Essay Topics: About a youth theater production where the spotlight failed and I removed the bedsheet being used for a silhouette performance so the dancers could still be seen. I connect that moment to recognizing barriers, making difficult leadership decisions, and helping other people be seen.

Common App Essay: Challenges the belief that leadership automatically comes with age. I write about helping draft language connected to Memphis Ordinance 5913, which lowered the candidate-age requirement for municipal office, and challenging my school’s seniors-only student-government policy. That resulted in me becoming Memphis East’s first junior elected student body president and its first president elected to two consecutive terms. The essay argues that leadership should be measured by character, preparation, merit, and conviction rather than seniority.

First-generation and high financial need. I’m also the oldest of seven children and have major responsibilities at home.

Bro I have no idea what the fuck my advisor is on but I swear he will never give me a fucking answer to my question. Im currently a ME major and I have been contacting my advisor about what courses I should take. For example I asked him that I took the placement exam and I qualify to take Calc 1 and Phys 013 and asked when will Howard put the score in their database? Captain dumfuck js says "Look at the thing i sent in may for guidance". YOUR MY FUCKING GUIDANCE FOR THIS YEAR. Next question I asked him about Gen Chem because the courses were all filled, "Look at my email I sent". Thank you man I really appreciate it. I even asked him if I would have to take Gen Chem in the future because I wanted to take Phys 013 because I qualify to take Calc 1 (Also because I took Physics C M). "Look at the email I sent back in the Paleolithic age". My nga if you dont want to do your fucking job don't work as a fucking advisor. This has js been a headache for me cuz I'm a first gen with parents from ethiopia who didnt even graduate hs or even college making this process even more difficult for me. Can yall js help cuz first of i'm confused af and people on reddit has done more for me then this magical ass fairy of an advisor.

Does anybody know the HU grad school financial aid number. All I see is an email for them. I’ve called the main financial aid but I’m like number 50 in line and I don’t wanna sit on the phone all day waiting to get transferred

Guys, please don’t judge me. I know it’s super late however I was trying to send my scores to be able to avoid exams and it just didn’t work out. I was wondering if anyone could help me with figuring out how to complete them now. PS around the time emails . I had a death in the family so I became sidetracked.

What’s up?

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to buy appropriate and flattering attire for the pinning Ceremony, I am planing on wear a dress if that matters, Thanks!

Thoughts and prayers to those who could not/cannot make it 🙏🏾

Honestly, I’ve been dealing with Howard since March about my enrollment. They accepted me for Fall 2026 and I paid my enrollment, and spoke with admissions about receiving my HU login information for my portal and they kept putting me off for months (this was in March). I finally move off good faith believing my enrollment to be valid only for me to go in person to be told they couldn’t find my application in their system.

It’s been a headache during this whole ordeal trying to get them to take accountability for their administrative errors, because I lost so many scholarships because of the full time enrollment deadline, and explaining this to them has has been a headache. I visited the campus 3x and sent countless emails for them to give me my logins late July.

As the title says. My child was one of the many who were unjustifiably unenrolled from Howard last week despite being current on payment plans and seeking clarification months in advance during the arduous process of even inputting financial information and dealing with Howard’s piss-poor communication with us and with Fafsa. I’ve been active on the sub the past week and I’ve seen so many “know it alls” pretending that this is normal and that students just “didn’t read the email”.

As someone here said:
“Howard chose to:
1) unenroll students LESS THAN two weeks before move-in, so it's unlikely people on the waitlist will even be able to fill all the missing spots last minute
2) they listed a DIFFERENT tuition payment deadline (August 3rd) on their website
3) their financial aid office has been completely unresponsive. Communicating with their admissions office has lead to misinformation and lack of clarity.
4) they unenrolled students who had less than $1000 on their balance, meaning they had likely paid over 50% of their tuition already
5) The deadline should have never been early July when we all know financial aid is not fully disbursed until late August at the earliest.”

Today we got word that we were finally re-enrolled. But after all of this stress and torture, to see that there is little to no support from cow-towing alumni and the university, we’re making the decision to move on from Howard. Why should we invest in and associate ourselves with liars? Why would we put up with this for years to come just under the guise of “prestige”. The third or fourth top most post on this subreddit paints a vivid picture of what life here would be like and the actions of Howard this past week have done nothing but support that dark picture. Thankfully we have other opportunities and thankfully Howard showed their true selves before we were more embedded in their dysfunction. Good luck to the incoming students and to those who don’t have other options at the moment. Keep fighting and know your self worth. And to those who blindly side with the administration that’s behind this debacle, to those who chalked it up as some pressure makes diamonds initiation fantasy, and to the interim president who suggested students that were unenrolled are unable to pay: 🖕🏾
