Hello,
I am currently a freshman (more like sophomore credits wise) at UTD. I’m thinking of transferring to either UNT or TWU because I have heard so many terrible things about the UTD psych program. I heard that the professors are all unnecessarily difficult and that there’s not much of a variety when it comes to professors. I currently am in good academic standing (3.9 gpa and all A’s) and am starting my major related courses this fall. However, I am a little bit apprehensive because of all of the bad things I have heard. I plan to stay at UTD for at least one more semester before making any decisions, but I wanted to know if you guys think it would be wise to transfer to one of those schools.
Would transferring to one of these schools hurt my chances of getting into a good graduate program? (I just hear that UTD is more competitive and holds more weight but have no idea if that’s true)
Is UTD’s psych program really as difficult as people make it sound? If it is, what about it is so difficult?
I am thinking of apply UNT or TWU for grad school because I do not want to go into research which is mainly what UTD’s grad program offers? Are there better schools/programs in the area that I should consider?
If I do leave UTD, would you recommend UNT or TWU?
I know that that was a pretty loaded post so thanks to anyone who is able to help me out a bit!
