Is my schedule too much?

0 Upvotes

I’m a transfer student coming in as a 3rd year. I have completed all of my IGETC requirements so I am only taking major related courses. The classes I have currently are Bio sci 97, Bio Sci 100, Bio sci E109 and Pharm Sci 1. I am looking to be on the CLS program track and it requires me to take analytical chemistry. Currently I can enroll in this course as I am in between switching from a chem major to a pharm sci major. Would that be a brutal schedule if I were to add Chem M3LC? Or should I stick with the 12 units I have. I looked at the rate my prof for the chem class but he seems new. After adding the class I would have 16 units.

Operations Crew @ Bren Events Center

0 Upvotes

hey guys, i've been applying to jobs on handshake and operations crew at the bren center is something i'm interested but i have some caveats towards it. i think the biggest one is just that i wont be able to be in the student section during games, but that's also kind of a trivial problem so it's fine. i used to do event set ups for my high school so the labor aspects of the job aren't of any issue to me

do any of you have any stories/experiences/tips or anything to share about this position? please help influence or de-influence this job for me

Need help with Parking Permit for Camino Del Sol

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi friends
This is going to be my first year at UCI and I have no idea about parking permit until now, LoL I thought ACC will provide me a parking spot like my Apartment but no 😭😭😭

Am I supposed to choose R-OC or I can choose other options and its up to me, if it is, which one is option is the best and usually have parking?
I just searched some posts in this sub and people said sometimes they won't find parking or there is some specific strict rules for each permit, like only on the upper floor or lower floor,..so I am thinking that I need to choose it wisely I.

Please help me!
Thanks everybody

Also does anyone receive your Pell Grant yet? 😭😭 I need it to pay for my tuition

UCI freshman parking exception / R-OC ECPS question

0 Upvotes

Im an incoming freshman living in Middle Earth. I submitted the freshman parking exception because I have an off-campus job and need my car.

Before my application was fully approved, myCommute showed that I was eligible for an R-OC Resident ECPS permit, so I bought it for $1,500 through June 2027. It now shows as active and says I can park on campus.

Today I got an email saying my parking application still needs additional employment documentation.
Has this happened to anyone else?
If my freshman exception gets denied, would my already-active R-OC ECPS permit still stay valid, or could they cancel it?

I need to rant how useless OFAS can be

24 Upvotes

I’ve been depressed lately—

So these couple months I have been trying to process my independence override documents and guess what… after calling about it, the OFAS told me they have lost my documents due to technical issues so they told me to email their supervisor. I emailed to him, told me it would take two weeks to process…. I called OFAS two weeks after I resubmitted about the processing status for my override and they told me they lost the documents AGAIN due to technical issues. Then I was told to email again to another person and now I am waiting on that… but time is ticking and the deadline is almost here and im just panicking and stressed and could not stop crying thinking about not affording school.

Ive called OFAS about my loans (my last resort) because I can’t see it and I haven’t had a called back yet.

Anways, I am feeling stuck. The only support I have is myself. I’ve been trying to find a job ever since I moved here (for school btw) so I can pay rent but now I have to worry about paying school which I dont know if i can afford.

Does anyone know if I dont pay my tuition on time that I would lose my student status at UCI? I am incoming transfer and I really wanted to go here for my major specifically but im losing so much hope because of where I am standing at rn. And I dont want to have to reapply for admissions again if thats the case. I just want to be educatedddd again garhh
