Nervous about transferring (not a chance thread but cold feet!)

Transfer Students
1

<p>For this whole semester I've debated applying for transfer for NYU spring semester. Sure enough, I did and was accepted and I put down my deposit. However, I feel really sad leaving two friends I could proudly call my brothers and a whole bunch of other good people I met down here. I have a great GPA at my current school, love my professors and my courses, feel safe within my campus, and have finally felt like things have started to "click" at college for me. However, I want to transfer to NYU to study more of East Asia which I can't do at my own school, and to get better internships in NYC, near which I spent most of my childhood. It is a financial burden to transfer and I am wary of leaving stability behind for NYU and NYC, but I feel for my career path it is a right choice.</p>

<p>Does anyone have any consoling or enlightening thoughts on the matter?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>If it’s a financial burden, I would not transfer.
You can always get summer internships in NYC.
And, you seem to be someone who enjoys closeness, and I don’t know how you will feel about NYU. </p>

<p>If you’re currently a freshman, I would re-assess everything, and apply to a school with a good East Asian Studies program that offers good financial aid. You still have a lot of time.</p>
