Hey all,
Never really done anything like this before so I apologize in advance for any vagueness and ranting style of writing. I ditched my original college choice last year due to a host of reasons and chose to attended CC for a year with the hopes of transferring to some of my dream institutions. I could not stand CC and transferred out after a semester to Alabama because I knew a lot of people there, knew my experience was bound to be better, was free, and knew I could get in right away. I was still planning on transferring after the semester to my dream schools not believing I could become too attached. I am a dumb, naive little kid what can I say. I recently got accepted into my dream schools, but am torn with what I should do. I knew this might happened, but believed I would still be able to leave. However, I just don’t know if I could do that now. I know my experience will be great wherever I go, but some schools just don’t have the same opportunity that others offer. Lastly, I made the best worst decision of getting a girlfriend. I would be a lair to say that this didn’t have any affect on my decision. I know that parents and others generally believe that you do not pick a school for your girlfriend, but I am in a unique position; do I consider not transferring for her (we would most likely be across the US from each other)? If I were to remove her from the equation I would transfer. If she is considered it is a coin flip on what I will decide to do.
Thank you all in advance for your feedback and I am open to all questions!
