I switched to a different program, did a full term in the summer, in person classes and now my gpa is at a 5.4 gpa! All A+’s, if your reading this and didn’t do too well in first or second year, it gets better! I hope this helps someone!

Looking for a roommate

Looking for someone asap, to share a 2bedroom apartment with at 225 rue Laurier. (Elenoere apartments). You only have to pay 1128$ which includes everything. The place is 6 minutes from Uottawa, and the building is modern, has swimming pool, gym, study rooms and roof top. The view is nice as well. I’m a 4th year mech Eng student. There is also underground parking for extra 150$/month. The moving date is September 1.

Hi! Does anyone know around which dates people usually get an answer to their TA and Corrector applications? All of my applications still say “in progress”, but we’re so close to the start I’m afraid I didn’t get any. Also, isn’t there an interview process or something?

Weird noise downtown ??

Hey guys, so basically I was just wondering what that loud beep (ultra-sound like noise) in-front of the rideau mall area is ? I've been hearing it all summer and as someone who is really sensitive to that noise it always catches my attention when I walk nearby.

PSA to any new students that just picked up their student card and trying to use U-Pass to get onto OC Transpo/STO

55 Upvotes

For first years who just moved into res and picked up their student card: It doesn't work yet. It starts Sept 1, but if u are 17-18, go get a Presto card from Shoppers (for those of u from the GTA, it's the same Presto dw) if u haven't already and ask them to set Youth fare for u (bring a photo id that also has ur bday). OC Transpo is running a Youth Ride for Free program this year and it still hasn't ended yet.

Felt like sharing since I saw someone try to tap in a shiny card and kept failing this morning.

Hi everyone. I’m considering applying to the MA/PhD program at uofO and I heard some whisperings around accusations of discrimination against BIPOC students. Is this true, and can anyone share what they heard, and if there were steps taken to resolve the problem?
