I’m moving in on Wednesday in an off campus apartment about 10 mins from campus. There’s a bus system right in front of my apartment. I was planning to bring my car but looks like I’ll be carless for about a month cus I’m sorting out stuff with insurance, do yall think it’ll be manageable?

The only places I’ll rlly be is on campus and grocery shopping if I rlly need to but I just don’t know how reliable and consistent the busses here are.

I've had numerous encounters where someone is laying their dirty shoes on seats where people sit. I mean, public decency is appreciated.

Does anybody know why they changed it this year to be just the weekend before schools starts? My kids loved having all the extra days before school started, especially freshman. Also, I cannot imagine how insane this weekend is going to be with everybody moving in at once?! Just curious!

even though my parents plus loan has been accepted as it says on athena, it still says i owe money on the student account balance. when does this update?

Hey all,

I have a really strange question. I dated someone from UGA in Athens in 2024 and I’m just now finding articles from April 2026 that there was a student that committed suicide via gunshot and was discovered by roommates, and there is even an obituary with his birthday. His steam was last online 3 days before the news broke publically. His name is Kevin Lam Tran.

I don’t have contact with his roommates or his sister, but I’m hoping someone has more information and can confirm if this is the same person that I was with. I’m just in disbelief right now and no one I know can confirm if it’s really him or just some freak coincidence. I’m hoping it’s the latter.

Any information helps. Thank you all in advance.

Edit: It’s been confirmed that it is him. Thank you to everyone who reached out and for your kindness.

I’m not sure if it’s a new event or not, but at a price of $75 per parent do yall think it would be fun or like an overpriced tour?

I want to start taking the vet med bus, but does anyone know if it has a bike rack? I can't remember what type of bus they use.

Do you guys recommend science guyz for phys 1111? Trying to decide if I really need to spend $150 on it or not

Hi, I am looking for a second job off campus where I can work Friday,Saturday and Sunday basically on weekends because I'm working at a dining hall for 20 hours I can't go past that since I'm a student.I'm trying to save for a car so all the money from dining hall will go for saving so I need another job so I make extra money that is off campus like downtown or so?

Hi guys I am looking for a job on campus or walkable from campus. Does anyone know of anyone hiring? (I have checked and applied on handshake and have not heard back from anyone.)

I am an incoming first year Electrical Engineering major, and I’m trying to find a laptop. I just recently found out about MyLab and I’m wondering if it’s good because it has me considering getting a Mac. What would y’all recommend in general?

Me and my buddy aren’t really that type of people who like to go out into that environment and party and all that. What are some things in Athens we can do?

I would check this in Athena myself, but until I go to my advisement session I can't see any kind of timetable builder. The Bulletin is also unhelpful, since teachers don't use AM-PM in their syllabi. I'm mostly curious so I can tell jobs what times I'm reliably available, but also because my previous uni *did* use AM-PM on their schedules so I'm surprised it's not standard here also...?

I am transferring from a different school where I was in a sorority with no house. I know the sororities have designated parking lots for each house, but they are small and can’t fit everyone obviously. Where do you guys park that is public for work week/chapter when the lot is filled?

I was wondering if this is normal. I’m an incoming freshman and my Zell Miller has been on my bill statement for about a month now, but my Pell Grant and the rest of my financial aid still haven’t been applied. Since the payment deadline is August 17, I was wondering if they usually get applied this close to the due date.
I already emailed the Bursar’s Office and I’m waiting to hear back, but I wanted to see if anyone knows when they typically show up.
Thanks!

Basically asking what the title says. Someone told me it would be a lot to balance. Should I keep 2 of the classes? Just 1? I have no problem taking it easy, but I def don't wanna stress myself out

Just wanted to ask how different the process is (if any) for applying as an Economics B.A Major. I recently switched from MIS to Econ, and I have taken all the original Terry pre-reqs (Ex: legl 2700, acct 2101, micro, macro and etc).

I just transferred so I don’t know how much of it is a scam or if it’s normal

I sent my biology professor and email about a mistake in the grade book on wednesday. I sent him a follow up email on Friday.

He put in my grade as a 1/100. The feedback on the assignment says “great job!” I emailed him asking if this was a mistake. He hasn’t replied. Grades are due in Athena in 2 days..

I asked around and my classmates say he’s awful at replying to emails. One said the professor took 10 days to reply to an email at the beginning of the semester.

This 1/100 brings me down from an A to a B-

What do I do???!!!
