than professors? I don’t understand—it’s really frustrating. They seem to nitpick every little problem. You’d think they’d look out for a fellow student, but no, they try their best to give you the lowest possible grade, or even fail you.

MAE242 Fluids Professors

Hey guys,

I'm gonna be taking fluids next semester and I wanted to know if anyone knows about the two profs teaching them, Kangping Chen and Jeonglae Kim. I'm currently in Prof Kim's 6 PM session but because profs were just released, I saw their reviews and his are not as promising as Prof Chen's at 7:30 AM. Do you guys know if it'd be worth it switching to the 7:30 AM session or if he's actually that bad compared to Prof Chen? I'm also taking Materials, Advanced Math Methods, and Gen Chem for Engineers.

I submitted two bank statements right now, both got rejected, the second one - the new one - got rejected because it is not showing liquid funds - which indeed it is.

Anyone got hints or tips what to do?

Don't take Universal Pathways (ULC) ECN 211

Just throwing this warning out there. My son is in high school through ASU Prep and is allowed to take university courses. He took ECN 211 recently and I worked through all of the material with him (except the exams), so I experienced 1st hand how this course was taught and graded.

This is the worst college course I have ever experienced. I have gone through extremely challenging classes in the past while working on my engineering and MBA degrees. Nothing compares to what we experienced in this.

The class was only offered in the 8 week format, so we spent 2-3 hours every night reading the material. It could not have been presented in a worse manner. We pointed out to the instructors many issues including website bugs that prevented interactive materials from working and paragraphs that literally just stopped halfway through leaving us to figure out what else they were trying to say.

One of the videos by a professor indicated there would be a curve, but we we asked the current professor about this, they said "NO CURVE". Everyone we talked to got a C or worse.

The cost of not being #1 in Innovation

A weird thought experiment a friend and I were doing. What would be the cost to university marketing campaigns if we lost the #1 spot for innovation. Countless ads, websites, booklets, postcards, digital graphics, and whatnot would need to be redone.

How are the classes for Global Logistics Management?

Hello,

I am considering enrolling in the online Global Logistics Management program, and I have a few questions regarding the course structure and workload. Since I will be studying online and working full-time, understanding these aspects is crucial for me to plan my schedule effectively.

Could you please provide some information on the following:

Course Structure: Could you share an overview of what the courses are like in this program? Are there any specific approaches or unique aspects I should be aware of?

Mathematics Difficulty: How challenging are the math requirements within the program? Do the courses require a strong background in mathematics, or are the concepts generally manageable?

Assignments: Are there weekly papers or assignments that need to be submitted? Additionally, how frequently are discussion boards used, and are contributions to these boards mandatory?

Exams: Approximately how many exams are in a multiple-choice format, and are there other assessment types I should expect?

Overall Workload: How demanding is the program overall, particularly for someone working full-time? I’d like to get a sense of the weekly commitment required to stay on top of the material and succeed in the program.

Thank you in advance:)

How to get the Zoom developer role for my ASU Zoom Account

So I tried to use the ASU Zoom account because it has the pro plan that I need. Since I'm a user and not an admin for this account, unfortunately I can't create my Zoom app. Does anybody know if there is a way to ask ASU to give me the Zoom developer role atleast for my account? The only other option is to buy a pro plan on another email.
