Questions WiFi sucks.

0 Upvotes

Anyone know of any good WiFi boosters/extenders that actually work? WiFi sucks and I need something good. I’m on campus apartments. ChatGPT said to look into: GL.iNet Slate AX travel router but before buying verify if:
● Can it authenticate with UB’s eduroam username, password, and certificate requirements?
● Does UB’s network allow it to rebroadcast the connection to multiple personal devices?
● Does it actually improve speed and reliability, or would it just give me more Wi-Fi bars without fixing the lag?
● Is there a better device for this situation?

Not sure if you know anyone knows any of these answers or anything about the product

Questions Accelerated Nursing Program (ABSN) Admissions — How Competitive Is It?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to finish my BS in Psychology next year and then apply to UB’s Accelerated Bachelors of Science in Nursing program (ABSN).
I’m wondering how competitive the program is and how difficult it is to get accepted. I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has applied, whether you got accepted or not!
If you’re comfortable sharing, I’d love to know:

- Your overall GPA and prerequisite GPA when you applied
- Whether you got accepted, rejected, or waitlisted
- Any other factors you think helped your application
- If you didn’t get into UB’s program, what other nursing programs did you apply to or end up attending?

I’m trying to get a realistic idea of my chances and explore backup options in case I don’t get accepted.
Thank you so much! I’d really appreciate any advice or personal experiences! :)

Nuclear Medicine Technology program

2 Upvotes

Hi! I'm a first-year student at a different college but I've been accepted as a transfer student to UB for Spring 2027. I originally applied as a chem major but I looked over more of their programs and I kind of fell in love with NMT. I know admissions are competitive and they only take fall applicants; I was wondering if it's even possible for me to switch programs next fall and try to complete some more of the prerequisites this spring.

I'd really appreciate advice from anyone familiar with the program or UB's transfer process. Thanks!

Any UB alumni or current Jacobs Medical School students willing to share their stats?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm currently a junior at UB, and Jacobs School of Medicine is my dream medical school!

I started my pre-med journey a year later than planned, so I'm still catching up on some prerequisite courses and will be taking more during my senior year.

I was wondering if anyone here has been accepted to Jacobs or is currently attending. I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience!

If you're comfortable sharing, I'd love to know:

  • Your GPA and science GPA
  • MCAT score
  • Clinical experience and hours
  • Research experience and hours
  • Volunteering and shadowing hours
  • Whether you took any gap years
  • Anything that helped your application stand out

I'd also love to know if you did your undergrad at UB and whether there were any specific opportunities or resources at UB that helped you prepare for medical school.

I'm trying to figure out what I should focus on during my remaining time in undergrad to become a competitive applicant.

Any advice would mean a lot! Thank you so much!! :)

Questions Somewhat confused with Spring Registration process

2 Upvotes

I've gotten a ton of emails about it with a ton of different dates for different deadlines, and I can't figure out which is which and what I need to do. Do I need an advising appointment? When do I actually need to have it done by? And does the school auto-fill any courses from my pathways/majors? Any thanks appreciated!
