<p>What about trying to transfer to the place you hope to do graduate work NOW? Some places it’s easier to get into the grad school, get TA’s etc, if you are already there as an undergrad. Then they know you, what you have taken, how good a student you are, yadda, yadda. And you have a chance to get to know what the professors are studying and cozy up to one or two of them in hopes of getting some research opportunity - either as an undergrad or grad student.</p>
