Worst experience you'll ever have at ASU. He has more of an obvious interest in failing you than you learning and being successful in his class.

I am one of the unlucky people who have had their tuition on hold for the past couple of months. Funny enough on October 26th (the day after it was due) my financial aid finally updated. It says applied to my account but at the same time also says that it hasn't been applied to my account yet or disbursed.

I also submitted a Student Budget Review in August, and haven't had any update. Could this be why it sill says that it hasn't been applied? I'm trying to hold off to see if they approve or deny it, but at some point will they start charging late fees for not paying? I've never had a situation like this, and of course I've had no luck with the financial aid department. I don't really have the money to pay tuition costs + late fee charges.

Hey everyone,
I applied for the ASU Mastercard Foundation Scholars Program back in September for the Innovation and Technology track (Computer Science). Given the usual timeline, interview invites should be rolling out around now (correct me if am wrong). Has anyone received an email for an interview, or even a rejection yet? Has anyone tried emailing them for an update, and did you get a response? Just trying to gauge where they are at with reviews. Also, if there are any past applicants or current scholars from last year's cohort here, do you remember exactly what week or date in October/November you received your interview email or status update? Thanks and good luck to everyone waiting!

I want an MRI of my brain. No hypochondria or medical anxiety. Just think it would be fun to have an MRI of my brain hahaha, and if I can help research studies/students at the same time, even better!

I recently owed ASU an outstanding student account balance and received an email stating that my debt would be transferred to a collection agency.

Yesterday, I called ASU's financial department to resolve the issue. I specifically asked about avoiding outside collections, and the representative reviewed my account and set up an in-house monthly payment plan for me. I was told I was good to go, and I have already made my first payment.

However, I subsequently received a call from the collection agency. The representative told me that I had to proceed through them and claimed that the ASU employees I spoke with had incorrect information.

I explained that an ASU representative had personally updated my account and arranged the payment plan. The collection agency said they would contact ASU to clarify the situation.

I'm trying to pay my debt responsibly, but I'm concerned that I may have been given incorrect information by ASU.

Has anyone dealt with a similar situation? Can ASU recall an account from collections after setting up an in-house payment plan? Should I contact ASU's Collections Office directly, and what should I do about my next payment while this is being sorted out?

I'd appreciate any advice from people who have dealt with ASU's Collections Office or a similar situation.

Hey I was wondering if anyone knew if student can use a classroom to play a video game for a bit if nobody else is using the room and/or the student uses the room after the classes for the day are over.

hey everyone!

i graduated from ASU with my undergrad in CS and i’m an international student. i’m planning to come back for my masters (fall 2027) and trying to figure out how to get some funding since tuition is a lot lol

for anyone who did their masters at ASU, especially in SCAI:

• how did you get your tuition waived (any amount)? RA, TA, grader, fellowships, something else?
• if you don’t mind sharing, how much got waived?
• how did you land the opportunity? did a prof reach out, did you cold email, volunteer in a lab first?
• any SCAI labs you know are well funded and actually hire masters students?
• thesis vs non thesis, did it make a difference for funding?
• when did you start getting funded? first semester or later?

any tips or experiences would honestly help a lot 🙏 my DMs are open too if you’d rather share privately

thanks in advance!

Hey yall this is one of my required courses and I was wondering if anyone’s taken this course before what did you think of it and who’d you take it with?
