[quote=Anonymous]I transferred in the middle of my sophomore year for financial reasons. I was a first-generation student and didn’t understand until then how much I was racking up in loans (thankfully it hadn’t been that much by that point). I had to leave the decent LAC I was attending on scholarship, as the scholarship wasn’t cutting it. My situation was a little weird in that I had no demonstrated financial need on paper. But anyway, my most palatable option financially was a regional state school. I enrolled there and couldn’t believe it. The kids were lazy as f*k. The state school was considered academically similar to my previous school in various metrics but in reality they were night and day. The antics in classes and in the dorms were comparable to my middle school. I graduated, but in hindsight I may have been better off taking time off until I was closer to 24 and applying somewhere better. My point? Investigate transferring very carefully. [/quote]
