<p>Hey guys, so I'm in a dilemma. Here's my situation...</p>
<p>I applied to my dream school, University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, but I didn't get in. So I chose my back up school, Mizzou. I loved Mizzou at first and made a ton of friends, but the only thing I didn't like about it was the distance. My parents wanted me closer to home, and they encouraged me to apply to the University of Minnesota again and were pressuring me without realizing it. So, I started thinking about transferring. I didn't do much research on if it was the right decision or not, and I didn't talk to many people about it except for my parents. I ended up transferring spring semester to the University of Minnesota. Now that I'm here, I don't think it was the right decision. The school isn't what I thought it was going to be, and after doing more research on it, I found that it's natural for people to question transferring because of homesickness but they highly recommend NOT to do it, because eventually you get over it. I've been here a month so not that long, but I really don't like it here. I miss my friends a lot and i've made friends here, but none that i have really clicked with. I started to realize that transferring because of homesickness isn't the best reason to transfer, especially since I wanted to get far away from my hometown as possible. I'm considering transferring back to Mizzou, which doesn't look that hard to do.
I'm just looking for advice. I really don't have anyone to talk to because not a lot of people I know have transferred, or if they have, they love the school that they transferred to. I feel completely unhappy at my new school which I never felt at MIzzou, and I just can't shake this nagging feeling away that I made the wrong decision. </p>
