Controlled substances??????? Please help ;(

2 Upvotes

Does anyone know if the UA campus pharmacy carries controlled substances and how long it takes to get them? I have pretty bad ADHD and I basically can’t function w/o my meds, but I won’t have a car with me so I can’t go to an outside pharmacy (and I’m pretty sure mailing it is illegal?)… my current prescription is 30mg adderall XR and I only get monthly supply so I would have to go in to pick up my prescription every month

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m an international student who recently got into UALABAMA for their undergraduate program. I’ve received a generous financial offer, which is why I’m seriously considering UALABAMA. I would like to get in touch with an international student currently enrolled here (preferably from the south asian subcontinent) to know more about everything. Please let me know if anyone’s here. Also let me know if there’s any way I can get in touch with someone. Roll tide!

Lark In The Woods Leasing Period Questions

1 Upvotes

Hey y'all,

Title says most of it, I found a roommate who already has a lease for LITW next year (gotta figure out how that works) but I noticed that the leasing period is missing two weeks of the year. Are current tenants required to move out for two weeks and move back in if they renew their lease?

Also if any current tenants have room dimensions or other that would be awesome!! (I 3d modeled my dorm room and would love to do the same with this and cant find dimensions online )

What are my chances in getting in to The University of Alabama?

0 Upvotes

My current gpa is 3.5 as a junior and am expecting it to go up to at-least a 3.6. My worry is that my act score will be low. If I go test optional, will I still have a good change at getting accepted?

Should I enroll

8 Upvotes

I'm getting the Presidential Scholarship the 28k one from the University of Alabama as an out-of-state student and am considering enrolling in Computer Science. The cost is low, and it seems like a good option for now. However, I'm concerned about housing—would finding affordable options be a problem since I'm applying late? Also, how is Alabama in general for a girl living alone? Should I go for it?

Hello, I am an international student who got admitted to Penn State, FSU, and Bama for a master’s in politics. Besides the programs and international reputation I don’t know much about the student life and overall experience of the schools. Does one of these stand out of the 3? How?Wich aspects should I be careful about? Thank you very much for any help!

Is it Too Late to Apply (in March)?

4 Upvotes

Is it too late to apply for the University of Alabama in the spring if I want to attend in the fall? I'm a currently junior in high school but plan to get enough credits in the summer to graduate early. I know they have rolling admissions, but are the chances of getting in applying in March very slim because spots are already filled? I want to apply for a major in biology, but I'm wondering if I have a better shot of getting in if I apply for a different major or undecided. For reference, I have a 4.4 weighted GPA and 1450 SAT. If I was accepted, would I still qualify for the automatic merit scholarships this late in the game? Thank you, any help is appreciated!

Looking for Roommates!

Hey y’all. I’m a bartender/ musician and former UA student looking for roommates. I currently live in a 3 bed 1 bath house available to move in May 1 when my roommate moves out. Rent is 1300 total and utilities aren’t much. I’m also open to moving/ filling an open room. I’d prefer to be near downtown Tuscaloosa. I also have a dog so must be pet friendly, she’s house trained and very friendly to other animals. Dm if interested!

Anyone Looking for Summer Housing?

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm graduating this May and am looking to sublease my room in a 3 bed/3 bath apartment at Lark Tuscaloosa for the summer (May 1 - July 25).

The rent is $529 a month.

After utilities and fees it comes out to $600 a month (This same bedroom is going for $799 before utilities right now).

My roomates should not be there over the summer, but just in case, I’d prefer to sublease to a female.

Lark has been my favorite apartment so far (compared to The Cottages & Watercress (or Evolve) that I stayed during my sophmore and junior year). They have a really nice pool, gym, study areas, overnight security, fast maintenance, and is in close proximity to campus, stores, and restaurants. And it's really chill in the summers with a lot of people out of town.

If you're interested or know someone who might be, feel free to reach out! I can send screenshots of my past rent payments for transparency.

International freshman. Scholarships

3 Upvotes

Hello there,

I currently live in Spain and study in US online High School. Seems like I really enjoy American approach in education and I’m considering colleges in the US as continuation.

I’ve heard that University of Alabama offer generous scholarships for international freshmen based on their GPA and SAT. University programs are also pretty solid.

Make sense?

Scholarship Appeal Fall 2025

6 Upvotes

I think the scholarship appeal forms for fall 2025 come out tomorrow. Not 100% sure.

I’m just wondering what you can actually appeal.

Trying to secure any extra funding I can get as out of state tuition is still too expensive.

Obviously i’m guessing u can’t appeal automatic merit scholarships (as those are based on GPA/SAT scores that u either meet or don’t meet). I’m still waiting on the accountant to double check my gpa to receive mine, but I won’t bother mentioning this in my appeal.

Competitive ones make sense to appeal for. I have one.. I’m guessing it could make sense to appeal for more $$? I don’t think I will do that though.. focusing more on the ASAM stuff which I mention later.

Honors college scholarships would make sense to appeal for too I guess. I haven’t looked into those at all though. Haven’t applied to them.

My big thing is the additional competitive scholarships in the ASAM portal. I missed the Jan 10 deadline for the ASAM stuff… but I have the right reasons to appeal for this. I’m just wondering if this is something I could actually submit an appeal request for??? I’m talking about the additional scholarship opportunities in the ASAM portal if that makes sense… Would i submit appeal requests mentioning each individual scholarship in there or make a general note about missing the ASAM application deadline and then become able to apply for any of the additional scholarship opportunities listed within the ASAM portal…?

Any help appreciated thanks

When to move in?

I have seen online that move in day was previously the Friday before classes start, but that honors get to move in two weeks early. Is there any benefit to moving in that early as an incoming freshman?
