It seems that waterloo has guaranteed housing for first two term but the cost is around $1100, do you think it would be worth staying on campus or can we live off campus when the budget is constraint?
Also, what average rent is there at Waterloo and how to find rooms?

Got an invite for a job I gen forgot I even applied too, are the coffee chats what leads to an interview?

I am thinking of putting a carport next to my house (2 metal posts and a roof). I have seen some options in Home Depot (10*16ft) and it doesn't attach to the house. Though, it would be sitting close to it.

I am wondering what zoning requirements are for such things. I have learned about 3ft setback for a shed and I definitely won't have 3ft until my neighbors property.

I am hoping to put a carport beside the house over my driveway and I am trying to learn about all the regulations I need to follow

Is there anywhere I can go to pet some animals (for free)?

I know a lot of places don’t let that because it stresses the animals out but im honestly just sad and need to pet some cats or something, does anyone have anything?

genuinely, are there any good producers in waterloo. i need someone who knows their shit and is serious. we can make it together trust me on this

Anyone has advice on what kind of questions they test for the final? Assignments are mostly programming but they said questions wont be coding at all. My profs Dr Pascal for reference. Thanks in advance.

I need my account for something TMU needs but it’s been like this ALL day.

Hi guys, just back here to share that I shared 11 submissions that were submitted to me! (Context here) I'm on the radio again next Monday at 7-8 pm to share the 3 I didn't get to. If you're curious to hear what you submitted you can find a playlist with the shows I've done so far.

Please support student radio shows it's so so fun :D

I just wanted to post on here and say I have an extra ticket to the evening time slot this Sunday from 5-8pm. The event is sold out so I'm happy to sell my extra ticket to any foodie that wants to go, pm me and can figure out the details! explorewaterloo.ca/event/2026-bite-by-bite/

That's it, that's the post. I am obsessed with these cute little birds and they're supposed to be migrating through Southern Ontario right now (early April!) They have such a cute little "peent" call (used by males for courtship) and they wobble around while they walk; seeing one during exam season would bring me so much joy.

I've been inspired by the recent viral sightings of these little guys at Bryant Park in NYC and I want to see if we can find them in Waterloo :)

How are you guys studying for the exam? I am half way through bro codes java data structures video right now but not sure what to do after that

any tips for the final, I haven't been to most of the classes. are the questions going to be off the slideshows or also like readings and videos

I've noticed quite a few students here take Spanish as an elective, and I know how tricky those conjugations can be at first. I'm a native speaker living here in Waterloo and just wanted to offer a hand.

If you have a quick question about a phrase, grammar, or an assignment you're stuck on, feel free to drop it in the comments and I’ll help you out for free. ¡Mucho éxito con el semestre!

I submitted quite a long absence request to the portal. However it advised me to email my academic advisor. As a first year engineering student should I email the [firstyear.engineering@uwaterloo.ca](mailto:firstyear.engineering@uwaterloo.ca) email, one of the general first year engineering academic advisors or my program specific advisor? I emailed my program specific advisor already but I figured I should be sure I got the right person

Exam's in seven days. I am kinda worried about the difficulty after reading past exam posts. Does anyone have previous final exam papers? I am asking because MA102 midterm was easy but the final was kinda of hard. MA103 midterm was manageable but I have no clue about the finals.

Hi guys, I have recently moved here and wanted to get a ladies hair cut.

I went to chatters but it was $80 for a trim which is out of my budget.

I am looking to go chin length and I would ideally like someone who can do short hair cuts.

Thanks!

Does anyone who has taken this course in past know what I should focus on. I'm redoing the questions from the textbook but idk if thats the right way to approach it, or how is everyone else studying for the exam?

So, if the province is going to appoint our next Regional Chair, do we have any guesses on who that might be? Of course, it could be someone who is not currently elected, but any thoughts on sitting politicians that might be on the top of Ford's list?

Upper year here thinking of checking it out for the community feel.

is there much of a diff in the experience coming into renison in the Fall term VS Winter terms?

as a shy person, are there much chances to meet people in Renison outside your Floor? or will you have to go out of your way to really do that?

And are most of the new residents first years? Are most events targeted to first years? As an Upper Year I’m not really that interested in the Frosh life, and I’m hoping to meet other upper years instead of just First Years.

i currently don’t know anyone in renison, and i’ll be going there alone if I decide to go.

tysm!

Since we’re all anonymous I want to know the craziest confessions you have that happened in Laurier

Hi everyone, does anyone have the filled out version of the slide that expands on "What happened (to the ESG movement's development and evolution) on a high level?" and the "Why has this happened?" slide after that?

I would greatly appreciate a little help from anyone, was very sick in that week of class and was unable to attend. Thanks!

I’m in MA129 and I’m a bit confused about the final exam. In the syllabus, under the lessons section, some topics are marked as “included in the midterm,” some say “included in midterm and final,” and others say “included in final.”

Does that mean the final is NOT fully cumulative? Or should I still expect everything from the course to potentially be tested?

I’m planning on retaking the class, how is it with Eve Lamargot?

Someone who took the final last year can you pls explain how it goes and was it easier then the midterm. Specifically ESG.

Between these courses, which ones were the easiest vs the hardest? I want to take one in this spring.

• BU466
• BU467
• BU477
• BU486
• BU487
• BU497

Please let me know who you took it with and how you found the course! Thank you!

every place is so packed and crowded and theres always a group of people being obnoxiously loud that i cant really study anywhere other than DP or some obscure, dark corner of a building

also theres not rly that many super open spots where u can the outside/get sunlight that isnt occupied. like i feel like theres so much missed opportunity to put study spots near windows on this campus. other schools have super open areas with lots of seats facing the window but here it's like.. a few large tables at QNC that seat like 2 ppl and are always full.. or like tiny ass slot windows in DP that feel suffocating (no hate cause theres a time and place for DP locking in).

i feel like the DC building (not the library) has so many windows where you could add like a little ledge table and some chairs but no all the stool chairs are just fixed in random locations. like NOBODY wants to sit in the middle of a random walkway🥀

do you guys think the exam is actually going to be way different from previous year or is he just bluffing? cause he said "The pool of exam questions is being expanded to increase the variation from one exam to another. So don't be surprised if your exam has substantial differences with the 2 posted practice exams. "

If I don’t get a 72% on the final I’m kicked out of bba. Should I be stressed or is a 72 doable?

I recently went to the ER and now they are charging me an ambulance fee - even though I did not use the ambulance. I got myself to the hospital. How do I prove I did not use an ambulance.

hi guys just a grad student looking for some spots to lock in for exams. i prefer bathing in direct sunlight like a cat when studying. would really appreciate if anyone has any suggestions especially since i have a raging cold i feel like i can only focus with sunlight on me. thank you!!

For class of 2026 grads, are you guys planning on going back to your hometown, staying in Waterloo, or moving somewhere new? Would be interesting to hear where y'all are splitting off to and what's dricing your choice whether it be for career, rent, family, city preferences, or smth else.

i do know a lot of ppl in cs, eng, and math like going to the states. but i'd be interested to see what other location preferences are common.

Anyone have ec120 with her? How should I study for the exam, any tips or if anyone can share why they’re using to study would be appreciated

Hi all,

I'm a university student looking for a unit with one-bedroom apartment that is quiet and furnished. Because I'm in the co-op stream that occurs every other term, I'd rather have a furnished apartment so I'm not hauling around furniture every four months.

I've already checked The Hub, WRCI Fenwick and 203 Albert. Lived at The Hub, which isn't horrible, but can hear my neighbours talking at relatively normal level without background noise (something I'm pretty sensitive about).

I want a quiet place, somewhere which I don't have to worry about hearing my neighbour talking or watching something while trying to go to sleep. It's also been hard because majority of places are multiple bedroom units or not furnished.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Edit: for this fall

i feel like both libraries have their own population demographic. Like the people u will see in DC r wayyy different than the people u will see in DP. Different fashion, different haircuts, just different.

anyone in bba know if the summer 3rd year courses' exams for sequence 2 co op students have a tendency of running till the very last day? (kinda like how accounting is known to be one of the later dates in second year)

anyone have notes for an100-D with Iga Mergler?

I've noticed a lot more desks being left with people's stuff on them in DC but the people are away from their desk doing who knows what for long periods of time. I would say in the last few weeks I've noticed ~20% of desks having this problem.

Honestly if someone just leaves a few things I'll just move it, like if they just leave a glove and a textbook or even a scarf, I'm planting my flag and claiming that desk.

How many items is too many to take a desk from someone if they are not sitting at it? If they got a whole setup, food half eaten, laptop out, zyns etc. but no Jimmy, are you taking the desk?

Hi all,

I'm interested in pursuing graduate studies at WLU. With my current trajectory, my gpa might be around 3.7-3.8, or around an A- or A. Is this a competitive gpa? I'm specifically applying to the Applied Politics (MAP).

Also, how much weight does WLU put on previous research experience?
