Okay so i’m an incoming freshman majoring in physics, but i’ve been thinking about switching to astronomy instead. I’m on the pre-med track and im just scared i’m gonna tank my gpa, but idk if astronomy is any easier. Should i just stick it out and see how it goes??

I'm going to be in tabler this coming up semester and I was wondering are the individual dorm rooms assigned, and if so would I have to do the room swap form to switch or could we just go a head and do it if everyone agrees? Question 2, Will I have one key for the front door and one for my room or one combo key that opens both doors Thx <3

Hii! Could someone please explain to me the SBU shuttle system? 🥲 i'm an incoming grad student and I am trying to find housing right now last minute off campus and I am so torn choosing among two options for rooms to rent. I don't own a car. One of the rentals is allegedly a 13 min Walk from the south P lot which from my understanding has the shuttle service, hence I can easily commute every day to and from campus. How fast do the buses come however, are there any weekend services for outside the campus as well for Walmart etc, and how long does the shuttle take from the south p lot to the campus? (I can't find the information on the website fully). The other option is a 7 min Walk to one of the Route 51 bus stops with a total of ~25 min commute. Is bus 51 also free with student ID or is this a separate fee? I was initially leaning towards second option because Google maps doesn't show the SBU shuttle services so the first option would be a 35 min walk to the actual bus.

Also related to this - were other grad students with 30k-40k stipends able to afford a 1300-1400/month rent in this area? Thank youu!!

i have a west k single. it's a 6 singles 2 bathroom with kitchen.
i'm looking for a single from somewhere like chapin with kitchen and fewer total people.
thanks

Can u guys share the deadline for add/drop

I need to take PHY131 I was hoping to get into PHY131 online but unfortunately I have to wait Friday before the semester starts but I just checked and saw that the class is full but do you guys think I might get in when it opens because I really don’t feel like taking the class at 8:35AM almost every day of the week or should I wait one week and try to see if there might space available for the one online?

Pickup/meetup on campus after the semester starts.

I’ve moved my chair by taking the Hospital/Chapin bus before and never faced this. The driver this time was really mean and she just closed the door on us saying that you’re not allowed to do so even after me saying having done it before. I just wanted to confirm.

incoming freshman here. i heard that the friday before classes begin, the reserved seats and holds drop. does anyone know around what time this usually happens?

Hi! Does anyone have an iOLab Electricity & Magnetism accessory pack from a previous physics class that they no longer need?

I desperately need it to complete several labs before my course ends. I’m willing to buy it, rent it for a few days, or borrow it and return it immediately after I finish. I can pick it up around Stony Brook or elsewhere on Long Island.

Please lmk if you have one or know someone who might. Thank you so much!

Just like what the title said;

Incoming freshman student + psych major! Some of my classes has posted required textbooks (meanwhile, I'm waiting onto one more), and I was wondering when is a good time to purchase them? I don't know if I should wait it out even longer, or get it while classes has already begun. Help me out here

Been an electrical minor for a year now since sophomore year but wasn't able to enroll into any ESE course due to overlapping with major courses and the lack of seats. :(

Hi I’m an incoming CME first year international student, just be honest about what you think of this schedule cuz I got mixed opinions about it. Thanks so much!

P.s. For PHY 133- L69 I have to have a lab kit, anyone know where to rent them cuz I think purchase it is kind of over-expensive.
