[quote=Anonymous]I wish my mom would've been more outspoken. I had my heart set on Boston College - a lovely, excellent School to be sure but a terrible fit culturally for me. I knew my mom had worries but didn't really say anything. Well, lo and behold, I hated it and within a semester was begging her to let me transfer anywhere else. I ended up transferring to a different school that was both cheaper and a better fit for me (I was much happier) but the process of applying to transfer, trying to figure out fin aid at the new school, etc. was definitely a hassle. Not to mention I was kind of beaten down after a crappy first year of college. So I do kind of wish my mom would have shared her concerns, not in a lecture-y way, but in a candid, here's what I think way. But maybe I would've still said "to hell with Mom, what does she know?" and gone anyway...as 18 years often do. Who knows. [/quote]
