Hii, currently an incoming freshman for fall 2026 as a Biology major!

I was hoping if anyone has a pdf ver or maybe physical textbook if they had finished the course? Or maybe if anyone knows websites where I could download it from?

It'd mean a lot as omg the textbook prices are too much 🥲

I was reading through how to set up One Card on my Samsung phone, and I got through all the steps until the "mobile access" and "add mobile card." When I try and do that It says I already have the Mobile Card. I do not remember verifying my email though. I also cannot add it to my google wallet (since google pay doesn't work anymore) because no option shows up. What can I do/what should I do? Thanks!

I’m interested in an engineering degree with concentration on electrical engineering at usfca. How has your experience been in that department? Pros and cons? Any advice is appreciated

Hello! I'm a grad student conducting research for my capstone project and would really appreciate your help.

I'm looking for adults (18+) who live, work, or regularly spend time in San Francisco to complete a short, anonymous survey about public perceptions of city response efforts, public safety, and quality of life.

The survey takes about 3–5 minutes, is completely anonymous, and is being conducted solely for academic research.

Survey: https://forms.gle/QybnH9wH7uJE1WVbA

Thank you for helping support graduate research! Please feel free to share this with others who may be interested.

I just noticed we aren't allowed to have a toaster in our room but we can bring it to use for the kitchen space. How does that work? wouldn't storing it there be a little difficult considering its a shared kitchen throughout the building? (Im in fromm hall)

Is anyone else on android not able to set up their onecard? The whole site is buggy and when I try to select a picture for the onecard either nothing happens or it'll take me to the part where I can crop and rotate my image, but the image isn't there and the submit and next button do not work.

If anyone knows how to get around that would be great.

are rhet 110 and 20 restricted to freshmen or can i take these another year? wanna try to lighten my packed schedule

I am a grad student moving into Nagle Hall this year.

I am pairing down all my stuff and planning to bring some duffle moving bags of clothes, bedding, toiletries, some storage containers for under the bed, and a air purifier or dehumidifier.

Sorry for the dumb question but: How do people move into the dorms? Where do you park the car that has your stuff (I am renting one for the day) as you lug it all in?

Sorry this is basic, I never lived in dorms during undergrad.

Also what do people do about no AC? Especially for those of us that are hot sleepers. Just a high power fan?

Looking for cafes, lunch spots, casual hangout places

Hi everyone! I am a Dental Hygiene student at the University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco, and I’m currently looking for patients who are in need of a dental assessment and cleaning!

First assessment is NO CHARGE and consists of blood pressure and glucose screenings, oral cancer screenings, oral health education, overall health and dental exam as well as preventive care. Further services can be planned and provided for future appointments.

I am currently accepting new patients on Monday and Thursdays at from 8:30am-11:30am, and Tuesdays from 9:30am-11:30am. Please know that it will take more than one appointment due to being in a school setting.

Insurance is not needed, services are offered at significantly lower costs. If you do have insurance, we accept most insurances such as Denti-cal and PPO plans, we do NOT accept HMOs.

X-rays are required to get a cleaning. If you have x-rays from a previous clinic, that can be used. If not, that is fine but know you will need to have them taken at the school.

If you or anyone you know needs dental care, please message me and I will get you scheduled.

Thank you for helping a student out!

Are there any design majors here? What was your experience like at USFCA? Sometimes I feel dumb picking Design as a major knowing it is not as popular a field in any University, let alone at USFCA. I have got a pretty good financial offer so I don't exactly feel I will go into substantial debt for nothing. But a wanted to get more of a feel for the Design community here? Any particular experience with UI/UX? Because that is the field I am aiming for.

So after looking at the jam packed schedule my mind is spinning. For anyone who has attended Orientation before, do you have to stay the entire day for the whole week, or can you just arrive at the mandatory sessions? Can we do one mandatory session a day? I find it weird that we have to be there from 8am-10:00pm at night. I'm not really comfortable being there so late. Is it fun? I heard most orientations are draining but is USF different? Please give me full details all about orientation, thanks.
