<p>I am interested in transferring to an out of state school after the completion of this school year (I am a sophomore). I don't know anyone that attends the school I'm looking at, and it's several states away (I currently attend a school in my home state) so I'd be really going out on a limb. I'm just wondering if anyone has ideas or experience on how easy it is to fit in at a new school if you transfer as a Junior. Would it be weird for me to live in the dorms with a randomly assigned roommate as an upper classman? Would I be able to make friends, etc? Please help!</p>
<p>it might be a littlem ore unusal but rest assured people do it all the time. if you are open and friendly you are going to be able to make new friends. not to say the transition will be super easy and you will not have any feelings of being lonely, but you will be able to make new friends if you put yourself out there.</p>
