[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not work hard, get a 4.0 and transfer somewhere preferable? Transferring isn’t ideal but it’s very common. Could be easier to get into certain schools as a transfer student vs regular applicant [/quote] We don't know the schools in question or the student's intended major or desired career. Specifics matter. The son is reacting to rejection in an emotional manner. May be a good course of action or may not be. He will experience strong emotions in the fall. A gap year visiting grandpa & grandma on their working farm is a safe retreat, not an exercise of independence like venturing into the real world.[/quote]
