Possible transfer

Currently, I’m attending a prestigious liberal arts college in California. However, the liberal arts education and the campus vibe don’t seem to be what I want from a college. I’ve been thinking about Santa Clara now because I applied EA last year (and got in) but went to my ED school (since I got in).

  1. Would being accepted already help me transfer more easily?
  2. What is the overall campus vibe like? Specifically, are there Christian groups on campus, and are the groups committed? Is there political diversity on campus? (are there also conservatives there)?
  3. Would transferring be difficult because RLCs are already in place?
  4. Would there be an RLC that would fit with a Christian and conservative individual?

If you are there as an athletic recruit or got any merit aid, be sure to factor that into the cost equation when looking at transferring.
