    And there’s a program for black students to get a better understanding of the school a week before classes start. Check out BNAACC’s Instagram to sign up (link in description)✨

    hi, I just came across your video. Can you please talk about your experience or time management for getting to class. I have some classes that are back to back and Im not sure how I would make it to class on time if they are on opposite sides of the campus.

    • @ClaudsVlogs
      @ClaudsVlogs  2 роки тому +2

      I would say once you get on campus walk around and find your classes. Some of the buildings may not be as far as it seems. Not gonna lie last semester I had a class one after the other but sometimes my classes ended early so I could rush to my next class. It depends on the class/teacher since they can be understanding. And even if your classes are far the buses come like every 5mins. If you got more questions don’t hesitate to ask or hmu on IG.

    Could you explain the bus system cuz I tried to use it when I registered for classes and it is so confusing lol

      @@ClaudsVlogs I can’t tell which bus is going where lol maybe that’s just cuz I don’t know where everything is yet. Im living in Scott and all of my classes are near the main quad so would it be worth taking the bus their or would the bus take longer?

    • @ClaudsVlogs
      @ClaudsVlogs  2 роки тому

      I recommend downloading the “Illini bus” app and using maps to the fullest extent! I was confused too until I started riding it more consistently. Just take the bus a lot before classes so you got it down pack before school really starts. If you got more questions don’t hesitate to hmu on Insta

    why did you choose Uof Illinois Urbana Champaign? What other schools did you consider?

    • @ClaudsVlogs
      @ClaudsVlogs  Рік тому +1

      It was the best option for me financial aid wise, and it’s a good enough distance to figure out how I am as an individual without l help from my parents.

      I don’t think so. All I know is that it’s close to BNAAC so it’s close to the union. I’m sorry I can be of much help but I know you’ll make the best of it

    Which dorm is the best one?

    • @ClaudsVlogs
      @ClaudsVlogs  2 роки тому

      It really depends on you. I feel like ISR is the best dorm for freshman but I’m biased. I spent time in both ISR and FAR but I enjoyed both of them minus the roaches at FAR😶 but it really depends on the experience you want.
