[quote=Anonymous]Bad fit is a valid reason to transfer, but as others have said, it can be hard to transfer and find your people (especially after sophomore year) unless there is an orientation program specifically for transfers (ideally a pre-orientation program), he has the opportunity to live with other transfers or someone he knows, and he gets involved in clubs/activities right away. Wherever he applies, he will be asked to articulate "why" from an academic/professional standpoint. The key is to be sure he will have and take advantage of opportunities to connect right away. As I reminded my daughter who successfully transferred after sophomore year from a large public to a small LAC: your own issues, habits, and tendencies will follow you to the next school. You have to examine all of that and make sure you still feel strongly about making the move.[/quote]
