Is it unusual to transfer in the spring term?

<p>I was just wondering how many students transfer to a certain school in the spring term? I will be going to an out of state school in feb and am really worried about how smooth the transition will be. For instance, is it difficult to get housing in such circumstances(since most freshmen have already been assigned dorms and roommates ? And are the current students likely approach you and start a conversation or would you always have to take the initiative?</p>

<p>if you're a transfer, you're going to have to take the initiative in most situations.</p>

<p>Yes, I have heard that it can be more difficult to get housing as a spring transfer, but I think it depends on the school. And yes, I am sure that there are more fall transfers than spring transfers, but that doesn't really mean anything.</p>
