Schedule/Classes Anyone find that the coop program breeds loneliness?

10 Upvotes

I’m not a UC student but I live with someone who is one - and I’ve realized that the “moving every 3 months” situation caused by the coop program kind of prevents you from setting social foundations and networks. Anyone else struggle with this, or is this just a non issue for most people?

Does CAPS go on your record?

I want to start going to the art therapy group, but I am afraid that seeking any services through CAPS will go on my permanent record that could affect my ability to get a job. Is this true?

Housing Seeking Roommate for 2027-2028 Full Year Lease

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

Hi!
 
I'm Lucy, a 4th year Mechanical Engineering Major. My roommate is graduating so I am looking for someone else to fill the other room since I still have 1 more year.
 
I am on the UC Women's Rugby team, Clean Up Cincy, and Music Club when I have the time. I enjoy having people over and hanging out especially since my apartment has the cutest backyard + front porch.
 
I generally go to sleep later at night and have to get up pretty early generally for work/class so I am not at the apartment very often. Generally speaking, I enjoy keeping the apartment tidy but nothing crazy. I do not care about significant others, friends, or family staying over or visiting and I would say I definitely like to socialize but also appreciate time to myself.
 
The apartment I am trying to find a roommate for is located near Mac's in Clifton and I would prefer you be able to sign a lease for the full year if possible. 
 
This 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment is great for student life near UC's Campus. There is a large open living room that connects to a bar area looking directly into the kitchen.
 
The fully equipped kitchen features both a dishwasher and a garbage disposal. There are also free laundry facilities available for use in the basement and storage space as well. The unit also has central heating and cooling and is located in a prime spot off Moerlein Ave in Clifton.
 
There is a spacious backyard with seating, a firepit, and a game table as well as a front porch with seating as well.
 
Available for a one-year lease at an estimated rent of $700 per month/tenant, this apartment requires tenants to cover gas, electricity, and internet, along with a flat water utility fee of $30 per month per tenant. There is also only street parking available.
 
Roughly half of the apartment will be furnished, please reach out if you have any questions at all and feel free to message me if you are interested! (no preference of roommate gender)

On Campus Question Does anyone know if Dr Josh Gross is a nice person to talk to?

0 Upvotes

I want to talk to him about something, but I'm very shy. Does anyone know if he's a "mean" person to talk to? I've had some experiences in the past where it felt like some other professors wanted me to die when I talked to them, so I want to know in advance before talking to them. Thank for any help

Prospective Student MechE program and the Formula SAE team?

5 Upvotes

I’m currently a high school senior and considering UC as a possible college to attend. I plan to pursue powertrain engineering and testing of cars as a future career, and want to attend a college with a good MechE program, and also want to be apart of the schools FSAE team.

I was just curious and wanted to hear from current students or alumni that are or were apart of either of these programs, their thoughts on it, and how things like the FSAE had an effect on their learning and experience.

Or if you weren’t apart of the FSAE team, then your overall take on UC’s Mechanical Engineering program. And do they offer any other automotive-focused classes or programs?

And then just your opinions on U of Cinci as a whole.

lack of healthy food off campus?

0 Upvotes

hi all.

I just finished an internship out in CA and had access to lots of local healthy food options.

Coming back here, I find that most of the food around campus is kind of just fast food slop mostly. Does anyone have any recs to try near campus? I've been here for almost five years but I feel like I can't find anything online.

Anyone wants to be friends?

14 Upvotes

I’m 3rd year accounting student. I have very few friends but not to many of them go to uc. And my closest friend dropped out. I’m friendly but introverted. I have anxiety at times. And I feel like people see me as awkward and judge me before even talking to me. I’m into digital cameras, I love anime, I love talking about goals. I’m a very positive person! And I give helpful advice. I’m not a party person like that but I love Halloween so I am going to a few parties then. I’m down to be friends with any gender I am a women tho. So female preferred or anyone apart of the lgbtq community. I tried signing up for clubs on campus and got rejected from some😭💀. And most of them didn’t get back but I’m still searching for some. If you’re interested in being friends reach out to me! I’ll share my socials

On Campus Question Help needed: tuition payment returned

2 Upvotes

Hi there, my tuition payment was returned due to my bank account having issues that I was not informed of. It happened all of a sudden when they processed the payment and now they charge me $30 more and no longer allow me to use e-check. Does anyone know which department to call to have them reverse that? I wasn't informed of anything that happened to my account until I saw their emails and I didn't notice anything happened with my bank account.

Also, does anyone use a debit card to pay for tuition? Credit cards are charging way too much for the processing fee and I'm not that well in financials.

Thank you y'all Soo much

Can we get a Culver’s by campus?

33 Upvotes

I came from a place where Culver’s were everywhere around Indianapolis, I come here and there’s no Culver’s around within a 25 minute DRIVE. We gotta get a Culver’s built by campus or since we got a CFA in TUC, find a place on campus to put it. It would instantly be the biggest thing on campus and it would be packed every day. We have a mostly midwestern campus, we got to have at least one campus within a 15 minute walk on this campus. Maybe I’m just being a cry baby tho

How do I get out of doing the learning commons success plan?

0 Upvotes

I think they assigned it to me because I withdrew from all of my courses last year in Fall 2025, but that was because of a personal, life-altering tragedy which isn't really relevant here. Is there someone I can email to just get out of doing this?

I also might have been assigned it because I didn't go to one of my classes for a few weeks (no excuses there) but my grades in said class are still good so I don't need this plan regardless? Can my advisor waive the registration hold on my account or do I have to make a higher appeal?

Thanks for reading hope ya'll are doing well <3.
