    My capstone project on rural healthcare. I visited a clinic and everything changed

    For my capstone, I'm researching healthcare access in rural communities. Been reading studies for months. Statistics about distance to care. Data about provider shortages. Papers about health outcomes. All abstract. All numbers. Last week, I visited a rural clinic. Part of my research. Just to...

    My term paper is on a topic I hate. I can't find motivation to write.

    Required class. Required topic. I have to write a 12-page term paper on the history of public health policy. I don't care about public health policy. I care about medicine.

    Middle Class Scholarship (MCS) - did anyone actually get theirs yet? 💸

    I'm a third-year at UCSD, and my family is in that weird middle-class purgatory where my parents make "too much" for the Cal Grant or the Pell Grant (like combined income around $120k), but we're definitely not rich. My dad works in construction, my mom is a teacher's aide, and they have two...

    Cal Grant A vs. B? I'm so confused. Which one is better for a low-income transfer?

    Hey everyone. I’m a returning student at a community college in the Central Valley, planning to transfer to a CSU for the Fall 2025 semester. I'm filling out my FAFSA and the Cal Grant GPA verification form, and I'm hitting a wall of confusion. I meet the income requirements, and my GPA is...
