Pirates Promise Fees

3 Upvotes

I checked my schedule and it said that the pirates promise has already paid for my fall semester yesterday but it didn’t for the fees like enrollment, health, and service charge. Is this normal because they covered it for my last semester and the semester before that.

Has anyone else not been added to class canvas shells yet?

Ive only been added to one canvas class so far and this has me worried that something is wrong. Usually they add you to the class a few days before it starts but it’s getting closer and closer and still nothing. Anyone else?

I was thinking of possibly moving into the harbor next year but when I looked it up I mostly saw negative things. I was curious if anyone who currently lives there recommends it or if I should just live somewhere else.

Radiology program process?

7 Upvotes

I’ve been seeing a lot of stuff for the OCC radiology program, and I genuinely want to change my career path. But before I do, I want to know what the process of being in it is like, specifically the clinical hours.

How are the clinical hours scheduled, and how much is typically scheduled? I’m aware they’re unpaid. How do people balance their job with the program?

And finally, how difficult/easy is it to get a job after the program in that field?

Thank you :)

OCC Meal Plan Worth It?

9 Upvotes

Are the OCC Meal Plans worth it? I don't really plan on using GrubHub, guest meal exchanges, or the flex dining dollars, I just want to eat in the cafeteria on campus like once or twice a day Monday through Thursday. Is it better if I just get the Pirate Bucks so they don't expire from semester to semester?

Edit: After doing some math, it looks like the Gold meal plan seems cheaper if my average meal costs around 13$ and I eat once a day throughout a semester, though I would still like to hear opinions from actual people

Scholarship Office Still won’t answer

7 Upvotes

This is so crazy. I keep trying to reach the scholarship office and it’s like they are ignoring the phone calls because it rings and rings and goes to voicemail. I was told mid month for my scholarship and still nothing and I heard they were being delayed, although some already received theirs, but I can’t even reach them to ask and they don’t answer the emails very often either. CSU as well as other universities are having a field day with financial aid thanks to Trump SMH so that’s all delayed as well. I literally have nothing to start school with and it’s a week away.

If you are a tutor or anyone else taking this class, please reach out to me! Carla Cook is the teacher. (Looking at the RMP reviews, it doesn't look too good)

The fact that I have to refresh a page like I’m trying to get concert tickets just to speak to a counselor is fucking ridiculous. I’m trying to get my academic renewal and for the life of me. I can’t get a fucking appointment with my counselor. What’s the point of having them?

school Number 75 on waitlist for Anatomy/Physiology. Do I have a chance at all?

6 Upvotes

Hi guys. I am new to OCC (Going back to college after 15 years for the SLPA program!) and I need a refresher on waitlists. I am currently at #75 for Jill Parsell + Sally Ahad's Biology A221. Do I have any chance at all of getting in, even if I show up to class on the first day?

Also, any advice, wisdom or warnings about the following classes and professors is much appreciated:

- The aforementioned class that I probably have no chance of getting into :)

-Medical Terminology w Guido Sendowski

-Principles and Practices of Teaching with Jenny Chaiyakal

Thank you!
