Hi! I'm looking for remedies for colds. I've had this congestion and sore throat for about two weeks! I went to the doctor, and it's not strep or anything treatable. I'm miserable. I need those “my grandmother swears by” remedies.

I know people are waiting, so I figured I'd just make a new post. Email received at 4:11 pm on Thursday, 9/3.

Update: just after 11 it hit my account. Both deposits for the full amount. Pell, USF grants, and loans. Hope this helps everyone. Keep in mind, my bank posts as soon as they receive it. If yours doesn't, you should see it in the morning or sometime tomorrow, but it's on the way.

Does anyone know of any quiet spots on campus to study? I was trying to study on the third floor of the library and it got a little busy and people were talking a bit loud too (even with my AirPods on noise cancellation, I can still hear someone blasting music with his own headphones in across the table and people talking). Never been to the fourth floor so I’m not sure if that’s better or worse for studying. Any thoughts?

hopefully it posts in my bank soon🤞

Life gets so serious so quickly.

Make sure to have some fun at my old home.

Hi guys I lost two rings near endevoir in the village. They are two gold rings size 5 one is a pura vida wave and the other is a little gold band with a diamond in the center. They really mean a lot to me if anyone finds them or took them please return them they mean a lot.

so this saturday is my first football game i’m going to usf vs fiu and do we need to buy tickets for tailgate or how does tailgate work/ is it worth coming to tailgate?

I need to take an online, proctored exam and I’m looking for a private, quiet space on campus. I’d need a room with a power outlet where I can be completely alone, with no one entering or interrupting me during the exam.
Are there any spaces like this available to reserve for about two hours, like private study rooms, cubicles or anything?

Hey all, does anyone else know if they haven’t gotten their financial aid yet? I got approved for a few loans and I haven’t seen a cent :(

Does anyone know of some places I can volunteer with around USF? I need like 20-50 service hours.

Thank you in advance!

Did they change the bus stop for the Red Bus at University Mall? That was the spot I could park for free. I don't even see the bus drive by around there anymore. What are the new stops? That I can park for free nearby?

Did anybody receive their refund yet? I haven’t received anything and I’m worried

Hello bulls i want to be near more graduate students since they’re hotter than undergrad students and being around hot people makes me study better so help me. I know there’s a graduate study room in the library’s 5th floor but i think it’s locked or something 🙄

Is anyone going to Bruno Mars' concert and would be interested in being featured in a story for The Oracle? Let me know!!

Does anyone’s Bright Futures show up? Mine has not been posted to my account and I thought it would post 9/2.

i noticed that with this fall semester there are multiple of the emergency blue light phone kiosks that have become wrapped in transparent plastic wrapping. does anyone know why? are those ones inoperable or something? i have counted at least 3+ kiosks with this plastic

For context my friend is considering transferring and I really want him to so what are some fun on campus things I can do with him or take him that will help convince him? Hes just coming down for the day so any help would be great.

Anybody actually get their refund today? I also noticed there was no Edeposit email sent out like there is usually when the funds have been sent to the bank :(

I was thinking about doing gen Chem 1 and physics 1 in spring 2027 due to sudden change to graduate school plan (and having more science prerequisite than expected). I was on track to graduate early (I took A&P I fall 2025, A&P II spring 2026, and I am taking Microbiology right now), for my new graduate school plan I need A&P I & II, Bio 1, Chem 1&2, and Physics 1&2. So I was just wondering if it would be doable. Also if BSC2010/L would be doable in the summer term.

Can someone confirm what day exactly is the tuition bill available for paying?

What day exactly does merit and bright futures hit the account?

Thanks.

I accepted $3.75k in loans, but only 2.8 went through, and now it’s saying that’s all I accepted when it totally isn’t??? I’m going to speak with them after my first class tomorrow but I’m soooo pissed. This isn’t the first time they’ve messed me up (I was supposed to have an extra $600 for the spring but that also got snatched up by “extra fees”) but I needed that extra near thousand for the software my classes require. I’m so confused and tbh my head just hurts at this point.

Does it mean that my refund will be the RFIN + balance added together? Or will I only receive my balance... or only the refund.... There's a huge discrepancy between the two 😭

Does anyone have any tips or anything with dealing with stress. I am a freshman who wants to do lab research, but figuring out what to do and pathways feels so overwhelming.

I know that i still have time to think about it but I can’t help but want to be ready for it in my future, just no clue where to start.

Every day i feel like my heart is going to implode.
