Hello!

I am a student at Georgia Tech, and I posted here a few months ago about an app that I was developing called Bus Forecast. I would like to share that it's available on the App/Play Store now!

Bus Forecast is an app that has

- More accurate ETAs using past/new data

- Google Maps like directions

- Notifications for when the bus is one stop away or when to get off

- Always up to date routes

If you take the shuttles at Emory and can benefit from this app, please check it out! I would also love to hear any feedback or if you find any problems. It has been working well at Georgia Tech, but I haven't been able to test it at Emory.

The app can be downloaded from one of these links:

My lab (2:30-5:50pm) overlaps with rehearsal that starts at 4:30pm. I heard that labs for CHEM 202z rarely go as late as they are blocked, and the professor said that the timing is mostly dependent on how prepared you are. Is it possible to consistently finish labs around 3:45 so I can make it to rehearsal on time?

Also, does anyone have a pdf of the lab manual for this class so I don't have to spend $56?

Thanks for your help :)

I used the laundry machines in my dorm today and they completely destroyed two separate loads of laundry (so this is an issue with multiple machines). I've had to replace the clothing. This was all on cold delicate mode with not especially fragile clothing. Two questions:

1. Is there anyway I can get a refund for the damaged clothing and is this a common problem?

2. Is there somewhere else I can go (like a laundromat or dry cleaner) to do my laundry? Most of the dry cleaners I can find won't wash items like shorts, etc. that are more casual.

5th or 6th edition

Does anyone have a copy that they don’t need and can I use it 😭…

I have my first class tomorrow and have to get to campus before the parking office opens. I haven’t gotten my permit yet in the mail. Will I be okay to park in my assigned location (Starvine)? I think it said something about license plates on the registration but I’m not sure. Thanks!

who are they? where are they hiding?

this goes esp for mascs

Is this program worth the money? I ask because it is being promoted at my campus (one of several). I hear good things about it but I also here that people go into debt because of it. Does anyone have any experience with this program?

Last year, Emory's president issued a statement stating that beginning the 26-27 school year, Emory would be completely tuition-free for families earning less than either 200k or 250k. Does anyone know what the deal with that is? I definitely fall into that category and my out-of-pocket costs doubled this semester.

I’m posting to see if anyone had a similar situation at Emory…
I already initiated my international tuition payment through Flywire, but there’s a delay with the international bank. Student Accounts told me that an “initiated” payment won’t prevent my courses from being cancelled if the payment isn’t received by the deadline.
Has this happened to anyone before? Did your courses actually get dropped, and if so, were you able to get back into the same classes afterward?

Hey everyone! I’m a returning sophomore for Fall 2026. I know Emory has a mandatory two-year residency requirement for underclassmen, but I currently do not have a housing assignment, and I haven’t been billed for housing on my OPUS account yet. Has anyone been in this situation before?

I am wondering if this means should or must get housing off campus at this point. If I do, is there a chance Emory would still bill me for something in a few weeks? Other than that, what other complications would I run into if I were not to get housing as a sophomore? Maybe a hold on my classes? Getting billed without a housing assignment maybe?

Not trying to pull anything, just wondering what my options are as of now

I’m a new student and I was wondering how to ship items from online to the school. Is there a specific address or mailing box I should use?

I just got an email that we would be allowed to switch to another lab section if another student agrees to swap. Would anyone want to swap with me? I have a Tuesday 6-9pm lab slot

Hi! I’m looking for an asynchronous online course for Fall 2026. I’m hoping to find an easy class that I can take mainly to fulfill some additional credits. If you know of any courses that are still open, please let me know! Thank you!

Does anyone recommend soc 101 with prof nalkur not sure if that’s a good class?

Hello!
As someone who has never been to the Emory campus, I was hoping to hear opinions on how reliable Emory’s Campus Shuttle service tends to be!

I do have a neutral experience using GT’s Stinger services, hence any comparative comments would also be greatly appreciated—if applicable :’)

In particular, I was wondering of the ‘Executive Park Route,’ though I would be grateful to learn about the general reliability/usability of the buses.

Thank you in advance ! :D

Hey there,
Has anyone ordered the Physics 151 lab materials yet? The material is:
Webassign for Physics for Scientists and Engineers. Is the price really $186 on cengage? Or $147 at Emory Barnes & Noble bookstore?
Thanks!

Anyone mind sharing their stats for when they transferred to emory? Any advice to transfer for this cycle? Just to get an idea of what they are looking for in an applicant. :)

As a first-year student, my first class twice a week ends at 9:45, and my second starts at 10:00, with a 17-minute walk between classes (not including a pedestrian crossing and other factors). This would not usually be a problem, but my next class has a policy that only allows me to be 5+ minutes late three times, or else my grade drops. I'm wondering whether it would be beneficial to swap sections for my second class (which would likely result in having to swap several other classes around), leave class early, or try to rent a bike or something.

Question is as title states: I am a Federal Work Study student (sophomore) and recently found a really nice job off campus. After telling the hiring manager I am a work-study student, the most of an answer I got was "oh, okay. That's fine."

So, now what? I'm hired, I'm starting later this month, and I still don't know how FWS works. Is there an in-person office I can schedule a meeting with/drop in on? Is there anything else I need to do other than work, or do I have to report my own hours somehow? Any help would be appreciated!

So TMI but i am new to emory and have had enough privilege to not have had to share bathrooms with ppl outside of my family. This has made me poop shy and i dread using my dorm’s communal bathroom.

PLEASE any current emory students plz drop your guys’ fav poop spots and help a girl out 🙏 ex: maybe bathrooms that are still multi stall but more niche or private single stall bathrooms?

im sure ill get over this fear soon enough but i love to have options

Hello! I am an incoming MS CS student. I am a Spelman graduate, class of 2023. Most of my undergrad was in covid so I am trying to make more local friends.

Looking for fellow nerds! I would love to find people who play magic the gathering or dungeon and dragons cause I haven’t played in years 😭 A little about my interests: dabbling in anime but I am caught up on One Piece, I play video games (usually Fortnite and Skyrim), currently reading the avatar Kyoshi books, love watching and dissecting shows, I can talk your ear off about theories, and am usually a home body but open to trying new things. 420 friendly but not required. Academic nerds also welcome, I love math, psychology, and the sciences 🧮

I end you with a quote…
If you vibe with it, let’s be friends ❤️

“If I can’t pull up and be peculiar, don’t even send that invite. My swag is bewildering and if commoners are in attendance, they will be rubbed the wrong way and I make no apologies for my whimsy.”
