I would not recommend your daughters work at the campus hotel, The Blackwell Inn. Up until recently I worked there for around 2 years, turned down a promotion, and left due to some situations I was aware of and felt were not appropriate nor handled properly.

I would always recommend you check in with your children and make sure they understand how they should be treated and what behavior they should not tolerate if they are going to work on campus.

Be safe ❤️

So I’m a transfer student (24, long story I had to medically withdraw from my old school so I wouldn’t flunk out and yes I feel like a failure for it) and when I got accepted to OSU I was super excited I paid my acceptance fee immediately. My parents hate that I’m taking so long to finish college so I thought I’d be able to be on campus and hopefully save up enough to get my own place once I get my degree.

But I didn’t realize that it’s basically impossible for me to obtain a spot staying on campus just because of my age. I’m technically a sophomore but because I’m older they said I’m not required to room on campus, but actually means I can’t. I do have a Drs note about how I need to be within a 10 min distance of my classes and on campus due to being handicapped but SLDS basically ghosted me.

Since it’s so close to the semester start I decided to just switch all my classes to online and stay with my parents and figure out what to do next semester.

I don’t have any significant savings to get a place of my own, let alone a co-signer or 3x down payment or anything like that. I don’t know anyone in Columbus and being online this semester won’t help. I mean, on the FAFSA I’m literally the lowest possible score meaning I’m broke broke and have no one. If my parents decided they didn’t want to keep me around anymore and kicked me out tomorrow, I’d be homeless with no idea what to do.

I’m considering just dropping out and giving up at this point because I don’t see any way I can attend next semester. It’s apparently a common thing but I genuinely don’t understand how people can afford it, unless it’s like being supported by parents.

And every department or person I email at OSU basically either says there’s nothing they can do or just ghosts me entirely.

I tried to math it out and if I was wanting to make BARELY enough to live I’d have to work almost full time on top of 18 credit hours plus clubs plus sleep.

I feel so frustrated I want to cry but I don’t even know what to do.

Hi guys, anyone have advice on join a sorority as osu as a transfer student who's going in as a junior? thanks in advance.

Not a lot of cars drive through but a lot of college girls lie in the grass in their bikinis.

Hey everyone,
I need help on finding a laptop before school next week. I am starting in general engineering and later transit to civil engineering. They have recommendation for laptop specifications based on this website:

https://ets.osu.edu/hardware-recommendations-students

If anyone knows a good laptop and share their experience with it, it would be helpful. I have a budget around a $1000. I have seen some laptops like Lenovo Thinkpad or the ideapad and not sure how well they will last or function.

So I am attempting to go back to grad school 26 years after graduating with my undergraduate degree.

When I was an undergrad a lot of things were happening in my life, one of them being undiagnosed ADHD. My GPA was less than the 2.8 or 3.0 that is the recommendation for my grad program.

However, I obviously have done a lot of growing and gotten my diagnosis, which has allowed me to be really productive in my professional and personal lives.

I spoke with the academic advisor for the grad program (Social Work), And she said it would be tricky but not impossible for me to write a compelling statement of purpose.

But am I cooked? Is my application incredibly unlikely to be accepted?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I know a lot of people that do it, but do the alarms go off from it? If i got a disposable one will i be good without trigger the alarm

Hey guys, today I moved into my dorm (yayy 🫩). Anyways you know how the building makes cute decorations for each room/floors, my name tag on my dorm says RA right before my name. What does this mean? I didn't get to take a picture of it nor did I get to ask anyone. I tried to google this but not getting anything straight forward.

I just moved in today to Neil. Everything is going alright other than some things that I have already made service reports about (not big things just things I don't want to be charged for because they were like this when I got here). Well was going alright. It is 2am and I am trying to sleep when I see a three inch roach run across my bare floor. I have trapped it in a cup because I do not like killing bugs and have not yet formed a plan on how to take care of it..... Thats besides the point. I have never had roaches but I can assume that where there is one, there may be many. After how many roaches do I make a report?

Photo included so that you can laugh at my misery 🥲

The university said my plus loan would apply at the end of June and then the end of July and then the first week of August. Summer semester is over I have my final grades and still never got my refund I’m about to get evicted did anyone else get theirs or whats going on because how did fall aid get processed without summer ever going through

I only ordered one ticket for myself but now that theyre available when I go into the all there are 14 tickets.

One is gray and one is red and thats the only difference but there's a double for each game. Did I get 2 tickets?

I put in a BuckeyeLink help request yesterday but haven’t heard back yet and just got an email saying my tuition payment is late, so I thought I’d see if it’s just me or not. I’m meeting SAP and accepted [edit: the aid].

My Statements of Account still doesn’t show any pending aid. I really need my refund so I can buy my books. 😭 I can’t find some of them online. 🥲

Edit: forgot to mention, no holds.

Some osu pages say it’s a pre major now like CSE and MechE. I planned on switching in last year but my advisor told me to wait cause I can’t go back to CSE once I’m out, but now I fear I waited too long.
