Transfer Students

<p>I go to SUNY Geneseo. It was my safety school. last year I applied early decision to Cornell and I really wanted to go there. I like Geneseo, and I wouldn't be upset if I had to stay, but it really isn't what I was hoping college would be like. It's too small, there's nothing to do, and there's not a lot to choose from. It's okay, but I know I would be happier at Cornell. I'm also thinking I should apply to BU. How do you know if you should transfer? What if I transfer and I feel the same away about the next school? I'm scared.</p>

<p>Anyway, here's my info.
HS average 96
6 APs that I got credit for
College GPA 3.54
I'm not worried at all about the extracurriculars or anything, I've got that covered.
Who do I ask for recommendations? No one knows me.</p>

<p>Please give me any advice you have. I'm open to anything.</p>

<p>You can never be sure until you actually matriculate but it's a risk you have to take if you're serious about leaving your current school. You probably should solidify your reasons for wanting to leave and be able to articulate them well. </p>

<p>As for Cornell and BU, you yourself know that with a 3.54, you'll be reaching big. Make a list of schools that have the attributes you're looking for and apply broadly.</p>
