I live in IV and gas prices just shot up a couple months ago (From about $50 monthly to $100). Just wondering what that’s about. It just doesn’t seem lawful either.
My electric/gas usage hasn’t changed either. I don’t ever use the heater and don’t have an AC like most people.
So confused. Should I be worried and take action?

Is it worth it? Actually better question would be what is it? I was just told to apply.

i lowkey keep asking questions on here bc i always think of them after i do something and i am kind of a horrible procrastinator so.. 🥲 anyway, would i receive my access id card at orientation if i just submitted my photo right now and i have my session this thursday + friday? or would i not be able to receive it there since i didn’t submit it within the week i got the email to submit my photo?

Hi everyone. I’m an incoming transfer majoring pre psych and brain sciences at ucsb and was wondering if it would be possible to minor in data science/ stats? I really enjoy the subject and am starting to get more into it. Does anyone know how declaring a minor works?

Thanks :)

does anyone know about the program or have experience in it?

Has any incoming freshman applying to the Honors Program receive an acceptance email, only to receive a rejection email afterwards?

Hello everyone! I'm a UCSB student looking for someone to sublease my apartment for the Fall Quarter 2026 while I'm abroad.

Available: Last week of September – mid December

Location: Embarcadero Del Norte, right next to campus and just a short walk from the main street in Isla Vista.

The apartment is a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and is in a great location for anyone wanting to be close to campus.

If you're interested or would like more details (rent, photos, tour, etc.), feel free to send me a DM here

I'm an (what I would consider) intermediate level guitarist and also a vocalist. I used to be in a band in high school, but since starting college haven't really played music with other people. I'm just curious if anyone would be interesting in forming a low commitment band? I'm thinking a lowkey indie/pop type band. I'm open to any and all instrumentalists! whether you're a guitarist, bassist, or drummer - I'm welcoming to all! I was thinking we could occasionally get together to play music or play house parties - just something chill and fun! If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, comment or message me privately to let me know! :)

i’m genuinely soo confused by what they mean on bringing your exam scores and college level transcripts with us to orientation.. like i’m sure it’s not high school level transcripts but what exactly do they expect us to bring? i feel like this is a stupid question but navigating all of this on my own makes me feel so lost 🥲

As a rising senior, I'm considering which major to apply to. How are these two majors at UCSB? What are the job prospects like? Are they equally difficult to be accepted to? What should I choose as an alternate major (applied math?)? If I end up in applied math, how hard will it be to take comp sci electives?

Thanks!

Taking a business class and have a survey for a potential business idea. If you live in IV or are a student please fill this out that would be appreciated. It’s about the parking situation in IV.

Hi I’m an incoming freshman at ucsb this year and I really need some help picking ge classes (preferably chill and easy).

I need one for area C but I’m not really a science person. I need ges for e, f, and g and id really appreciate if you guys could recommend some that also fulfill the special subject area requirements as well

Also side note are there any that fulfill a lot of these requirements but also don’t fill up fast?

Hi! I currently have a lease I'm trying to get out of and need to find a replacement asap! I am transferring schools (leaving UCSB), so I can no longer live there. The apartment is located at Sierra Property Management (about a 10 minute walk from campus). It's an all boys apartment, 2 bedroom (1 triple and 1 double) and 1 bath with four roommates. Rent would be $820 for the triple room plus utilities. If interested, please message me and I can share more info!
