So I know the nursing program requires drug testing for the initial application process and they say that additional screening may be required. Does anyone know if they actually retest you or if it’s just an empty threat? Or just based on where your clinical is?
I'm a 25 yr old female student at Oakland University. I am looking for someone to room with for the 2025 upcoming winter semester and onwards. I will not be graduating until 2026-2027. I was a dietetics major and recently switched to chemistry. I am looking for a place to rent for under $650 dollars a month for a decent amount of time. if anyone is willing to room together but does not have a place in mind we could explore apartment options. Places close to campus like oak square. I would need someone who is pet friendly, I have a small female Maltese who would be rooming with us. No crazy expectations, I am fairly easy going and quiet. Plan to keep shared areas clean. Let me know if you have any space available!
Hi. So l'm transferring from a college to a university and I'm just shocked that all the pre requirements I took in college (took 2 years) are not pre requirements for my BSN degree in university. I have to take 8 more pre requirements, this time for the university and thennn enroll into BSN degree. Is there a reason why I have to basically do 6 years of education? I'm sorry I'm just so confused and new to this

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?
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!

Hi, I’m looking at moving out of my boyfriend’s place and was wondering if anyone has any info on the OU apartments?
I'm interested in going there to hopefully work on some stuff but I can't for the life of me figure out how to schedule an appointment. Do I just need to go there and talk to reception?
What happens if a freshman doesn't pass a class and therefore does not get the full 28 credits the first year? I understand they could take an extra class the winter semester but what if they don't? Can they make up this class in the spring or summer and still qualify for the same scholarships they had their freshman year? Does the school kick them out?
Hi y'all, I'm not a student here or anything but I happen to be in Auburn hills quite a bit, so I was wondering if there were any Jam sessions around campus?

Hey,
I got into the Nursing program but the acceptance letter is super vague on where I need to get my heath screen/urine drug test.
Has anyone already done this/can advise how I need to schedule these tasks?
I’m going to call the School of Nursing regardless, I just didn’t know if someone had the answers here!
Hi everyone! I got admitted to the nursing program and I was wondering what shoes are best for clinical? I know they say our shoes have to be leather, with a heel, and white or black. I can’t find anything that is comfortable. TIA!
Hi! I'm a high school senior interested in studying nursing and as this is one of my options, I was interested in how the nursing program is, as well as Oakland as a whole compared to other universities in Michigan.
Does anybody have an extra ticket to the Master and Doctoral graduation on December 13th? If you’re not going to use all 4 of your Guaranteed tickets, would you be willing to give me your extras? I’d be willing to pay you for it.
Hey everyone! Just wondering if anyone else has applied to the ASD program for Winter 2025? If so, has your portal updated to “decision pending”? When will we receive our decisions?
I am thinking of applying to a Ph.D program at Oakland University. My masters, from a different institution, is in the same field of study. Would I be able to transfer masters credits to count toward my Ph.D? If so, must the credits have been earned in a certain window of time from when I begin my Ph.D studies?
Is there any study areas that anyone knows of that are more private than just the study rooms? Trying to practice for the abdominal and chest validation in Health Assessment

Hello! I wanted ask here just in case but I've been looking into getting a personal tutor for my accounting 2000 class. Its not clicking for me, but I feel like I'm so close to understanding. I tried going to the tutoring on campus and found that I really didn't know what to ask there and figured a one on one thing would be better to go over the chapter. If anyone offers anything or knows someone who would offer I'd love the help!
The past month I’ve missed a handful of classes due my Aunt being in the hospital and she ended up passing away this week. With this I unfortunately didn’t do great on exams since I missed a bit of important content and didn’t catch up on time. When I emailed my advisor they just directed me towards the Request for Exception form but I don’t know if I would qualify since my Aunt isn’t an immediate family member. I don’t know how to provide documentation of her death either other than her obituary. She also has a different last name than me so I also don’t know how to prove I’m related to her. Any guidance or advice is appreciated…
Ive done this crap 4 times already because its required but i honestly dont feel like doing it again. So what happens if i simply dont do it? Am i going to get kicked out?
Who is the person that walks through the OC every weekend and yells/makes groaning noises? Is he ok? Is he a student here? I was going to say hi but he doesn’t stop yelling.

At this time, I am currently conducting research on the 18-25 age, college student demographic, and I'm looking for people interested in participating in answering some questions over zoom. Yes with cameras on ;). I would GREATLY appreciate anyone interested in participating. Your feedback will make a huge impact in what will make a difference in the loneliness narrative. I look forward to talking to you and hearing your stories!
I've recently just done a room reassignment on 9/23. And I've not been placed in a new room yet nor have I gotten any notifications about my reassignment request. If anyone who has done this process could tell me when I'd most likely hear back and get a new room.
so my professor caught me cheating. She told me that she was going to give me a zero on the exam and send my case to the dean. This is my first offense. Can anyone tell me what would happen next?
