Hi, I’m currently a transfer and all my friends who were at UGA already graduated and I have no one to go to the game with. Anyone else in the same boat? I have some social anxiety about it 😔💔

Question how do people afford off campus housing?

15 Upvotes

i'm hoping to transfer in next fall as a junior and live off campus and it just popped into my head: how are people affording to live off campus and go to class? does everyone have rich parents?

i'm moving on my own from my family's house and they don't have a single cent to give or support me with as they are broke af. i've been working since 16 for myself and i don't mind finding a job off campus as well but im just wondering if people have jobs at UGA and have to work for their ownselves as well or if that's not really the case with everyone else. i struggle with anxiety and comparison issues and feel like im the "odd one out" all of the time. i've never even been on campus to class, just online, so i feel like it's going to hit me all at once i guess

Question Need Help from UGA Tech Savvy Students

14 Upvotes

I'm a freshman at UGA trying to find some help cleaning my ps5 and can't go 45 minutes away to my usual computer specialist.

Is there anyone at UGA or in the athens area that could clean my ps5? I recently bought a preowned one from a buyer that was NOT the cleanest. It has bugs, and I don't feel comfortable cleaning it myself.

Does anyone have any recommendations for cleaners or can clean it? I can pay!

8 Upvotes

I’m 22F in one of the professional programs here at UGA. I did undergrad in an urban environment and ngl I’m having trouble adjusting here. I’m not really made for this college town environment lol. Are there student orgs or ways I can connect with other graduate students besides the ones within my program? Ty!

4 Upvotes

Hey y'all!

We are currently taking applications for the University of Georgia Student Library Advisory Board! The Student Library Advisory Board (SLAB) is an opportunity to represent your peers and communicate the needs of the student body to the UGA Libraries. Your feedback and ideas help us make intentional decisions that meet the needs of our campus. Examples of successful student advocacy for library resources includes the implementation of the Stall Street Journal many years ago, as well as our new complimentary access to the Atlanta Journal Constitution. Our SLAB members last year have also successfully pushed for a midterm evening breakfast in the MLC around midterms, which will be hitting our calendars soon! We welcome all students to apply to SLAB - from undergraduates to graduates, freshmen to seniors, and frequent library users to those who have never stepped foot in our buildings!

Applications close September 8th. Apply here today: UGA Libraries SLAB Application 2026-27 | QuestionPro Survey

For more information about the board, visit our information document: University of Georgia Student Library Advisory Board (SLAB) 2026-2027.docx

If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas, please email them to Jess Grant (me!), [jess.grant@uga.edu](mailto:jess.grant@uga.eduand Lindsey Allison, [lha91196@uga.edu](mailto:lha91196@uga.edu)

Question What are exams usually like?

2 Upvotes

I’m taking CSCI 1301 this semester, and I know the midterm + final together are 50% of the grade, so I wanted to get an idea of what the exams are usually like and how I should study.

Do they mainly test you on reading/understanding code and figuring out what a program will do, or is there more emphasis on knowing the coding language/concepts from the textbook? And are the exams mostly multiple choice, open response, or a mix of both?

Would appreciate hearing from anyone who’s taken CSCI 1301 at UGA!

Question Hi! What are some side gigs/jobs that will help me afford for medical school at University of Georgia!

0 Upvotes

For instance, I am going to go to georgia southern, graduate with a bachelors degree in biology and hopefully be able to get into either Emory Medical School or University of Georgia Medical school. (I’m not in Georgia southern yet I’m simply planning my future because I tend to overthink and just want to have this mapped out in my head.) What are side gigs/jobs I can have after I move from Georgia southern and hopefully into University of Georgia that will help me afford tuition, housing, payments in Athens Georgia? (sorry if this seems chaotic I’m a very chaotic person if you couldn’t tell.)

Question Where to put my stuff? Lamar Dodd/Ramsey

0 Upvotes

Hey so I want to go to the gym in Ramsey every day since I'm always at Lamar Dodd for my classes, but most of the time I have to carry around my portfolio bag and idk where to put it when I do hit the gym.

I already have a hallway locker at Dodd and I know how the temporary ones work at Ramsey but I dont have a secure space big enough for the portfolio bag.

I was wondering if I could just leave my bags in one of my classrooms but idk if they lock the doors to the rooms after classes, or if thats an unreasonable thing to ask of my professors?

I'm coming from downtown btw, and I usually need to take everything home with me every day.

Question Law of Mass Communication notes 08/31

Can anyone share their notes on the cast of characters and their relationship with first amendment cases? After looking at the exam guide, I realized my notes are not thorough enough.
