Parking in the snow?

Tonight I got into an accident in a friends car, and left my car in Kid Brewer Stadium. I won’t be able to get back to my car until 7:30 ish, if the busses are running. Do you think I’ll get towed? I have a parking pass for Greenwood.

Two questions: One about Watauga College application and another about changing majors.

Hello, I am a HS senior and I have two questions about AppState.

  1. When does the Watauga Residential College close? I know the Honors College closed yesterday (Nov. 30) but I don't see any indication of a due date for Watauga.
  2. Is it possible to change majors after being accepted but before enrolling? If it's important, I selected Computer Science but a small part of me wants to change to Computer Information Systems.

Thanksgiving conflict

My friend said a D is a passing grade at App State and I said it had to be a C or higher.

This was a 15-minute yelling match...can you tell we are stressed about exams?

What do you think?

Mountain Laurel Hall questions

So I figured out recently that I will be staying in the Mt. Laurel Residence Hall during the Spring Semester (transferring from CCCTI and this will be my first semester at APP). I just had a few questions about Mt. Laurel Hall and Residence Hall life in general.

  1. What as far as furniture would you recommend bringing? (I don't mind having to spend extra effort moving things in and out of the dorm that much)

  2. Are electric kettles and Keurigs below 1200 watts allowed?

  3. Are freshmen allowed to park at Mt. Laurel?

  4. What would you recommend as far as decor goes?

  5. Is internet speed good?

I would appreciate any input. Thank you!

Football: A Retrospective

Yall I get it. Football is a socially acceptable way to yell with your friends and day drink, but can we please be respectful of the fact that people live here all year round.

Throw your trash away, don’t yell at random people on the street, and for the love of god don’t break into lecture buildings to destroy people’s hard work. It sounds ridiculous but it’s happened every football season at least once for the past 3 years.

Anyway, have fun and stay warm.

Would there be a way to request a private/shared bathroom dorm because I’m trans?

Hey everyone! I got my acceptance from app state yesterday (yay) and it’s more than likely where I’m going to commit. I’m going to tour it sometime after the new year and make sure I have all my bases covered.

I have some concerns about dorms though, since I’m trans ftm. I’m not comfortable using communal bathrooms (I look too masculine for the women’s usually, and I don’t want to risk showering or anything in the men’s) and when I look at the website, it says that the dorms with shared/private bathrooms are mostly not for freshmen. It would be much more comfortable and easier to explain that I’m trans and be chill with a few other people rather than a whole floor.

Does anyone have experience with this sort of thing at App State? I’ll obviously take it up with the official office if I do commit, but if anyone has experience and wouldn’t mind sharing I’d really appreciate it :)

App state or CSU

Hello, I am having trouble deciding between App state and CSU. I am in NC so App state would be significantly cheaper compared to CSU but is CSU worth the price compared to App state? I'm looking to go into a business or creative design field after college. I also really like the outdoors and the mountains but I also don't mind a city feel and want a variety of things to do. Pros and Cons of each maybe?

Why can transfers only be in Mountain Laurel?

Hi! I'm an incoming transfer for the spring semester and I'm honestly quite frustrated that my options are either off campus housing or Mountain Laurel Hall. I already have a friend in Frank Hall (WHO CURRENTLY DOES NOT HAVE A ROOMMATE!!!!!!!!!!) who I was really hoping to room with. I was really looking forward to this as my previous college also had housing problems that prevented me from living near campus, so i was really excited to be actually on campus rooming with a friend. I just feel kind of disheartened because it feels kind of sad being like separated off from the rest of campus in all honesty. I spoke with the housing office over the phone, and had it explained that my only option to live with my friend (who again currently does not have a roommate & an open spot in their room) would to be submit a transfer room request 3 weeks into the semester if their empty spot isn't filled by somebody else and hope & pray it gets approved, which was made to seem quite unlikely by the housing office online. I understand wanting to provide a "community" for transfers, but frankly this feels like its pushing me away from the larger community. Is there anyone/any place I could try and contact about changing this? Thanks

Organic chemistry tutoring

www.organicchemistrytutoring.ca

Overwhelmed by organic chemistry? Assignments and tests creeping up on you and feeling like you’re in hot water? Or maybe you’re doing well and need that 95%? Whatever your struggle with organic chemistry may be, I’m here to make sure you succeed.

Why work with me?

  • Every tutor knows the subject, but not every tutor knows how to transfer that knowledge to a student. I do.
  • I tutor organic chemistry full time, it’s not a hobby or side-gig. When you book with me, you’ll be working only with me, not random people at an agency.
  • You’ll be learning problem solving through organic chemistry, which you can apply to many other subjects.
  • Your learning will be customized to your specific needs

Before booking a lesson, let’s chat about your needs, my teaching style, and what you can expect, to see if we’d be a good fit together.

Thank you for your time and I look forward to working with you!

Mike
