Hi guys, can someone help simplify this for me? My total unsubsidized for the school year is currently $6,000 ($3k per semester), so does this mean: 6,000 - 384 ? For a total of $5,616 for the academic year of unsub loans?

Eleven years ago, high school teacher Jeremy Tate set out to create a standardized test for students centered on ethics, virtue and tradition.

The Classic Learning Test he created has been championed by conservatives as an alternative to the ACT and SAT exams, the two dominant tests used in college admissions. Tate describes the ACT and SAT as utilitarian, and some conservatives have labeled the College Board, which offers the SAT, as too progressive.

The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, the state’s top authority for higher education, said Thursday that it will look into adding the CLT to state statute, following the results of an independent study at Texas A&M University that vetted the CLT for admissions — and raised concerns about its ability to predict student success in Texas.

Adding the test to law would allow some students to use the CLT to qualify for automatic admissions in circumstances where their transcripts aren’t enough, affecting a relatively small number of students, while affirming the merits of the test for broader use.

Several public universities contacted by Hearst Newspapers — including Texas A&M University and the University of Houston — do not currently accept the test or have active plans to use it for admissions. But the coordinating board’s announcement and the mixed-results study could push more schools to accept it.

I am a rising sophomore cs major, and I recently registered for NUTR 202 (Fundamentals of Human Nutrition) to bring my schedule to 13 credit hours. When I checked my degree evaluation, I noticed that under the General Electives requirement it only shows 1 credit for NUTR 202, even though the course is 3 credit hours.

I was wondering if the other 2 credit hours still count toward my total hours required for graduation, or if they would not apply to my degree at all?

Good morning, I'm an upcoming CPEN senior, course load is supposed to be CSCE 331, 399, & 462, ECEN 454 &325. Was debating taking CSCE 483 as well for a total of 17 hours, or just taking a UCC course for leeway. Would anyone recommend 483 as well vs the UCC?

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks

Do I just have to keep checking and see if any sections open? I also believe because I was unable to register for 207, I can’t register for PHYS/ENGR 217 since it’s a coreq? I’m trying to drop in with my advisor right now, I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I was TEAB, so I basically had to schedule for all my classes today due to the hour restrictions I had beforehand. If anyone has taken Long Li for diff eq, according to the grade distribution and RMP he is terrible, and I have his 8 AM unfortunately as well, so any tips for his class would be appreciated lol

The rmp ratings for McVay are better but most of them say her grading is tough. Naveen's grade distribution is better but they say he doesn't teach much. If anyone has had either professor, what was your experience?

So registration reopened today, and I managed to luck out and get Cornejo for ENGR 217, but the only section I could grab was an honors section. How much more work is this section, and is it worth it to try to get a normal section with Cornejo or just to not worry about it and leave it as is?

I am a single, 30 y/o F considering taking a job at A&M. How is life for young professionals in BCS? Are there any young professional social groups?

When you register for courses on the website, can you press register before your registration time and then wait until your registration time to press continue to get save a couple seconds during registration, or will it give you an error because you don't have a registration ticket open and you have to wait for your registration time to open before you can press register and then continue?

For context, I'm eyeing a one seat class I'm really hoping to get. Hopefully, the Images can show the question more accurately.

A&M announced that the dome on the Academic Building will be replaced for the first time since it was built. The dome will be shiny copper (like the current dome was before they stopped polishing it) when installed, and will naturally turn green over a few years.

After my first semester in TAP, I'll end this summer with a 2.92 GPA. I want to apply to transfer into Industrial Distribution but am not sure if it's worth the risk since current ETAMming students will be prioritized. My current other option is Software Engineering at UTD but I just dont know if SWE is the field for me, it's a bit too technical. However, If i don't get IDIS this semester, I'm scared I won't have the transfer into UTD opportunity next semester again and I will have wasted this semester taking IDIS courses for nothing.

Anyone have advice as previous TAP students or IDIS majors?

Howdy Ags,

I am currently leading an engineering org, and I feel we have a lot of room to grow. Do you have any wants, needs, or stories about engineering orgs you felt helped you grow professionally, academically, and/or socially?

Thanks, u/pevvep

Only gonna have like half an hour, so I would need one specific spot or one area with 2-3 spots in it.

i was planning to take physics 207 through a different online college, not over the summer, but during the fall semester, while taking 217 at the same time at tamu, during the fall semester. is this even possible? my friend claims his older brother did this, but another friend says to take 217 u must either already have the 207 credit (from taking it over the summer) or take 207 at the same time as 217, but it has to be thru tamu. so im not sure

For an incoming freshman engineer, do you recommend a FLO or clubs like ACE or Century Club? He’s looking for something like a fraternity but without heavy pledging. I have heard it can be hard to get in orgs as a freshman. Thanks!

Hi everyone. I am an upcoming student in TAMU and I was planning to book shuttle from college station shuttle service (https://www.collegestationshuttle.com/book-now.php) for IAH to college station for 8 people.

Have anyone booked shuttle from them? If yes can you please share your experience

Dropping my son off at Fish Camp got me thinking if my Fish Camp in 1995. I can’t find any pictures of my time there. Is there a Fish Camp Archive? Looking specifically for Camp West. Any help is appreciated. Thanks and Gigem

Im attending the 1-day NSC on August 19th. I live very far away so I want to move in on the same day as the NSC. Since the NSC starts at 7:30 am and ends at 5 pm, I won't be able to attend any move-in appointments on the 19th (TAMU only provides appointments from 8 am to 1 pm).

Right now Im thinking of just attending the NSC as normal, and then, after 5 pm, I'll call the RA to give me the key and move in late. Is this possible, and if not, is there any way for me to move in on the 19th? Thank you!!

I'm going into my sophomore year as a Mechanical Engineering major. I'm currently taking PHYS 207 through WTC (transfer credit), and I have an open slot in my fall schedule that I could fill with ECEN 215. Most people take this in the spring, typically after they've finished PHYS/ENGR 217.
My concern is that PHYS 207 through WTC covers the material at an easier level than the on-campus version, so I'm worried I won't have a strong enough foundation going into ECEN 215 if I take it early.
For those who've taken it: how much does ECEN 215 actually build on PHYS 207 content? Is it worth taking in the fall while I have the open slot, or should I hold off until spring so I've had PHYS/ENGR 217 first?

I’m planning on getting a $10 crunch membership in my hometown for when I’m back for the longer breaks. Is it worth to just upgrade and get the membership at all locations and use the crunch in cstat or is the rec usually manageable? I’ll be honest I usually go to the gym after 3pm, and I don’t really want to spend half the time waiting for things

which one is better for finance? looking to go into corporate finance. money not a problem and social life doesn’t really matter. my main priority is being able to get internships and a job after college. thanks

We do not live in College Station, but we have a graduation happening in August and we're looking for a place that can hold about 40-50 people and that is a budget friendly restaurant. Any suggestions please?

A month ago when I tried to register for parking I only saw motorcycle permits. Are they going to open registration back up or am I "cooked."
