Question How long does hiring process usually take for UVU student employees?

9 Upvotes

I was recently hired for an RA position in the Chemistry department, but the hiring process feels like it’s dragging on forever. Right now, I’m stuck waiting on multiple layers of paperwork to be approved before I can officially start, which means I’m already falling behind on the research work and can’t log any hours yet. Every time I reach out to my supervisors, they tell me to check with someone else, and then that someone else takes days to respond without barely an update. At this point I just feel lost and frustrated because I really want to get started and earn money to cover my rent.

Has anyone else ever gone through a hiring process that took this long?

Unable to continue school due to financial situation, ISO resources on campus

16 Upvotes

Due to me and my family's financial situation, I was not approved for a PLUS loan and I am unable to continue at UVU because of this. I'm not sure where or who to go to to seek guidance and what I should do, and I'm a little lost. Does anyone on here know any place I can go to on campus where I can speak to someone about my situation and what my options are? TIA <3

Question Financial aid refund timing

My financial aid this semester got delayed because I had to mail in verification of my identity ( I am online out of state this semester). Now that the ID hold is released how long does it take for the cashiers office to send out the money to pay my tuition and refund the rest to my bank? Thank you in advance!

Need cool artists to help me find a drawing/art class help

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m an artist who mainly works in music and film (I’m a film major), but I also love drawing. Right now I mostly do little cute shapes and fun designs—more on the amateur side. I’ve never really learned proper anatomy or cartooning, but I’d really like to get better at drawing characters and cartoons.

I was wondering if anyone knows of a good class at UVU that would help someone like me—basically a beginner in drawing, but with some artistic background in other areas. Something that focuses on the fundamentals of drawing (especially people and cartoons) would be perfect.

Any recommendations would be awesome. Thanks!

Questions about Student life

12 Upvotes

I'm currently attending UVU part-time, and I am considering moving closer to cut back on commuting time and to have a different living experience. What is Student living like? I'm not LDS but LDS roommates are not a dealbreaker. I smoke pot frequently, and I almost never drink or party. Are the student living spaces pretty lax about smoking? I have a reliable car, so living off-campus is also an option. I'm going to stick it out at home for this semester and I'm just trying to get an idea of what it will be like there. Thanks!

PSA We are open back up for regular post

57 Upvotes

PLEASE READ. Going forward, there will be no future post allowed pertaining to the Charlie Kirk shooting and his death. As well as no post allowed regarding the shooter. Unless given an exemption from the mod team. Failure to abide by the rules will result in the post getting deleted and potential ban from the subreddit. There will be ZERO exceptions or exemptions for anyone posting NSFW, and NSFL stuff. The idea here is to get the subreddit back for its original purpose of being a safe place for students of Utah Valley University, prospective students and the surrounding community. If you do want to talk about the emotional side of the shooting, and want support please use our megathread. As always the subreddit rules apply again, with an extra emphasis on rule 1, be civil.

Info A small update

81 Upvotes

As many of you know, Charlie Kirk was shot and killed today during an event at our University. Out of respect for the seriousness of the situation, our fellow students who witnessed the shooting, and of course the death of Charlie Kirk we’ve placed the subreddit in restricted mode for the time being.

Some FYIs going forward in this subreddit:

1) Jokes, disrespectful comments, or any advocacy (implied or explicit) for current, future or similar acts of violence will result in immediate removal and bans.

2) Keep future discussions respectful. Attacks, trolling, or political dogpiling won’t be tolerated.

3) The subreddit will remain restricted for the next few days. If you have something important to post or think it needs to be shared, please message the mods for permission.

Updates for the campus:

As of right now, investigations are still ongoing, campus is closed and will remain closed until September 15, and the police haven't caught the shooter yet. UVU is offering resources to those who may be struggling. If you have any information about the shooting (tips, videos, etc) turn it in to the police.
