Very Informative as always. Great video as well. See you around the campus

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Thanks and see you around!

[@annsmith8233]

I find your video very informative for the new student .You are an ambassador for SGU and my country .

[@BrittneyKilgore]

I really try :)

[@risharantoine3125]

Love it as always Brit!! Can't wait for cooking video☺

[@francesca6837]

Soooo informative! Thank you! Would you ever be willing to do a video on car buying experiences in Grenada? I've heard it can be extremely difficult to get reliable transportation outside of the bus. Thank you!

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Yes sure! It's been one of my to-do videos so it should be coming soon!

I have not been back to Grenada ( Greens ) in a long time...thank you for the informative video

[@GRTVO]

My mum’s friend lives in Frequente. We stayed in her upstairs apartment. Love your videos.

[@kemolhastick9995]

I live in Grenada

[@Bete_Noir]

Is it true that SGU is for pre-meds and pre-vets who couldn't make the cut for American medical schools? I've heard that it's just a very expensive diploma mill. What's the deal?

[@BrittneyKilgore]

No. They definitely do have a lower GPA requirement so it ends up being another alternative for those students, but its still accredited the same as US Med/Vet Schools so students still learn the same things

[@irenapetrous9254]

Thanks for your entertaining and informative videos BrittnEy! I love your friend Courtney's apartment in True Blue. I have always wanted an outdoor shower and fruit trees in my backyard. The "infinity" pool is fantastic! I will be starting at SGU's SOM in January 2022, living in an on campus studio to start. I am interested in living in a place like Courtney's come summer 2022. I will be staying in Grenada year round. Can you please provide a direct contact for Courtney's landlord (or for similar) spaces so I can get in touch with that party in advance? I hope you and Toulouse are well!

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Hi! Courtney is still there so if you don't mind messaging me on Facebook or Instagram, I can exchange contact info if you want! There's LOTS of off-campus housing. More than I could ever put in one video. I can give you more info if you message me! That way I don't have to explain in the comments and it'll be easier lol

[@irenapetrous9254]

@@BrittneyKilgore I understand. Will do. Thanks for responding.

[@TheChemist2412]

Question: when it comes to toilet paper and flushing, are you allowed to flush toilet paper or are the pipes too small and they require you to throw away toilet paper? I know in Nicaragua, Panama and a lot of places in Mexico you cant flush TP... thanks

[@Mr-E.]

Interesting point Contra, I didn't think of that, would be curious to know the answer as well.

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Yes we can flush tissue down the pipes. I've never been told to watch how much or anything, but I use the bathroom normally and never have any issues :)

[@TheChemist2412]

@@BrittneyKilgore thank you for the speedy reply...also, thank you for the info :)

[@lelabb4110]

Any restrictions when can move off campus. How much pay for non share unit ie own kitchen bath n bed. The guy set up nicely, how much hes paying..nevermind watch until end $1500-wow!. Thanks

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Its required to live on campus your first year. And it depends what location/landlord you find. Some can be as cheap as $500 to a place for yourself and some as high as $1400

[@lelabb4110]

@@BrittneyKilgore Thanks oh really some say can move off campus anytime. Referencing the Medical School campus. Oh well, one might not get to the Island in 2020, Fall sem online

[@BrittneyKilgore]

@@lelabb4110 I mean technically you can but the school says it requires 1 year. People get around that. I never lived on campus. But its the same for the vet/med school. And yes I know. I'm disappointed

[@jeer.5281]

I am interested in coming to SGU,although I have a long way to go 😅😅. But I wanted to find out if you know if native born Grenadians coming back to Grenada for school can live with family or whatever??? I just think that might be better for me

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Of course. They don't care where you live :)

[@jeer.5281]

Brittney Kilgore thank you 😊

[@guarjamelanistic5716]

Again very informative vid... Great job 👍🏽👍🏽...

[@kingnaldo4058]

With such high rent for college students, how do y'all eat?🤔

[@BrittneyKilgore]

We don't haha. Just kidding. Alot of students live off of loan money or family back home helps

[@martinhuang1750]

Appreciate the efforts making this informative video! But what's the price like if you live a bit further from campus? Like in a safe neighborhood and not too far from grocery stores etc. Would it be cheaper that way? Thank you!

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Most of the housing I showed were not "close" to campus. There are 5 main bus routes, but only some apartments are right outside of campus. For example, I'm relatively close to campus in comparisonof the whole island, but still much further than some student housing. There are some housing far from campus in these areas that are still $1000/month and higher. When you get really far from the school, SGU can't guarantee it's integrity and you find this housing at your own discretion. It would also mean you would need your own transportation

[@martinhuang1750]

@@BrittneyKilgore thank you so much!!

[@martinhuang1750]

@@BrittneyKilgore by the way, do you have any videos/information on the costs of cell phone plans, health insurance, and gas? :)

[@BrittneyKilgore]

@@martinhuang1750 I don't. I use my cellphone plan from back home. I think it's about 50/50 on students who use them. Health insurance prices can be found on the SGU website. And gas is about $5 US/gallon. You can message me on facebook and I can give more info

[@rmadisond]

Hi I am new to your page and going to be a student August 2022, do you have any videos on Scholarships and how student loans work at SGU?

[@BrittneyKilgore]

I don't...there are minimal scholarships in the vet program...practically none for american students. Most students rely on loans through FAFSA if you are American or private loans if international. I would contact SGU's financial aid office for more scholarship options

[@rmadisond]

Hi Britney, where are the $800 apartments located?

[@BrittneyKilgore]

It varies on what is available. You'll have to check the facebook housing page: SGU OFf campus classified

[@didi3950]

Hi how can I contact you?

[@dominiquestewart6609]

Can you find an apartment that is set up for a husband and wife situation? And the price for one?? And how much does it cost to ship a barrel??

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Dominique Stewart I suggest you add the Facebook page. There’s so many possibilities and depends on what you all are looking for. There are some as cheap as $700 up to $2000. Depends if you want to share a room or have 2 rooms. There’s definitely places. Usually a barrel costs about $200 to send depending on where it’s being sent fron

[@niadubissette2238]

Girl love your video

[@hemlock8368]

Hay I really wanted to visit so will you be able to help me

[@kizzylambert8439]

do you have to pay for rent a month with out of pocket money or does that come with your overall tuition fees ?

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Out of pocket fees. Tuition is only for things paid directly to the school. You can take out extra loans to help these costs though

[@Mr-E.]

When everyone says they have internet and WiFI, is the internet speed good? Or is it super slow and drops out all the time? I think internet speed would be my main concern. Maybe on the campus it is better?

[@BrittneyKilgore]

My wifi works great at home. I brought a amplifier so it works just as fast in all rooms (it got weaker in my room) but it depends on the apartment. My gf never has an issue with hers. Some people prefer to buy their own but most places for students have good wifi. Campus wifi too is pretty good

[@Mr-E.]

@@BrittneyKilgore Thank you for the reply I appreciate it! That definitely makes me feel better about the wifi. Also your videos have been really thorough about covering every day things, like the stuff people only notice when they are actually there... so I'm feeling much more confident moving there in the near future.

I'm in the states for now but thanks forfollowing me and supportng me! I follow her as well!

[@mirandagoss848]

Are you able to work to make money to pay rent while you are there? If you live off loans would that just be added to your student debt?

[@BrittneyKilgore]

Yes, the loans are added to your student debt. And unfortunately, non-Grenadians can't work down there
