Leaving College After A Week?

Student Lounge College Life

<p>Well I am a sophomore, and all summer I have been thinking that I would rather attend another college that is closer to home and that had a Vet Tech. Program. The school I am in currently has no Vet. program and the classes I am taking cannot be used for a Vet Tech. Degree. So transfering isn't really an option. Anyways, I absolutely hate living in the dorms (last year I had an apartment) and am miserable and depressed. </p>

<p>Is it weird of me to leave so soon, so that I can attend another school in the spring. If I stay then I will be wasting about $10,000 for credits that can't be transfered to another college for the degree I want. Should I waste the money and stay? If you saw someone moving out after a week what would you think of them?</p>

<p>I would think that the person who left decided that the environment they were in wasn’t a good fit for them so they moved to greener pastures. Whether it be another school, another job, another country, I wouldn’t know. I might also think that there was an emergency or an economic crisis that forced the person to leave. </p>

<p>I tend to reserve the “OMGz he/she is a loser!” for people that picked non-marketable majors then complain that they can’t find employment, for people who drop out and go into unskilled labor, and for people who believe in socialism. </p>

<p>Usually the loser party types that drop out don’t do it during the semester, they drop between semesters.</p>

You would be gone so what does this matter? Save yourself the money.</p>

<p>Why did you wait until after you started the semester?</p>

<p>How sure are you that you can be admitted to a school in the spring with a Vet Tech program?</p>

<p>If you stick this out, and get a degree in something you don’t/won’t want to do then you’ll look more stupid then quitting when you’re a Sophomore. Do you know how many people change their mind during college? A ton!</p>

<p>I waited so long because my family wanted me to, they said just give it a try. and the Vet. Tech school is easy to get into.</p>

<p>why not? If you’re not happy and Vet. Tech is your hearts desire, why not do it and save yourself the money.</p>

<p>My freshmen year, I saw a girl move out on Freshmen move in day</p>

<p>Yeah you might stick out a lot, but you’ll never see the people again so it doesn’t matter. Leave if you want to though, no use wasting money on something you don’t want to do.</p>

<p>Talk again with your family and convince them this is right for you. Best of luck.</p>
