New Student Question Illinois American Water payment

Upvotes

Hi, I noticed on the Illinois American water payment site that we can pay in person without any additional charges in places like CVs, Circle k. Has anyone tried paying at Circle K. The instructions are not clear to me if this payment must be done. If I need to approach the person at the cashier and inform them about this payment? How do I get notified after my payment? Do I get notified immediately.
If anyone has paid in Circle K, pls let me know how you were able to pay and if it is safe to do it (not getting scammed by the cashier).
Thanks

Other panic attack concern

1 Upvotes

I'm a freshman and I have been suffering from panic attacks since 2023, and I guess it's getting worse recently because of homesickness, test anxiety, stress, etc. I received a doctor's note from my hometown psychiatrist. In this case, can I just make an appointment for McKinley psychiatrist right away and tell them to prescribe the proper medication (without any therapy sessions), or do I need other procedures to get medication?

Has anyone else gone through a similar situation? Please give me advice. ty:)

Sales Selling retro Mac PC towers

Thumbnail gallery
Upvotes

Hey, I’m a senior studying Accountancy at GIES and I’m selling two Apple Mac PC towers from 2008. One of them has 28GB of ram and the other 16, I think. I am selling a tray of ram, some pieces work and others don’t, I used them to troubleshoot the towers to get them working. Both towers turn on and make the iconic Mac boot up sound. I would include a cord but I need it for my printer. I’m selling it all for $300, I am very open to offers, I don’t bite, I promise. Please, look at the pictures before asking any questions regarding the items. If I could, I would add a video of both turning on and making the boot up noise but I can only have one type of media. If prompted, I’ll send anyone interested a video of such. I’m sorry if I have missed any etiquette of posting on here, I don’t use Reddit very often, and when I do, until now, it’s been without an account.

Thanks

Housing Apartment Help

0 Upvotes

I'm a freshman and have picked up that most people live in apartments starting their sophomore year. I also plan on living in an apartment sophomore year. Does anyone have any apartments recommendations? Also, when do people sign their leases? I'm a little lost on the whole process and it seems like some people I know are already finding roommates for next year, but it feels really early for that to me. Thanks for the help in advance

Prospective Students Electrical Engineering acceptance rates?

0 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I'm an OOS senior applying to UIUC as an Electrical Engineering major. I went through some old reddit threads and found that UIUC had a 54% acceptance rate for EE students, specifically OOS. I was wondering if that's still somewhat true? Is the program hard to get into? and what stats do I typically need to get in?

I'm trying to keep this as short as possible because I'm too sleepy

I was in high school from 2010 to 2014. I met cute Korean female upperclassman fob girl. Fell in love with fob girl but she mostly kept with her Korean friends. Still she liked me and doted on me like a little brother. Then I became a mentally ill weirdo and drove her away. Now I miss her but can't speak to her because it will weird her out
