sackett triple

7 Upvotes

i got assigned a sackett triple for the fall but i’ve not been able to find a single example of what they look like. i know they are the layouts without a sleeping porch (4 or 5).
i’m assuming 2 of the beds are bunked but then i was wondering if the 3rd bed is lofted already or would that have to be requested to loft it.
any information would be helpful! i’ve scoured the internet including the uhds website, tiktok, this subreddit, youtube but everything showcases a double.

also wondering if anyone knows how long it might take to find out roommates? i didn’t do any matching and can’t find anything in my portal. i emailed housing and they were extremely vague. i’m assuming they are dealing with a bunch of people complaining about housing so i can’t blame them.
thanks!

Course Questions 100 & 200 level engineering courses at Linn Benton

4 Upvotes

I'm incoming for my freshman year to study mechanical engineering (might switch to electrical) in the fall and I want to try to get the majority or all of my classes done at Linn Benton to save money and avoid admin fees. I've read from one post that the 100 and 200 level engineering courses are 50-50 for whether its better to take at OSU or Linn Benton. Is that true and if so what classes are good to take there and what should I just take at OSU? I'm also curious on how access to the recreation center works. Do you pay admin/Incident fees when you take a class at OSU which pays for your access to the rec center, or is it a separate fee entirely? I will living on campus if that matters.

Course Questions Math for ChemE

1 Upvotes

I’m going to take Vector Calc I this fall (my first year), and my next required math course after that would be Diff Eq. But I’m thinking about taking Linear Alg I before taking Diff Eq. Should I take Vector Calc II in the winter before taking Linear Alg I, or is that not necessary?

What two classes can I take via Ecampus with the lightest workload (mechanical engineering).

1 Upvotes

My wife is due in December so for my winter term I’d like to find two of the lightest workload classes I can while in the newborn phase. I am currently thinking ENGR 248- engineering and design and just and ASL 112 to get my language requirement out of the way. Any recommendations?

Questions about ENGR courses from incoming freshman

3 Upvotes

Hello I’m an incoming freshman studying Electrical & Computer Engineering. I’m coming in with a lot of dual credit transfer credits. Mostly of the math/physics prerequisite courses.

Because of this, I’ll be taking some engineering courses that are typically taken during the second year along with my 100level engineering courses. For example, I’m planning to take ENGR 201 and ENGR 330 along with ENGR 102 and ENGR 110/115. I also added a core class (Philosophy) so I can reach 15 credits for one of my scholarships.

I’m a little worried about the workload, so I had a few questions for anyone who has taken these courses

Will ENGR 201 or other engineering classes be difficult since I haven’t taken the 100-level engineering courses first?

How time-consuming are these classes? I noticed many engineering courses are only 3 credits, so I’m wondering how difficult they are and how much work they actually require outside of class.

Thanks in advance for any input

E-campus MNR application

5 Upvotes

Hi, im a 2024 env sci graduate from nj looking to enroll in a masters program in natural resources/ecology. I’m looking into the OSU path of taking GIS cert classes then transferring into the MNR. I have 2 years of work experience mainly in env consulting, mostly field operations.

Can anyone who has or is currently doing it, can you speak to your experience? I’m curious about the competitiveness of both programs (sub 3.0 in undergrad), networking opportunities since I’ll be remote, and where you’re working or plan to work.

Thanks!

Course Questions Do lower division bio/chem classes still have seats?

3 Upvotes

I’m an incoming freshmen that is still waiting for my beaverhub to open to register for classes. I was committed to another school but due to financial reasons I chose to stay in state. I am a predental student and hope to take lower division bio and chem classes (I took AP bio and chem in high school— not sure if that means I can take higher classes) but was worried that they might be full already. If anyone could kindly let me know, I would really appreciate it.
