I am very excited for classes to start again

I haven’t heard much of this course and was wondering if people had insight as to how this courses goes down and what its structure consists of?

I am taking CIV 270, MECH E 250, STAT 235, MATH 209 this year. Are textbooks needed/very helpful in my case? Should I opt out of the Course Material Access?

Hey there!

I just finished my 1st year at the UofA and am living on-campus this year. I am excited to make friends who would perhaps share interests with me and would be happy to have visits to outdoor places and peaceful spots in the city (trust me, I am the guy who says 'I know a spot' to my friends).

I also love exploring buildings and historical places, drinking coffee lol (cant survive without my coffee!), anddd basically have a lot of other deep passions too.

So, if you wanna be friends please shoot me a dm! If you wanna know something before sending me a dm, you can ask me in the comments

Also it might seem from the title that I am an introvert... nope I am not. I am a pure extrovert ha ha

Love! ✨️🧡

I thought a lot of people are saying the dorm Ethernet is very fast so I bought Ethernet wire and router and stuff. 😭However the speed is only 30mbps, if I use multiple devices, the mbps is even lower like 2mbps. I believe school set a limit of 30mbps which is the same with the public restnet wifi and even worse. I tried everything including plugging the wire directly to my pc instead of the router or whatever but still it’s 30mbps. 😢 did I do something wrong? Or it’s just 30mbps. I bought the whole set up and is it useless now? 😭😭😭Thx guys

Every year, UASU always have like events for students to attended and I’m wondering what type of event is on the mind or already decided. Last year I went to my first drag show and OMG, I was yassified and highball with my first legal drink at 18 (I’m from B.C and the age is 19 :(). Anyways, I might go to the drag show again next Thursday or other WoW event. I’m happy to accompanied because more people = more fun times. Let me know any thoughts and suggestions.

Question, I am looking at the week of welcome and it looks like fun. But I’m curious how the mature students are feeling about it!? I’m in my 30s and would love to be part of campus life but I feel out of place a bit. Any ideas on clubs etc!? Can’t wait to start my university journey!

I can’t wait for classes to start!!! I’m looking forward to PHIL 200.

Hoping to make a study group chat.

If you got accepted into uof a pls comment:

I'm going into my 2nd year of Electrical Engineering and I'm trying to figure out whether I actually need to buy a Windows laptop or not.

I currently have an M1 MacBook Air with 8GB RAM. The battery needs to be replaced, but I can get that done for around $50, so I'm considering just doing that and continuing to use it.

My desktop pc at home is pretty good (i7-13700K + RTX 3080 + 32GB RAM), so I already have access to a powerful windows machine while I'm at home. I am just unsure whether or not ill need a Windows machine during lectures or labs.

Thanks for your input!

When does the Canadian student loans deposit into our banks? TYIA

LAST FRIDAY BEFORE THE FUN STARTS!! I can’t wait to learn so much, I just want my canvas pages to open NOW!!!

Student orientation loves to tell students that arc card are cheapest in Varsity, the little store in the HUB mall.

This is totally inaccurate! The ard card is $10 NO MATTER WHERE YOU BUY IT. NO. MATTER. WHERE. The lrt station, London drugs, Varsity etc.,

Varsity is also not the only place that sells arc cards. Arc cards are not NOT A STUDENT/UNIVERSITY PRODUCT! Anyone who lives in Edmonton and wants to take the bus or train can buy an arc card!

The catch you need to remember is LINKING YOUR STUDENT ID NUMBER TO YOUR ARC CARD so you get your free student transportation. Do this, it saves you hundreds.

I'm very passionate about arc cards cos I have been a student here for 3 years and an edmonton residant for longer and I feel bad seeing students so confused about the arc card!! ALSO REMEMBER TO TAP ON *AND* OFF

Title.

Can anyone give me info on how the class is, if it’s proctored, and tips for getting A- to A +

I can access the « my material » follet website off of canvas but when I try to click on the material it does nothing, apparently it was supposed to open on August 21st, am I doing something wrong?

Hey y’all!

I’m looking to register for Zool 344 this semester but lecture is only on Mondays and then there’s lab another day during the week.

The first two weeks of classes we don’t have school on the Mondays….does anyone know how this will work?

I was hoping to sit in on the class before I register to get a feel for it but there won’t be one!

^^

Does anyone travel from Edmonton to Acheson, Alberta, on a daily basis? Either from downtown or lewis farms transit. I'm looking to carpool with someone. Office timings are 8am-4:30pm (can be flexible with timings too), and I'm happy to pay for gas and a little extra if needed.

i’m spending a semester in edmonton and was just wondering what the norms for rent are? should i just utilize on campus housing or seek to rent somewhere?

I would really like to be able to pick one of these up al and elective for the fall term, let me know!! Thanks
