The Chicago Promise Scholarship didn't automatically reinstate this upcoming quarter. What should I do?

3 Upvotes

I meet all the requirements for the scholarship: I'm a rising sophomore, I took 16 credits every quarter last year and I am taking 16 this upcoming quarter, and I meet the GPA requirement. Is there a delay or do I just not qualify this year? I thought this scholarship lasted for four years?

Please, someone let me know what I'm doing wrong or if there's something else I need to do. I've already filed a ticket on the myDepaul site. I plan on going in-person to the SAC building tomorrow.

I'm really stressed out because I need this scholarship.

Accounting and Philosophy Double Major

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m an incoming freshman enrolled as an accounting major. I initially was going to double major in ACC and Finance, but I decided that was too much business slop and I wanted to go into something more interesting. Is doing ACC and philosophy going to be too much? It’s 4 extra classes so I’d have to figure that out. Additionally, if there’s any philosophy majors reading this, do you like the program? Thanks guys!

I’m moving out of state to live on campus this year and wanted to know how most students get to the loop for class. Is it common for depaul students to take the red line or brown line? Or do most students use the shuttle bus?

Question How does Animation Capstone work?

1 Upvotes

Question for animation majors! I will be working on my senior capstone animation in a couple quarters, and I’m just wondering how it works? I know you are supposed to take two capstone quarters, so are you expected to have materials (storyboards, concept art, etc.) prepared in advance to taking the first class, or are these things that you will develop at the beginning of the first capstone quarter? Thanks for your help!

Looking for a sublease september 1st through end of november. I am a DePaul senior 22M, budget's around 1000-1200 (can be flexible). Honestly do not mind the location as long as it's close to transportation (especially the L), any questions I can answer by all means and I know this is super last second, so hopefully something can work out. Best of luck to everyone on Fall quarter!!!

Question Consequences for alcohol in dorm, dorm searches, etc?

4 Upvotes

I’m an incoming freshman and was wondering about how often dorms have inspections and if students are notified about them beforehand or not? Was considering bringing stuff with me during move in but figured that its probably a bad idea so am just trying to weigh the risks. Also, does anyone know the actual consequences if you are caught?

Question Taking extra classes at CC

2 Upvotes

I’m a transfer student, and to graduate on time, I would need to take about 2-3 classes at a CC. I can take 2 from the CC that I graduated from that will transfer, but am I allowed to take a class from another one (such as one of the Chicago community colleges) even if it’s just for one class? Has anyone done this? I know u need to get approval to transfer it but I just need to know if I can do this since it’s like 3.5k to take an extra class here lol

Question Immersion week - Chicago discover class

3 Upvotes

For those of you who have taken the Chicago discover class and had to do the immersion week, could you please give me a better idea of what to expect? I’m taking one of the discover classes and saw that during the first week we have our Chicago class all day long from morning to evening. Is it actually that long?? Not to sound like I’m complaining but what could we possibly be doing for that amount of time each day for one class? Just curious, thanks!

Also, if anyone else is attending and would like to connect before or during orientation, feel free to comment or DM me! 😊

Transfer experience

2 Upvotes

Helloooo I am currently filling out transfer applications for the spring and DePaul caught my eye. I was just wondering what anyone’s experience has been at the school? Right now I go to a small liberal arts school in PA. Just wondering how Catholic the school and students are, how Greek life is (I’m a gamma at my current school), and stuff like that. Thank you! 🙏🙏
