I chose to go to an out of state school and it was really a bad idea. I don’t like it here, it’s difficult for my parents financially because my dad just got unemployed/medical bills, and I miss home. I feel so stuck and I want to transfer to UC Davis but it’s apparently hard to get in as a sophomore transfer and I don’t know what to do. What should I do?
Try to transfer. You don’t know until you try. Even if you have to go to a CC for a year and then transfer.
I suggest you come back to California and attend a community college then using TAG transfer to UCD.
