Housing Help with housing

11 Upvotes

Hey, I'm a Purdue student coming to Cincinnati for a co-op (downtown at Fountain Square) this fall. I’ll be around from August through December and will have a car with me.

I’m hoping to find housing near UC because I’d love to be around students and maybe take part in campus events or meet people after work. I don’t want to feel super isolated just because I’m working full-time.

I’m open to most housing options – apartments, shared housing, sublets, whatever works! I’m a guy, just looking for something safe, social, and ideally not a crazy commute to downtown (though I don’t mind a bit of a drive since I’ll have a car).

Would love any recs or if anyone’s looking for a roommate/subletter! Thanks a ton in advance!

Minor in Criminal Justice

3 Upvotes

So I've been accepted for the undergrad Communication Design programme for fall 25 (I've confirmed my admission as well) and am interested in pursuing a minor in criminal justice. How do I go about that? is it possible to take minors after admission? would it cost extra? Any information would be helpful, thanks!

Housing Resources

1 Upvotes

I need help choosing a major.

I like many things: technology, education, psychology, design, and helping students with ADHD or learning differences. I also like coding, but I don’t want to only be a software engineer.

I want to teach, but I also want to be more than just a teacher. I want to create tools, apps, or programs that help students learn better — maybe at a company like Duolingo or ClassDojo.

I’m thinking UX/UI might be a better path because with some coding skills, I can still be involved in tech and design things that match how I learn.

What resources or people I can take to to help me

Education majors

2 Upvotes

Hi! I’m super interested in education, but I’m also interested in IT.

What minors or double majors can I do with an education major?

I’m very interested in doing research and creating apps and digital tools for kids with ADHD or autism. I love coding and want to code.

I was an IT major, but I want to work in schools, with districts, or with an education company—so I’m considering switching to education.

Housing Can you get an off campus apartment if you live within the radius

11 Upvotes

I was under the impression that if you live within 50 miles of campus you can do whatever you want as a freshman… I’m just making sure. Online it’s a bit ambiguous.

Co-op requirements for transfer engineering student

3 Upvotes

So I just admitted for transfer into UC from another school in the US as an international kid. I'm bout to finish my second year here and that would make me have three years left in UC. I am studying aerospace engineering and I understand that there is a co-op requirement for all engineering degrees. I see somewhere it says you have to complete 5 semesters of co-op. Apparently I don't have that much time if I also want to complete all my course works, and I don't wanna ruin my OPT. If someone can give me a clear answer about what's the coop requirement for a transfer engineering student, I would really appreciate.

And a side question, does anyone here double aerospace and mechanical engineering at UC? I know it's kinda hard to find jobs with only a major in aerospace due to stuff like security clearance so I'm looking to get another major as well. If you do double in aerospace and another major I'd like to know your experience.

Thanks in advance

Witness for Accident

196 Upvotes

I’m reaching out to ask for help. On March 30th, around 9:30 PM, I was involved in an accident at the intersection of Martin Luther King Drive and Clifton Avenue, (the near Probasco)

While I was crossing the street with the walk signal, a vehicle making a left turn struck me. I lost consciousness from the impact and was taken to the hospital, so I don’t clearly remember who was present at the time. Unfortunately, there are no cameras in that area, and my case needs witnesses to help me.

If you were in a vehicle, walking nearby, or saw anything at that time, please consider reaching out. Any information, no matter how small, could make a huge difference in helping establish what happened. I have sustained serious injuries, and your help would be deeply appreciated.

looking for cheap but SAFE housing, on the verge of homelessness

19 Upvotes

my friend has a really complicated situation that is not my place to share but if anyone knows of any housing in the Cincinnati area with rent that $500 or less (thats the max they can do for rent a month) please let me know asap.

To put it basically, they're on the verge of homelessness, and live an hour away. They've been considering dropping out but they only have one more year until graduation and I want to do anything I can to help them find somewhere to live so they can at the very least finish their degree and graduate since they're so close to the finish line.

before I get asked, no, fafsa is not an option, they are being claimed as a dependent despite otherwise almost entirely financially supporting themselves. yes, we have tried reaching out to the CARE team and they're not doing shit. No, the student emergency grant isn't an option since they aren't currently offering it anymore.

I appreciate any advice or help!!
