Did you tell your school you were transferring?

I’m scared to tell my school I’m transferring because I may not actually leave. I haven’t fully made up my mind but I am doing all the work and filling out all of the applications to see what happens. The common app wants my advisors information and I worry that I will look bad to the school if I do not transfer since it will look as though I do not care about the school or program I am currently in. I like my school, but it is pretty boring and I think I could really use a change.
