Hi, I made a post similar to this before, but I'm failing Chem 1113 with a 64.4% after the most recent exam. There's a very very slim chance I can pass with the 2% of extra credit and the (possible) curve on the final exam/grade. If I do pass, is it possible to retake the class anyway to get a better grade? Should I sign up for both gen chem 1 and 2 and drop accordingly depending on what happens? What would the better option be?

I also wanted to add that I'm passing the lab with an A, in addition to that, I am pre PA, and I have all A's and B's except for this class.

Any advice will help! Study tips, plans of action, etc

Thanks

Any suggestions? Also heard you can look at the average gpa of the course, does anyone know how to do this?

I just moved to Boulder with my family. My dad and a bunch of his (older) friends are flying in to attend the game this weekend. They are all 65+, so I am planning to drop them off by the stadium for ease of access for them. I was wondering if there is a designated drop off / pick up spot, or if I just need to scope it out beforehand on my own to figure it out. I know a lot of the streets get blocked off or go one-way for games. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks and Sko Buffs!

Hey everyone, i’m a senior and looking for ANY elective for my final semester. Im open to ANY suggestions!! I’ve taken most of the electives i’ve wanted to, so looking for any recommendations, i do have senioritis and want something chill but could be encouraged to take something more demanding if it’s interesting! Please comment if you have any electives that you would recommend to a friend or peer.

hey everyone - so, i'm an incoming transfer student for the spring 2025 semester, and i'm trying to apply for apartment style housing on the myculiving portal (i'm 20 and a sophomore credit-wise). however, i only see the option to apply for the residence halls. is the apartment style option included in the residence hall application, or am i missing something?

(from the myculiving website)

i already reached out to the university housing email, but i just thought i'd ask here too in case anyone has experience with this, since they might not get back to me for a few business days. thanks

Considering changing my major and wanted to try out a marketing class first, but I can’t find any that aren’t restricted to business majors. Does anyone know of one?

My Sophomore daughter registers tomorrow morning but several of her classes show 2-5 seats available. Do they ever open new sections, or are additional seats ever added?

I'm looking for info on taking Math 2001 w/ Spencer Daugherty vs Florencia Orosz vs Juan Montoya vs Keith Kearnes. Any info is appreciated.

Hey guys! I just wanted to post in here and ask if anyone had any positive or negative comments about CU's transfer program or anything that I should know in general. So far, CU looks like a great choice but it is more expensive than other options I've looked at. Just wanna know if it's worth it. (To add a little info, I'd be a Computer Science major, though for a BA or a BS, I'm unsure.)

I have a huge handmade project to bring to class and I am TERRIFIED of trying to walk 20 minutes with this thing or bring it on a bus. It’s so fragile. Driving might be a lot better, but I don’t have a parking pass. What are my options?

Hi everyone, I recently graduated from CU Boulder and found a job in Denver. I’m now looking for housing (the sooner the better) somewhere between Broomfield and Denver. Does anyone have tips on finding solid housing/roommates? Thanks in advance, and sko buffs 🦬💪

Has anyone else applying to the aerospace engineering masters program heard back yet? I see they advertise mid-November and we are pretty much there now and I have not seen anything yet.

I'm working on the supplemental and I'm trying to find stuff to include about the college. What are the best things about Mechanical Engineering, or engineering in general? What are some engineering clubs that are offered

Thanks!

Hey everyone! Just like it says on the tin- I need a singular math credit until I'm done with math, and I really don't want to take a three-credit class if I only need one. Any advice? Are there any professors that offer credit for helping them or anything? Thanks!

I have a bachelors of applied mathematics and an associate in computer science. I want to get into machine learning. Is the MSDS program a good route? Should I look for a MS in AI or CS?

Sorry if this question is common

Hello everyone,

I am an electrical engineering master students with a background in microwave engineering, and after getting to know the current research happening at CU Boulder, I can only say that it highly aligns with my own interests especially within Professor Popovic, Professor Barton, and Professor Filipovic research groups.

For some context, my master GPA is 3.8/4, and I have had some research experience related to microwave engineering which lead to a couple of publications.

Hence, I would like to ask about how likely is it for international students like me to be accepted to the PhD program? What can make my application stand?

Also, should I try to approach the professors through email? From what I understand, the professors receive hundreds of emails from prospective PhD students and this could just be another annoying spam mail.

Hi, I am a rising junior planning to transfer spring 2025 hopefully to CU. I am in love with the school and am dying to get in. So details:

Credits Completed: 63 Overall GPA: 2.9 context: i did well in most classes but a couple i did really bad in and that heavily affected my gpa

I answered all of the extra academic explanation sections in the transfer application and wrote a pretty damn good essay. Additionally, I did experience legitimate extenuating circumstances and included those in the appropriate short answer question.

What i really want to know is i am planning to apply as an arts and sciences major but am not quite sure which specific major to pick. I was previously a marketing and integrated communications major and really am just looking for my best chance to be accepted. Any advice?

Is there a way to send in and have letters of recommendation accepted since the application doesn’t allow for any?

Should I apply to a different school within the college?

Any insights into a digital marketing major and if that would be a good choice? (also considering adding it as a second major once I get my gpa in order)

Additionally, any general advice is greatly appreciated, thanks.

Wanted to take a fun, somewhat easy course for one of my electives this year (junior) and can’t find many reviews about this class with the teacher Rahman. If anyone has taken this class or knows this instructor what are your thoughts on it?

How are people in Phy 2 doing right now? Lowkey worried for this class haha trying to see if there is a chance for a nice curve

Hi,

I'm not doing so well in CHEM 1113, and I'm failing the class. I plan on retaking it next semester, however I have an A in the lab (1114). Does anyone know if I'd have to retake the lab too?

Hi, I applied to the residential data science certificate and am wondering if anyone has experience with the courses? From my understanding it is just a portion of the ms program.

I am primarily looking to transition to a role with statistics and analytics and presenting data. I did this early in my career and enjoyed it more than software which I am currently doing.

The courses look like what I am interested in on paper. Any thoughts are good :)

I'm going to keep this post as short as possible. I'm planning on transferring from UCCS to CU Boulder for the 2025 spring term. My estimated cost of attendance per semester is 18k and I'm only getting 6.4k with pell grant and fafsa loans. While at UCCS i also got 5k worth of Colorado Student Grant, and I'm not sure why I'm not getting it at Boulder. Also, what's the process of requesting for more aid from the school like? What kind of private loans and grants/scholarships do ya'll recommend I apply to?

Apologies for the application question-

Should I send a 30 composite ACT score or go test optional? I am applying to the College of Arts and Sciences which has a “middle 50% score range” of 29-33 for the admitted applicants last year.

I would appreciate the feedback. I’ve been hearing that it was significantly harder for kids to get into Boulder last year.

I'm going to my first football game on campus this Saturday and was wondering what is everyone's favorite lot to set up at? I just want to bring a little grill, cook some breakfast and toss the pigskin a bit. Also, what time should I arrive for the 10AM Kickoff to get in? Thanks in advance!

I am listed as 90-100 in Grad & Family housing for next spring. How likely am I gonna take this place? Or when should I expect to get the contact in general..?

For those who applied to the RA position, have yall heard anything back yet?

CLAS 1110

Has anyone taken CLAS 1110 - Gods, Monsters, and Mortals: Literature of Ancient Greece with Reina Callier? If so, what did you think? I’m a senior looking for chill elective credits.

Is anyone getting a degree in Integrated Design Engineering? It seems more project based which seems more fun to me. What is it like? Does it look as good to employers as a mechanical engineering degree?
