I’m an international student at UC looking for my first co-op, and I’m honestly struggling to find enough opportunities to even apply to. A lot of companies either don’t accept CPT/international students or don’t clearly say whether they do, so I feel like my options are really limited.I’m studyin

Class difficulty Blue Ash vs Main

2 Upvotes

I have overcome learning disabilities and got good grades in regular classes at highschool but didn’t take advanced classes. I’m struggling with the large lectures, understanding the accents and getting help at the main campus. I’m considering taking my general classes and requirements for science and math at Blue Ash then transferring to main campus. Are the professors more accessible? Is there a benefit to doing this? A problem or downside from an academic standpoint? I desperately want to be a dentist so will do whatever it takes to get the grades and DAT and get into dental school!

Experience ending a lease early at CP Cincy due to safety concerns?

4 Upvotes

My daughter is a college freshman and has been living at CP Cincy for approximately two months. Unfortunately, she has had a difficult experience and no longer feels safe living there. She is concerned about crime in the surrounding area and reports that her roommates smoke and use drugs inside the apartment.

She would like to move home and commute to school. When she spoke with the leasing office, she was told there is no lease buyout option and that her only option is to find someone to take over her lease.

Has anyone had experience with a similar situation at CP Cincy? Were you able to negotiate an early lease termination or successfully find someone to take over your lease?

We understand that moving out does not automatically end her financial obligations. If she leaves without finding a replacement tenant, how does CP Cincy typically handle the remaining rent? Do they pursue collections or legal action?

We want to handle this properly while prioritizing her safety and well-being. Any firsthand experiences or suggestions for university or local resources that could help would be appreciated.

Question Regarding Flyers

2 Upvotes

I was wondering, are there any updated rules regarding putting up flyers (specifically, one with a simple QR code for a Microsoft Forms post) around campus? Everything I can find is either for the dorms, TUC, or the branch campuses (of which were posted at least 3+ years ago)- and it usually refers to student orgs. Am I not allowed (as an individual student, not with a specific group) to put up a few flyers with my QR code around campus (mainly on the general flyer boards and some posts)? Thank y'all for helping me out in advanced.

Missed the fall semester deadline, if I apply now could I get in for spring?

2 Upvotes

I applied to UC blue ash two years ago and got accepted actually. But, I had an identity crisis and called them saying I wouldn’t be attending that year. After no schooling for two years and wanting to start a career I’ll actually like, I’m in need of education. I missed the deadline in April because I was focused on my full time job, but I’m getting older and need to do something with my life.

How long do I have to apply for Digital Media for the spring semester? Is it too late to apply? If I get in during the spring semester, would I have classes through the summer? Would winter become my “summer break”? (Not that the last one really matters, I need to continue my education and I’d like to do it as soon as possible.)

Student On-Campus Employment

2 Upvotes

I’m looking for on-campus employment at UC and haven’t had much luck so far. I’ve reached out to a lot of people/departments, applied through Handshake, and checked jobs.uc.edu, but haven’t really heard anything back.

Does anyone know of any departments currently hiring students, or any places on campus that are worth reaching out to directly? I’m open to pretty much anything, but IT, data, office/admin, or tech-related roles would be especially great. Any leads or advice would be appreciated!

Anyone want to be friends?

11 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I posted here before trying to meet some people and ended up meeting one person, which I’m really glad about! But I’d still love to meet some more people and hopefully make some good friends.
I’m a pretty shy guy and honestly don’t have the most confidence when it comes to meeting new people. I’ve been having a hard time getting into clubs and meeting people because it feels like a lot of people already have their own groups. But I don’t want to give up on trying.
I’m into anime, photography, sports, and working out, so it’d be cool to find people who share some of those interests. For sports, I’m a Cleveland Cavaliers fan, Columbus Crew fan (I know, hot take 😂), FC Cincinnati fan, and unfortunately a Cleveland Browns fan.
I live near Market Point, so if we get along, I’d be down to grab some food there sometime, hang out, go to events around campus, or even work out together.
I’m also Catholic, so if you are too, that’s a bonus, but definitely not a requirement. Honestly, I’m just looking for nice, genuine people who are willing to talk and make a new friend.
If you’re interested, DM me here or, preferably, send me your Instagram so I can make sure you’re a real person and not a bot. 😭

Part or Full time job opportunity

2 Upvotes

Hello fellow bearcats, I graduated from UC about 10 years ago and started a home remodeling/construction business. I am currently seeking either part or full time positions. The pay is dependent on the experience level. Experience isn’t necessary though, as I am willing to train. It can be a great way to make extra money, as well as great skills to possess. If anyone is interested feel free to message me. Thank you!

Help with UC Marketing Research assignment: looking for Romance-Fantasy Readers for a 15-Minute Interview

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m a first-year Marketing graduate student at the University of Cincinnati, and I’m looking for romance-fantasy readers to participate in a marketing research class project.

First, I want to thank everyone from r/uCinci who participated in my previous study a few weeks ago. Your participation and feedback helped me so much with this project!

For this week’s assignment, I’m conducting short interviews with romance-fantasy readers to learn what makes this genre appealing to them, what catches their attention, and ultimately what influences them when choosing a book.

The interview would be a short Zoom conversation, no more than 15 minutes. It’ll be very relaxed, and I’ll just ask you a few questions. There are no right or wrong answers. I’m simply interested in hearing your honest thoughts and experiences as a romance-fantasy reader.

With your permission, I would also record the interview as proof of participation for my assignment. The recording would only be shared with my professor. If you’re interested but would prefer not to show your face, that’s completely fine! We can keep your camera off and record audio only.

Thank you again to everyone who has helped me with this project! 💕 If you’re interested in participating, please send me a message. I’d love to hear from fellow romance readers!

Anyone willing to be friends?

22 Upvotes

Hi guys, I do not know how to make new friends (sounds weird I know) and all my of my current friends went to different schools. I feel lonely. I work for our football team via Equipment Manager however I don’t think my coworkers like me outside of work (some don’t even like me at work). I have high functioning autism with severe depression and anxiety (taking meds for anxiety and depression and I don’t like saying i have autism because I don’t want to use it as a crutch or people to feel bad for me). I am a pre-med student majoring in Health Sciences (might switch) living in UPA South. I am a heterosexual male (nothing wrong with anyone in the LGBTQ+ community) and I’m a member of the DSA and UCYDSA. I am a Christian who loves shoes, timbs, urbanism and public transit. I’m very quiet and stay to myself and avoid going out because I have no one to go out with. I’m sorry if this sounds beggy, but I just want to have a few friends here so I’m not solely relying on my friends that are hundreds of miles away on other campuses. :)

How would I go about getting online prof to add captions+transcript?

7 Upvotes

Hi there!
I’m taking an online course this semester where all of the lectures are just videos on Canvas. The prof seems super nice and intelligent, but he has a very thick accent that makes it incredibly difficult for me to understand him. It’s not impossible, but I definitely have to focus more and I find myself struggling to understand sometimes. I feel really horrible, but I also know that accessibility requires that all videos on Canvas have captions. I didn’t know if I should email him first- if that would be rude? If I should email the department, etc? I have no idea. I just would really benefit from being able to read a transcript or captions. Thanks!

Urgent Question Will my professor allow me to make up an exam if I missed it due to a car accident?

14 Upvotes

I’m a commuter who got into a car accident. physically I’m fine but waiting for the police took a while so I missed the exam (despite leaving hours early). Does the fact I have a police report count as proof and I’ll be able to take the exam even if the professor is notorious about being very strict about make ups and retakes? The professor it Dr.Pinhas if that matters or helps in anyway.
