No meal plan but eat at dinning hall

I’ve been eating at the dinning hall and wondered how/when/if I get charged for it since I never actually chose a meal plan? Should I choose a meal plan (I’m a commuter) or just pay for my own food. Also can I continue eating at the dinning hall without a meal plan or paying? Will I get charged for it later? Soo many questions!

Organic chemistry tutoring

www.organicchemistrytutoring.ca

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?

  • Every tutor knows the subject, but not every tutor knows how to transfer that knowledge to a student. I do.
  • I tutor organic chemistry full time, it’s not a hobby or side-gig. When you book with me, you’ll be working only with me, not random people at an agency.
  • You’ll be learning problem solving through organic chemistry, which you can apply to many other subjects.
  • Your learning will be customized to your specific needs

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!

Mike

Any apartment recs?

Looking around for apartments for next year with 1-2 roommates but it seems like most of the ones within walking distance to campus are crazy expensive. A couple ones ive looked at also seem pretty shady with hidden costs. Does anyone know some good places close to campus?

Making friends at WCU

Hey everyone! i’ve been accepted into WCU and I’ve heard a few things about the social scene that I’m hoping you can clarify. From what I’ve gathered, a lot students at WCU already know each other before attending, which makes me concerned that it might be harder to make new friends once I get there. I’ve been checking out the WCU Meet page on instagram, and honestly, it looks like a lot of sorority girls who I probably wouldn’t get along with. There’s nothing wrong with being a sorority girl, but just to be real, I wouldn’t fit in with that type of crowd.

How diverse is the student body, socially and in terms of backgrounds? Is it mostly the sorority/fraternity scene, or are there other ways to connect with people? Any insight would be super helpful! Thanks!

How competitive is the Honors College?

I applied for the honors college and have my interview in January, but my academics aren’t amazing but I’d say my extracurriculars are pretty top tier, so I was just curious how competitive the Honors College is in general.

I can PM anyone and tell them my specific stats if they’d like.

Montgomery vs Post 9/11

Question for my Veterans who are in WCU utilizing their GI bill. Which GI bill have you chosen? A buddy of mine recommended the post 9/11 since it covers your tuition but wouldn't the Montgomery give you more money in the long run? I've somewhat done research into which one would be better and keep getting myself confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thinking about going to West Chester for grad school. Can I get some pros and cons please?

I applied to the clinical mental health counseling grad program (Over a month ago still haven’t heard back) and I have some friends at West Chester but I can never get a solid answer from them about their feelings for West Chester. I have also seen several TikTok’s about how bad West Chester is but I’ve seen several comments defending the school like their life depended on it. Is the school worth it?

WCU’s art department?

I'm currently an HS senior and am considering West Chester University as an option. As someone who's going to be majoring in art, does anyone have any experience with WCU's art department? Or just other general things to note about the school?

Financial Aid Office

The people that work at the financial aid office are extremely unhelpful. I understand being frustrated from being asked the same questions but maybe release statements and updates on what’s going on, especially with this whole PA State Grant thing being delayed. Everytime I call they sound miserable and are mumbling into the phone, and make it as though it’s an inconvenience I’m calling them asking about financial aid.

Concern about Housing

Hello, I will be a college freshman next year and am strongly considering WCU. However, I've heard housing right now is super competitive. The person I will be rooming with will be a transfer student sophomore next year. We need someplace with a private/semi-private bathroom (either shared between us or shared between us and 1 other unit) and obviously it has to house freshmen and sophomores, but those are the only requirements. What's the likelihood of being able to get this?

Question about mid-year transfer

Here is the situation. Student is a freshman and somewhat unhappy at his present university in the midwest. He applies to West Chester University as a transfer for upcoming spring semester (hoping to be happy closer to home). As part of the West Chester transfer application, student sent High School Transcript (which has great grades) and current college transcript, which had no grades yet. Student receives an acceptance letter for spring semester, which says that he has been accepted but it also says that acceptance is "contingent upon" his successful completion of his current coursework. One of the current classes that student is in danger of failing is similar to WCU's FYE and, if student does fail, he is not given an F he is simply given an "NC" (no credit). Student is in danger of getting a NC (failing). Student is also in danger of failing his sociology class. His other two classes are at an A and he will probably not fail (and will probably get an A ) those. If student fails a class and gets a "No Credit" in the other, will West Chester revoke his acceptance? Or, will they simply not accept those credits (obviously) and still let him attend? Any one know?

My son is considering WCUPA. Need advice.

My son is a HS senior, all AP and honors classes, and top 10 class rank. He’s thinking of majoring in economics or business. Will be living on campus and applied to the honors program. Been doing some research but there’s only so much you can glean from those sources. Anyone willing to share some insight? Need to know the good, the bad, and the ugly.

What’s the school’s overall reputation?

How are the professors and advisors for someone majoring in business or economics?

How’s living in the dorms?

How are the dining options? Food any good?

How’s the honors program?

Does the school help students find internships during college and full-time employment after graduation? Is the school any good at it?

What’s one thing you love and one thing you hate (or needs improvement) about WCU?

Is there anything you wish you knew about WCU before you (or your child) attended?
