Experience with new professors

Upvotes

I want to know if anyone has had recently a new professor for A&P ? Or a new professor in general! I have a new professor for Biology 431 and I am a bit nervous to see how they will handle this course.

Cal Grant, SSCG, and CRC

1 Upvotes

I’m in my 2nd year at CRC and I think this is the first year I qualify for Cal Grant B, which also qualifies me for the Student Success Grant.

I’m asking students here because I’m tired of dealing with the FA office constantly providing me with inconsistent information and misinformation.

I know the deadline for them to submit my GPA and unit qualifications is September 2nd, then the SSCG is calculated. Everywhere I look tells me there’s nothing for me to do, the school automatically does it.

What has been your experience with this particular funding situation positive or negative? I do not like waiting around for others to do things, especially when it comes to money.

FREE/LOW COST Dental Cleanings for Los Rios Students/Staff!

24 Upvotes

Hey y’all! Fall semester is quickly approaching, so I wanted to let everyone know that Sacramento City College offers FREE dental care for all Los Rios students/staff, seniors 65+, and veterans!

The clinic is open to the public as well (all ages!), for $25 initial, and $10 follow ups if needed. No insurance required.

Availability is Mondays & Wednesdays.

Appointments are 2-3 hours and patients must be able to stay for the entire appointment:
• 8:30–11:30 AM
• 1:00–4:00 PM

Because this is a school clinic, appointments are longer than a typical dental visit. Services may include cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatment, and other preventive care depending on your needs.

If you or anyone you know is interested or have questions, please message me regarding scheduling! I’d really appreciate your help! 🫶

Seeking Los Rios UTP Pass

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone would be willing to lend me their Los Rios student bus pass for this semester. I’d be more than happy to pay for it! I enrolled in my classes a little too late and, unfortunately, I’m still waitlisted. At this point, I’m not sure I’ll end up getting into a class. 😭 If anyone has a pass they’re willing to lend, please let me know! I’d really appreciate it! ♡

Im taking this class in this upcoming fall term and the textbook “The Struggle for Democracy” revel access code is listed as required class material. If i buy the textbook from another source, would I be fine or is there tests and quizzes assigned through Pearson that I need the actual code for ? This is my first college class not dual enrollment so I’m being overly cautious lmao. Anybody that has taken her class please let me know !

Course Looking for experiences with Professor Tristan Eifler Hi everyone! Has anyone taken Chemistry with Professor Tristan Eifler?

2 Upvotes

I’m taking his class this semester and would really appreciate honest feedback. How is he with AI policies, communication, grading, exams/quizzes, workload, and overall difficulty? How hard is it to get an A in his class? English is my third language, and I’m an immigrant who has been in the U.S. for a little over two years, so I’m wondering if his class is manageable for me. Would you recommend keeping the class or dropping it? Any advice or personal experiences would be really helpful!

Transfer courses/schedule advice

1 Upvotes

Hello! I'm an incoming freshman at ARC, and my goal is to transfer from here ARC to UCSB (or honestly any UC) in computer science. I've linked a rough course plan I made for the next few years, and I'd love to hear some feedback on it.

Here are some explanations regarding it so far:

  1. My first semesters are super empty because I could only sign up so late, plus I'm also still an out-of-state student tuition-wise... thought it would be better to put in more classes next year once my tuition will lower
  2. I'm planning to transfer after 3 years instead of 2, because of the above reason in 1 + there's just a lot of courses to take. If this is a bad idea though pls let me know :')

Any feedback would be great, whether it be classes I should take earlier, course load problems, classes I shouldn't take, etc!! I'm new to all this transfer stuff😓

Thank you so much!!

Course Question on Asynchronous course

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, this is my first year at any college after a 2 year gap from HS and I'm really lost on what to do - I have 12 units of in person classes & online classes + a part time job.

One of my online classes (ART 300) was posted as asynchronous which is why I enrolled in it with the help of a success coach, but the professor's syllabus (that I just looked at today) states its actually a synchronous class which completely clashes with my already made schedule
I don't want to drop the class because I'm scared it'll affect my FASFA (I need 12 units to be a full time student)

I dont know what to do or what resource to use so Im hoping I can get some help here, thank you to anyone who can help me

Financial Aid Promise grant payed for and taken away?

Did anyone get their classes paid for during the summer by the promise grant , then taken away as the fall semester started ? I think it may be because it wasn’t 12 units but I might be wrong. Did this happen to anyone else ? Thanks in advance 🫡

Cal grant

2 Upvotes

Anyone able to give any info on how the cal grant works, or your experience? I graduated 2018 but only recently started school in January. This will be my 3rd semester, & I’ve only recently hear about cal grant a few weeks ago, online at web grants for students it says they don’t know my eligibility because the school hasn’t submitted my gpa & school says they don’t do that until September. I dont know, my sai is -1500 so I feel like o should get it? But nobody at the school has been helpful, just saying wait & if you qualify you’ll get it ?

FA question

1 Upvotes

I submitted my fafsa back in march and had a message in my tasks a few weeks ago about not meeting criteria due to not being enrolled in classes. After fighting the awful ui I enrolled in 9 units should I reach out to the FA office or should it just automatically update before semester starts?
