Free Pizza ?

Heard a rumor forever ago that students get free pizza at the dominos next to campus if our football team wins? Is that even true? Deeply broke at the moment and desperate for something that's not another cheese burger.

How/Where do people go out

Where do people go out at night? I have heard of no parties the last week. Do people go to bars instead and if so which ones? I am just kinda confused any guidance would be helpful.

Boring

Is it just me being a transfer but everyone here is so….boring PLS DON’T TAKE OFFENSE but like idk…Everyone here just seems mid or like really shallow or maybe I’m judging to much on appearance but there’s nothing ever to spark up in conversations cause it’s just like..idk it’s just so bland. It’s really pretty on campus though so that’s a plus I guess.

Are all tests supposed to be proctored?

Pretty much the title. I have a couple online classes and nothing says they HAVE to be proctored? One course shows resources for scheduling exams and such but I’m confused as to whether I HAVE to have all my exams proctored.

Got accepted to ETSU

Hi I’m new here so I’m not sure how to word this. I got accepted into here a week ago and went on one of the tours today. The campus looked really pretty and the food looked really good. I wanted to apply for the Honors college for the Quillen med school scholars program. Has anyone been through it before? Was it helpful? Super competitive? I’ve read through the subreddit and some people have said that this school was great for academics and some said not so much. I have a 4.25 gpa and a 30 act- would that be a good starting point for applying to this? Is the Carter residence hall nice?

Are there also opportunities to shadow, volunteer, or intern hospitals or medical centers around here? I did a week long internship in Pediatric hospital for rheumatology in Pennsylvania and was wondering if there’s anything similar to that here.

On a random note- how is the food? I heard some people say that they only put good food out when they are doing tours. Is that true? I don’t mind eating junk I just don’t want to pay 2k for food if it turns out shitty lol.

Looking to start a club

Hello everyone, I’m a new student here and am trying to connect with some people with similar hobbies. If you’re interested in starting a Magic the Gathering club or starting a D&D club (I believe the dragon’s tavern is inactive) please reach out to me.

ETSU Bookstore order cancelled?

I ordered one of my required texts thru the ETSU Bookstore a few weeks ago, and I just now recieved an email saying my order was cancelled.

I'm confused abt this. Could my professor not need the book anymore? Will I get a refund?

Edit: The book is out of print and was taken off the required reading list yesterday. My card was never charged as the order was never processed.

Promise Plus

For those who were asking about receiving the promise plus scholarship, has anyone had it apply yet? I'm starting to become unsteady considering I have to confirm or deny loans for registration by Monday, and I don't know if I can attend without it.

Weird emails

Does anybody else get the weirdest from the school. Example, I’ll email finical aid or housing and it’s almost like talking to a robot or AI. The answers are always really vague and almost always miss the point.

Admitted

So I just got recently admitted into ETSU like literally this morning and…I’m so confused and everything is happening wayyy to fast did I miss a few things? Am I able to still live on campus? I don’t know what to do next because I have 2 holds for the Orientation and for Undergrad Advisement. I’m also a Transfer student if that helps with anything.

Living at home

I cannot find this anywhere online but due to some personal issues I was wondering if anyone knows if it’s possible to live at home but drive to the campus for classes and if so what are the requirements?

Textbooks can be free!

This is a reminder to everyone (specifically freshman),

Do NOT buy your books before the first day of class, unless you receive an email from your professor instructing you to do so. Until you have access to your D2L page and the professor has spoken about class materials, DON'T BUY ANYTHING!

Most professors will publish their textbook online for free in your D2L class page, but the bookstore doesn't know this, and will recommend you textbooks that cost hundreds of dollars when they will most likely come free to you.

You can save yourself hundreds by just waiting, don't stress, no professor in their right mind will be angry you don't have that $300 biology looseleaf with the Pearson Key on the very first day, if anything, your first days of class will be spent talking about required materials and class rules.

If you're looking for any textbooks on sale, check your ETSU class stories on Snapchat, a lot of students sell their textbooks there for a discount. You'll usually catch them doing this by the beginning or end of a semester.

Thank y'all!

Clement Three Person Room

Does anyone know the dimensions of the 3 person rooms in Clement? Or any desk/dresser dimensions in any Clement room? Or perhaps the height of the fully lofted (not very high) bed? RD sent pictures but she doesn't know the dimensions of anything.

How much vertical space is available under the beds in Stone Hall? I'm planning to get my freshman a fridge and want to be sure it isn't too tall to fit.
