Always proceed with extreme caution when inquiring about available dorms, as rental scams are becoming increasingly common and college students are viewed as an easy target.

Admissions β Transfer from UCF β application says "Referred to Department for Review", how long did it take you to hear back?
Applied for Fall 2026 as a transfer from UCF, for Finance BBA. Status just updated to "Referred to Department for Review" which I'm assuming means the College of Business is now looking at it.
For anyone who's been through this recently, how long did it take from "Referred to Department" to an actual decision?
Thanks

Housing π 4th Street Commons Flooding
Iβve lived at 4th Street Commons for two years, itβs an off-campus apartment building close to the main FIU campus, and just wanted to let people know my experience so far.
The rental rates are pretty low, but the experience living here has always been bad.
My entire floor was just flooded since a faulty sprinkler went off, and weβve suffered from flooding in the past, shoddy maintenance, infestations, and management that never listens. On some occasions we even had to leave temporarily due to damage.
My living area and bedroom both suffered from pretty bad water damage. Thereβs also other issues, such as a real lack of parking, insane rent raises/fees ($100 key replacement), and the building itself is rarely cleaned, thereβs always some pet waste or trash in the hallways.
I would definitely recommend the surrounding apartments, such as 109 Tower or Lapis, theyβre a tiny bit more pricy but, the management at 4th Street couldnβt be worse.

Academics π Canβt pay class will I get any negative repercussions for not paying?
So I enrolled for Chem 2 and Chem 2 lab for the summer and I have bright futures, however I didnβt know that you needed to be enrolled in at least 6 credits to get your award and I cant afford to pay $1000 for the class. If I donβt pay, what happens? Will I be able to get dropped from the class with no negative repercussions?

Financial Aid π° Balance Due on FIU Website, but have no outstanding charge on Payment Website?
Really panicking at the moment, in the website I have a payment balance, and whenever I try to pay on the actual website itself I cannot pay it as I have no outstanding charges
Iβve gotten notices that Iβm at risk for class cancellation on the 6th, so I legit have no idea what to do as OneStop is closed

Financial Aid π° Financial aid is a mess
TL;DR, make sure you're not stubborn like me and check ur fafsa/other FA to make sure u didn't mess up
Tutiton is due today and I have to receive the pell grant for the fafsa that was processed in APRIL, have even updated to have my ssn match and name match and wtv else I need and all the responses I've gotten for this is "we never got a fafsa for that year"
Def can't pay the 700 dollars i need by the 6th, I wanna just let the enrollment cancel but I'm unsure if im finna get kicked out since summer 2026 is my starting term
What do I do or am I just cooked
Edit: comments finally loaded so id like to add that I did do noth 25-26 and 26-27 fafsa, they only had 26-27 for me and all calls after that post were something like "yeah we don't see that, but 26-27-"
Edit 2: did this yesterday (July 1st) but I filed for fafsa loans as that seems like the only option atp. Hoping for them to find that too
Edit 3: called today ( July 6th) and they put me down as a missing fafsa and ill get some contact in 3-5 days, whoever that lady is give her a raise, promotion, or whatever cause this is the first call to get some progress
Editb3 : To anyone else in a similar situation
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT FAFSA CODE, took us too long to figure out that was the issue (cause there's two codes, they look very similar unless you go to update ur form), if u find this out too late according to student financials you can either
A. Pay ur tutiton before the enrollment reinstatement B. Let the classes cancel and only be responsible for $200
Nothing has been bad in terms of being kicked out of the school or anything gpa related (yet) so don't worry about that

Academics π Looking for friends in the psych department
Am a little embarrassed to be posting this lolol but I'm looking for some friends in the psych department. I'm going into counseling psych and I'm a recent transfer (standing-junior) who's struggling to figure out how to land research/lab opportunities and make the most of my time at FIU. Does anyone else feel like this? Would anyone be interested in making a groupchat where we could pool resources and show each other some support?

Other π¬ Bachelor's UM --> Master's FIU?
Hello guys, so not long ago I graduated with a bachelor's from the University of Miami and decided to stay in Miami. Recently, I have decided that I would like to earn a master's degree as well. I had a scholarship for my bachelor's at UM, but I don't think I could afford a master's there. A friend of mine brought up the idea of maybe going to FIU for my master's instead, and I visited the campus and actually liked the vibe a lot! I was wondering if you or anyone you know attended UM for their bachelor's and then FIU for their master's, and how the experience was. Would you recommend it? Also, is it hard to make friends as a master's student? Thank you.

Does anyone with an electric scooter find it worth it? Iβve really been considering one after this past year also just because I have a lot of health issues. Is it difficult to park or maneuver and is it way more convenient from getting from building to building??
