Considering transfer to NU...thoughts?

<p>I am currently a freshman at Barnard College at Columbia University in New York City. I'm not entirely unhappy, but it was not quite what I was looking for. The all-female dynamic isn't for me, the faculty and students are generally uninspiring and I frequently find myself thinking I made a mistake. I want a bigger, more rigorous school that still has some connections with a city. I will miss New York, but the school community just isn't right for me.</p>

<p>What do you think about this decision? What do you like about NU? Not like? What are my chances?</p>

<p>I have a roughly 3.5 gpa (I honestly don't know...mostly A's and one B in a 3000 level course), am involved in community service, and have no record of suspensions/other disciplinary issues.</p>

<p>THanks!</p>
