[quote=Anonymous]My thought is that if your daughter investigates transfer options at this time, it should reduce anxiety about her social situation and she may enjoy her current school a bit more.

Most important, however, is that it will force your daughter to focus on what she wants and expects from her college or university experience.

When applying as a transfer student, it is best to write about positive aspects of her target school rather than listing negatives at one's current school. For example: Programs of instruction--such as studio art or marine biology--that are offered at the target school, but not at her current school.

Nevertheless, it is fine to comment on the lack of social life on weekends due to students going home rather than remaining on campus.  Small colleges /resident colleges like students who participate in social & academic activities 7 days a week as it makes campus life better for all students.

Hopefully, your daughter better understands her preferences now that she has actual on-campus college experience.[/quote]
