Does everyone get some type of refund?

It looks like they turned most of the study rooms in Taconic into offices this semester so it's almost impossible to book there now. I also know you can book rooms in Massry. Any others?

has anyone taken this class with prof monaco? If so how did you study for it? Im struggling sm bc i dont understand his style of teaching where he’s just yelling into the void for an hour. I have a midterm coming up and i literally dk how to study for it bc he makes awful ppts where theres absolutely no details/explanations & i dont understand his explanations in class either. Is there a study guide i should be looking for? On top of that the final is cumulative im dreading it. At least with accounting classes the professors were helpful and tried breaking down concepts to make it easier for us

Hey everyone!

I’ve been sick this whole week and I live about 5 hours from campus, so I’m in a bit of a bind with an assignment for one of my journalism classes.

If anyone who comes across this could answer the following question in as detailed an answer as possible and give me permission to use it for my assignment, I would really appreciate it :)

what do you love or hate about UAlbany? or what has surprised you about the university?

thank you so much! 🫶🏻

I am an international student and this is my last semester at UAlbany. I am graduating this December. Do you know anyone who may be hiring or could hire me for a part-time position this semester?

Guys, a friendly reminder that the bathrooms are a shared space. You should all be flushing the toilet after you’re done and you should keep it as neat as you possible can. Thank you

Found under the stone square platforms

Turning it to the lost and found, i wrapped it in tissue paper

I accepted the loan through my ualbany over 48 hours ago after receiving an email they processed my loans. Why is it that I STILL dont have anything from them and there is nothing in my epay history????

Hi! I lost this key on Hamilton Street walking my dog yesterday! If you see it please let me know 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I know there’s no separate grad student housing on campus and I know grad students CAN live on campus, but how common is it? How would someone go about finding other grad students to live with on campus?

Very specific I knowww but I'm looking for one!

How do I fix this? After Like three days my roommate who said he was “clean” turned out to not be very clean. He kept shit neat until we did the roommate agreement and were lax about it. His trash can has no bag in it. He gets wrappers everywhere, and I don’t like having to pick up after him. He’s a slob and I hate it. I’ve noticed a new smell in the room and have no idea what it is, it smells like scalp kinda Idfk maybe he hasn’t washed his sheets since we moved in but I can’t like police that. When it was really bad I like kinda yelled “are you gonna fucking clean ever?” At him and he kept it clean for like a day. Now it’s back to how it was, trash overflowing.

Hello ! I am going to be a transfer at Ualbany as a junior ( which is technically a sophomore?) and was wondering the housing options ? Is it worth it ?

I was thinking of staying at my room rent area but want to get dorming for the weekdays for class or activities etc . My job is also equally close to both my place and uptown campus/downtown campus.

I was thinking is it really worth it for TUITION? How much would it cost me and would it be less or more then an regular admitted student then a transfer ( I heard people had to pay like 5k each semester and my goal is to make sure I don’t have no money at all to own the school that over 1,000$

Or should I just stay at my room rent and deal the transfer up and down to classes ?

I got a huge gap between classes and I commute by bus. I wanna head home and take a quick nap and go back later.

Anyone actually learn anything in this class?

Someone lost their phone in the lobby of the massry business building, I'll be returning it to the lost and found at the campus center.

Hey! I'm (20F) a transfer student on Colonial who never got a roommate! Wondering if anyone on colonial (or any campus really) is looking for friends/ a study group. I have plenty of room in my solo double for hangouts/ meetups but am struggling to meet new people! I can give out my insta, just DM me :)

I've applied to the 3 week corporate finance course at UAlbany and I'm keen on learning about any past experiences from those who've pursued similar courses. Additionally, I'm vegetarian and foods my priority xD. What are the food options I'll have?

Do people get bullied at uAlbany or is everyone inclusive? What about accom options (preferably very close to the business school)? Please share your insights

Hello! I am currently sophomore majoring in Biology and I absolutely hate it. It has taken a toll on me mentally but I have to get through this semester first before I can change my major to Psychology at HVCC. I am looking to transfer to UAlbany for the Fall 2025 semester. I went to RIT in my first year and it was alright. In my first year, I was a CIT major. In my fall semester, I came out with a 2.5 gpa. 17 credits with all B’s except for one D. In the spring, 13 credits with three A’s and two B’s. I transferred out because I wanted to do dental hygiene and I would be closer to home but then I wanted to get a bachelors so now I’m stuck at HVCC for a bit. Right now, I am taking three classes with two labs. I recently withdrew from Calc I because I joined my classes late from changing my major on the last day of add/drop week so I was incredibly behind. This made me into a part-time student. I also became behind in Biology I and the content has been really overwhelming that I might drop the class as well. If I do that, it will fall to 7 credits. I’m really not sure if I can manage any longer but then that will give me two withdraws in a semester and I’m incredibly worried that will affect me getting accepted to UAlbany, even though I plan to switch my major and I know I can do better if I do that. I chose Biology for the sake of my parents but it ultimately left me to be really stressed and unhappy. Please let me know if anyone who transferred has experienced this dilemma or smth similar. Thank you:(

I’m a freshman and im interested in getting a job, preferably on campus, for the second semester. Does anything open up throughout the year? And when would I be able to apply

Is anyone interested in joining a coding for social good club called Hack4Impact?

I'm thinking about starting Hack4Impact, but I wanted to know if there were people interested in the idea before moving forward.

Basically, Hack4Impact is a new club where members use their coding skills to develop tools for nonprofits and community organizations for social good. However, it’s not just coding, despite the word “Hack” in the name; there’ll be designing, project management, and outreach involved. It will also be a chapter of the national Hack4Impact collegiate organization.

If you would like to join, please let me know in the comments or send me a message.

Thanks for reading!

Hey y'all,

I work for NYSED (New York State Department of Education) and we're looking for interns. It's a Full Stack Web Dev role, where you'd be working with Java (Spring Boot) and Vue.js.

It is only available to U Albany students, so I thought I'd post here for some additional exposure. If you're interested, I believe you have to apply through your Comp Sci department. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

^ question above. I haven't tried buying food at the quads and I have no clue how they work either. I do know they accept munch money though

Hi, I’ve been to state quads lounge and most times the doors have been locked. What are the hours?

I’m looking for a place similar to the scene somewhere I can work on my laptop and order coffee & cocktails

Hey all, I’ve been sedentary most of my life and really want to make a change, particularly in terms of upper body and core strength, which is nonexistent as of right now.

So there’s a few things that are kind of a problem:

• essentially 0 prior experience lifting
• new to city, live off campus, and I don’t know anyone, let alone anyone who lifts
• bad depth perception / when benching stuff it’s hard for me to tell what is “up”

prime recipe to hurt myself inadvertently, even if following videos

With all this in mind… I’m just wondering, if one wants to learn how to lift, does UAlbany offer any classes or events of that sort? I know there are body weight classes, stretching, dancing etc. but is there anything for anyone who is specifically trying to learn to lift free weights. My guess is no because of all the liability involved, but just wondering. If not, what would you guys recommend for me to start this journey and learn?

Hey guys, so I’m thinking about transferring here but I don’t know much about the school, would you guys tell me more about the school?? Like how is the professors? Are they nice, helpful? How big is the class size? I heard you guys got two campuses, which one is better? Is the dining hall food good? Is the overall food quality good? Last but not least how is the social scene there? Good parties? Nice people? Easy to make friends? And anything else you guys feel like it would be important to know? Thank you😊
