<p>Thanks for the replies everyone.</p>
<p>I didn’t go to school (long story. Abusive childhood.). Before this year, I had never set foot in a classroom or written a single essay. I don’t have a high school transcript or SAT scores. Community college was a way for me to gain confidence in my academic skills, and to get me higher in math (math is the only thing I could not learn by reading books growing up. I have an extensive knowledge of history, science, biology, chemistry, and writing, but am in pre-algebra at the CC.). Still, the environment is so negative here, and I don’t drive, making getting to classes and events difficult. Job opportunities are thin here, and I don’t have any friends as I am not originally from the area.</p>
<p>I just think it would be better for me to transfer with the intent to start at a new school fall 2014. By then I will have finished with remedial math, and have enough transferrable credits (30+) so that the colleges won’t require SAT scores. Private schools often offer hefty scholarships, do they not? I am making an appointment with a counselor to talk it over.</p>
