Did anyones PHEEA grant disappear for their spring semester

I got accepted for PHEAA last semester, I only had to pay a low amount for tuition this time, and when I just looked at my balance they took away my grant but when I look at the award offer letter it says estimated state grant fund and the the total amount.

Safety for Indians?

I am an Asian Indian male applying to Temple for B.S CS. Heard rumours about unsafe environment around Temple. I am tall(6 2) and good build(relatively intimidating). Would it be safe for me, hearing alot of hate for Indians?

Also, assuming my profile gets me into Temple, what are some equivalently ranked schools I should apply to, to avoid Temple with s decent chance of getting in?

Iso drink recipe from an old cafe

Before there was Richie's Cafe, there was a different cafe in the same location called Saige Cafe. 6 years ago right around this time, they were offering a mystery iced tea which I believe was called "Love Potion #9". It was so good!! I was under the spell and obsessed with this tea. The owner said that she would fill me in on the recipe, once they were done selling the drink for the season. But then the pandemic hit, and when life finally returned to normal, Saige Cafe WAS GONE!

I am hoping that a former Saige employee happens to see this post and can provide the tea. But if anyone else has any ideas on the recipe, please feel free to share! :)

Temple stingy asf

Today I got my acceptance letter for Temple. It was very cool and exciting but there was no aid given whatsoever. (Maybe they email that separately or something but I'm basing it off of my experience with getting into another school and in that school they put the aid they wanted to give in the acceptance letter).

I know I'm an out of state student and I did have a C+ in IB physics in 11th grade and a C- in Algebra 1 in 8th grade, but I really was not expecting no aid at all. Specifically because my student aid index from FAFSA is -1500 which is the lowest it can possibly be.

Anyways, time to pester the financial aid office ig.

Edit: I just looked at the automatic reply for the email I sent and they said financial aid offers will be available in February/March. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 Im goofy asf. I hope they dont hate me for the emotional email I wrote to them about how my parents work 12+ hours a day.

Best Place To Live?

Currently commuting every day to make 8am classes and it’s tremendous torture. One of the perks of being a veteran means NOT having to wake up at 5-6am every day, so…where’s the best place to live on/around campus? I’m 27 years old and can afford a studio, I don’t want a roommate (unless they were my age/mature enough to keep a clean, comfortable living space). I’ve seen The View at Montgomery a thousand times but never been inside, I know of University Village and Morgan Hall as well but I have a little kitty cat that I want to keep with me and I know University housing restricts pets, I’ve also looked into off-campus housing like The Poplar. What are y’alls opinions? Any other options? Etc.

  2. Owl City Pizza. When?
  3. Why does the 7/11 mysteriously lock its doors when I'm fried and want snacks??? It's supposed to be 24/7!!!!

Registering for Classes (Things I learned)

Registering for classes really early is limiting you to class options because they post more classes later on.

Sometimes you will have a class with a certain professor and then it switches to a teaching aide. Then, by the time you try to swap classes (to avoid being taught by someone with much less experience) all of the more experienced professors are gone. So, make sure you pay attention to your instructors before a semester starts.

When you try to switch your classes at the last minute it essentially resets you in the queue for when you would receive your refund (ex. I switch classes the day before school starts I will get my refund later than someone who did not switch).

Does temple have "double dipping" in any capacity?

For context I was accepted as an English major.

So does temple allow for a single course to satisfy multiple requirements? If so, I'm assuming that you obviously wouldn't get double the credits, meaning you'd still need to find a way to fulfill your required credits to graduate. Is there anyone who can give me some insight into this?

Left wing propaganda

What’s up with these class is basically just being left-wing propaganda and everybody in the class just agreeing with all this bullshit like no I don’t wanna learn what the establishment wants us to learn and all this commie bullshit. I want to be challenged all the teachers just have his biased view of the fucking world.

should I walk for both?

I don’t have any older siblings so I’m asking y’all—should I walk for both the university commencement and my own college’s or should I do one or the other? what’s the normal thing to do here/what do most people do?

EDIT: I can only walk for my specific school’s commencement bc I graduate in the fall and meet the requirements for my school, but not for the university commencement. Should I just walk for my school or wait until next spring?

Thief

To the person who stole my DoorDash order at least 45 minutes ago: you know how to fucking read, so had you read my name on that bag, you wouldn’t have had the audacity to make me spend another $30 from your carelessness. I’m so angry to the point where I wanna slap the culprit

Financial aid

Why would temple suddenly change my residency status on my financial aid to “no -resident” when I already paid my tuition in full and am a PA resident? They haven’t responded to me yet. Has this happened to anyone else?

DoorDash

I live in Morgan South and sometimes when I order food from DoorDash, or even groceries from instacart the drivers always seem to have trouble finding the building.

Even when I tell them to message me if they need help, sometimes they ignore it and leave my order in random places and I can’t even tell where it is. Once a driver left my order in the middle of N Broad St and it got stolen immediately. I couldn’t find the order bc the driver left it in a random spot. Once I finally found where they dropped it off, my order was gone

Does this problem happen with anyone else too? If not what do you guys tell your drivers
