missing out on transfer school?

<p>this could just be me...but for those of you who transferred, don't you feel like you missed out on freshman year? (i.e. orientation, first year social networking/niches, etc.)</p>

<p>i'm asking bc i didn't get into my dream school but have intentions of transferring. hypothetically if i get in, i'll be behind the hype since those students already got in freshman year.</p>
