I registered for a class I didn’t have the pre reqs for, but no error occurred when I registered. Should I anticipate to have the registration removed?

No clue how packages or letters get delivered, but if it's to a mailing office that I have to pick up those things from, am I able to if it's under my actual name? I'm trans and want to avoid having everything mailed to me under my legal name just cause that's not really great lol

HI, I used to get the discount code by email in previous semesters, days before the term begin.

I see it in the tuition as "Mandatory Universal Bus Pass (U-Pass)".

but didn't get any code, and the current one will be expiring today.

did SUO say something?

thanks

I saw a previous post about rollerblading, but I have more questions.

I heard that parts of Okanagan Rail Trail are paved, from downtown to UBCO 12km, is it smooth enough? And is there any other middle distance trail around UBCO?

Asked AI about laws against rollerblading on sidewalk, are city bylaws strict about this?

Also, would love to find some people to rollerblading with. And are there any school clubs related.

Thanks a lot🙏🏻

I’m a first year heading up in a couple days to move in. I’m in a single connected dorm in Nechako with the double XL beds, and I have a small 32in smart tv that I wouldn’t mind bringing up so that I’m not watching Netflix off of my laptop on my bed. I wouldn’t need a cable set up or anything just the tv itself but I’m wondering where or how to place it in my dorm. From my understanding we can’t bolt anything into the walls so I’m curious if anyone else has brought a tv up and how they placed it in their space.

Hey, I’m about to drive out to Kelowna today and am just finishing packing my stuff. I’m not entirely sure if I want to bring my pc, but at the same time I spent so much money building it two years ago, and I don’t want it to go to waste sitting at home. Also I really do enjoy gaming, editing, and doing schoolwork on it because it is so fast and the screen is much bigger. But my issue is, I don’t have anything prepared to transport it except a box, and I don’t want it to get damaged. The GPU is pretty big, so I would def have to remove it and put it in some kind of protective sleeve. Also, I’m pretty sure the desks in residence have like no space and I don’t have a monitor arm mount. So my question is, should I just leave it at home? I don’t have a laptop yet as I am waiting for one of my grants to come in, so if I don’t bring it I might be cooked at least for a couple of weeks. It also doesn’t have a wifi motherboard, but I do have a wifi adapter I currently use for it. Just scared that I’m going to lug it all this way and the wifi is going to be so buns I can’t even use it. So does anyone have any experience with having a PC in dorms? Is it worth it?

I reallllly want to see the syllabuses and really prepare myself lol. When do they usually get published on canvas?

22yo M: Looking for dance classes (salsa, Latin dance etc) at UBCO to keep myself fit and meet new people!

Hi everyone, as someone who stares at screens way too much and has had glasses/contacts for well over a decade, I am looking to find a new optometrist as I am starting school at UBCO. I was looking into the student insurance policy, and it says "the Plan covers one eye exam at 100%, up to $75, per 2 policy years. Eye exams must be performed by a licensed optometrist".

I've contacted the optometrist closest to me, and their rate is $175 for a standard eye appointment. 😬

In the past I've gone to the optometrist every year, so I would really like to find someone that is more affordable/more student oriented.

Thanks for the help!

Have heard concerns about road closures between Vancouver and Kelowna due to wildfires, is this true?

This might be a really dumb question, but does anybody know if the desk hutches are removable or can i lift them up? I think my monitor might be too big by like an inch heightwise. If this also helps I am living in skeena.

I’m taking an LOP for emag, but I can’t complete it by August 31 (which is when I’m supposed to have it done by). I think the earliest I might be able to take the final exam is September 7th, but at this point I don’t know if it’ll still be valid. I know it may not be valid for the first sem of winter, but does anyone know if I’m able to use the credits for the 2nd sem? I would’ve been able to complete it before then, but I’ve been really struggling with this class. Please help me I’m so stressed out!

Hi everyone,

I'm starting my second year this fall for English Literature. However, I found the ratings on RMP to be ambiguous at best. Hoping to get a bit of insight from those who had these profs. Are some fantastic (fair graders, enthusiastic, theory v. application, investing in student success, transparency, course pacing)? Some terrible (curve-grade, ambiguous with feedback, unfair marker, dull, vague, poor course structure)? I would deeply appreciate any info offered.

Any insight helps!

What’s the best time to go to the gym? Like with the least amount of people

Hi, I am about to start as a first year at UBCO, and I was wondering how easy it is to get a part time job either on campus or close to campus as a first year student. Ive heard that it is pretty doable at Vancouver campus but that is a lot more in a populated area than ubco is. Thanks!

Hello, I just completed my first year of APSC and received a failed standing and have to withdraw for 1 year from UBCO and take courses at a different University during this year . Has anyone gone through this process and had to take courses at a different place ? and what the situation looks like and how likely is it that I am allowed to be re admitted. Any advice or guidance regarding this would be appreciated, Thanks.
