I talked to my dad about transferring from my current university to either a different 4-year university or a 2-year community college. He seemed pretty open and understanding (it’s just my mom who isn’t…). But he said if I transferred, I’d have to transfer to a 4-year college, which I’m fine with. My two options are either Cal Lutheran, which I’m hoping I can transfer into after this semester (probably not though), or Long Beach (but the thing is, with Long Beach, they don’t accept lower division transfers, so I would HAVE to transfer as a junior). I’d either transfer at the end of this year or at the end of my sophomore year. Which option do you think is better though? Transferring after 1 semester here at my current university, finishing the whole year and then transferring sophomore year to CLU, finishing sophomore year then transferring to CSULB, or transferring from my university to a community college, spending a year / year and a half there, and then going to CSULB? Also, how would all the credits transfer over? Are these just dumb ideas? I really don’t want to stay in my current university though. And my dad understands that, it’s just that my mom doesn’t. But I told him to talk to her and hopefully, she’ll listen to him better than she does to me.
Idk if this will help with transferring, but I got into Cal Lutheran last year when I applied as a senior in high school. Also, do they give scholarships to transfers? I got some scholarships when I applied last year, but I don’t think they’d give those again if I apply as a transfer, right?
