<p>I am currently a freshman tier 1 top 50 NE liberal arts college, but I've been really disappointed by the work. Only one of my classes is interesting and challenging, and everyone wants to get drunk, do drugs, and procrastinate. I don't hate it, there are a lot of things I love about it, the location especially, and the idea behind the school. My coach for my sport is nearby for 4 months of the school year, and I do have one good friend here already.</p>
<p>However, I'm in state for UVA and I wonder if I shouldn't try and transfer. It would be a lot cheaper for me, and I feel like the academics would be more challenging.</p>
<p>So far I have gotten A's on all of my papers, except for one where I got an A+, and a 98% my midterm exam for one of my classes, my advisor is planning on nominating me for Honors Forum. I had a 3.8 GPA in HS (Unweighted). </p>
<p>My SAT scores are weak though, and I was rejected from UVA the first time around (wasn't my first choice though). I scored a CR: 700 M: 480 W: 650 on the SAT. </p>
<p>Originally I hadn't really wanted to stay in Charlottesville, since it is where I grew up, but if I'm getting a better education and it is cheaper, it might be a better plan.</p>
<p>Should I try and transfer? Do I have a shot even? I posted on the UVA board but I'm not getting much of a response, so I thought I would try here.</p>
