Hi, I just started college a few days ago. I’m at a college 15 minutes from my home but I decided to try dorming for the full experience. However, I am extremely homesick and and regretting not commuting. I would have saved money and the adjustment would have been much easier. I’m debating whether or not requesting to switch and commute after the fall break. Any thoughts?
I would wait…everyone is homesick at this point. Try to make a point of staying on campus on the weekends and making friends.
Do both. Head home on Monday and Tuesday for a family meal and maybe a load of laundry. But, stay on campus on the weekend and have a good time. Good luck.
