FAU-master in special education

Recently got accepted to ABA program.

Any experience sharing?

How are classes? Do you have more assignments or quizzes?

I need to make an appointment with the advisor. What do I need to ask him? Will it be long meeting (online)?

Any information about your experience there will help

Thank you

FAU-cost

I got accepted for FAU spring semester, master in special education and registered for spring classes. I found out in my account the bill for it and it says almost $12,00.

Is this amount is for the whole master degree (two year)?

I’m confused

Hi! My daughter is going to FAU. Her father thinks it is enough to pay $200 a month in expenses. He said he did his research but daughters cost more than sons because of makeup, nails, hair, etc. Does anyone know what a good monthly allowance would be in Florida for a female college student?

Question about Common App

For those who applied through the common app, when it asks if you are a Florida Resident does it just mean if you are a resident for tuition purposes or a legal resident (green card/born there)?

Is it normal for a 34-year-old alumnus to hang out on campus, even though he just got his degree?

I just graduated FAU in August of 2024, but very late, since I am 34 years old. The thing is, even though I work and am looking for a better job, can I still be active on campus as an alumnus?

I won't be partying, but doing things like playing video games and looking for socializing and volunteering. I will also be dressed very formally, business attire perhaps.

Grad housing advice

Hello everyone! I am (hopefully) an incoming graduate student for the spring 2025 semester. Originally I had applied for the summer and the fall however I was contacted by my department letting me know if they had an availability for a teaching assistant ship in the spring. Having such position is huge for me as I definitely do not have the funds to finance my own graduate school experience however due to the short notice I am really really struggling to find anywhere to live off campus within my strict budget from my stipend. So far everywhere that I found within my budget is either terribly reviewed or very suspicious of being a scam. Does anyone know of any locations near campus that are affordable or has been in a situation similar and can offer some advice. Thank you!

Didn't get accepted.

I'm probably going to sound stupid and entitled here but I still have to ask.

Back in August I applied for the Spring 2025. I am currently on track to get my AA from PBSC this December. I'm confused as to why I didn't get accepted. I thought getting an AA would be an automatic entry into FAU.

changing my dorm room assignment

hi guys, has anyone had success in changing their dorm room assignment if they didn’t like it? for example, all 3 of my requests were for single dorms and i ended up getting placed in a double which is something i really didn’t want. i’m trying to think of how i can appeal this, and i still have yet to submit my application to the accessibility office for an ESA for anxiety. does anyone know/ think that would help me get a single dorm instead?

Mandatory Civics literacy exam?

Hi, I was told by my advisor to take Gov of the United States since it’s a requirement and that after the class I could take an online civics literacy exam online, additional charges. Does anyone know where I can do that? I took the class a semester ago and of course canvas totally wiped that courses page out, and I don’t know who to ask

Disappointed in school services

Hi,

Is anyone able to point me in any homelessness services that would verify me? I’ve basically been given a run around by multiple organizations because of how I’m slightly out of the permitters of being helped.

Not sure what to do, even housing has acknowledged my situation and won’t give any housing to me until that letter comes in.

Just feeling defeated after it’s been waved at me for the past couple weeks and told of emergency housing. Basically because I’m not HIV positive half of the places won’t accept me for services.

BSC1005 online lab

Hey guys! Next semester I plan on taking life science lab online instead of in person as I don’t live on campus. I’m taking professor Joshua Scholl for both lecture and lab. Do you guys think an online lab is harder than in person? Should I switch?

Looking to start a band (for fun, 19f)

Hey! I’m looking for people to start a band with, preferably other girls, hope that’s cool!

I’m just starting to get back into singing after years of not singing at all (not even alone) because of anxiety... Anyway, I recently started to get back into it and it’s really fun, I promise I’m not a terrible singer!

I’m open to different genres and think it’d be cool to do covers for example like Coldplay, Paramore, and Sixpence None the Richer or smth like that. We can also try making our own music that would be cool.

Anyway if you’re interested hmu!
