About to graduate, spill the beans.

Hello, I am an admitted student at both VT and Minnesota. I qualify for in state tuition at MN and these are my best two options but I’m not sure what to do. VT is 60k+ a year which Is a very steep price and UMN is 35k to 40k about that. My plan is to transfer out of UMN after one year but I’m wondering is this a good plan? Are there certain gen eds which have extremely hard curves or not so great prof? I want to know if this is a good idea or not, based on whether it’s easier to get a 4.0 here or elsewhere. I want to transfer into a school like GT or UMich. (engineering)

Hello! I recently got into a summer research program at U of MN, and it seems like Minneapolis is a big biking city. I love to bike, but I'm going to be flying in to Minnesota from the West Coast and won't be able to bring my own bike. Does anyone have any advice on borrowing or renting a bike for ~10 weeks over the summer? Or alternatively, would anyone who goes to U of MN and has a bike but won't be around for the summer be amenable to allowing their bike to be borrowed? Thank you so much!!

Hi im going to be taking biochemistry (BIOC 3021) this fall 2026 and I was wondering which professor is better, and is the grading strict, and is the online class with Robert Roon harder then the in-person section and are his exams online (open notes or not) since the class is online.

I planned to take ECON 1102 class next semester so can I ask is it easier if we take it online or not and also is the exam or quiz is online too ?

I’m an upcoming freshman this fall, I’m also currently a PSEO student at a local community college. There’s a possibility that I received an FN (I think that’s what it’s called) in one of my classes by mistake. I’ve already talked to my advisors about it but they said there’s a chance they’re gonna send my transcript with the FN. Would my offer be rescinded?

Hi! I’m looking for someone to take over my lease at The Hub, it's an apartment building right in the middle of campus.  It's a penthouse studio apartment with a view facing the city skyline. The apartment is right next to the green line, medical buildings, and a library. Building amenities include a 24/7 fitness center, 24/7 study spaces, pool tables, 3 pools (one facing the city), and coffee bar. Let me know if you're interested:) Happy to answer any questions.
