[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s no guarantee that a transfer would improve the situation, especially because she’d be trying to break into cohorts established the year before. HOWEVER. She’s miserable. She’s tried *really hard* to get involved. Look for schools that offer transition support for transfer students, like orientation cohorts. She can ask admissions office about that. And/or schools where joining sororities in soph year is reasonably common. It’s definitely worth at least looking around and applying so she has options if things don’t suddenly turn around. [/quote] +1 Agree. Let her apply and see how she feels once she has other options in a few months. It sounds like she just hasn't been able to break into what amounts to quite exclusionary social circles at her institution. Not all institutions are like that. Maybe things will turn around for her in a few months, but I would definitely want my kid to have some options at this point. [/quote]
