Transferring During Spring Semester

<p>I'm going to be a freshman in college the fall but I don't like my college and the environment its in. Its in a small town and everything is so spread out and I don't feel welcomed there. I want to transfer to a college in the city during spring semester. I have to send a lot of information to that college to transfer, and they want my high school transcripts. Do I have to contact my high school for those transcripts or would my college that I'm going to have those and who do I go to at my college to talk to about transferring. I want to get as much of my information handed in so that I can get a spot at that new college in the spring. Feel free to include any information or advice about transferring.</p>

<p>You should directly contact your high school for your transcripts. I talked to my Dean of Students when I was thinking about transferring, but it’s mostly a hands off process for the administration at your current college. However, make sure that this college will take you for your second semester. Most colleges want to see a year of college work completed. Good luck!</p>

Are you to late attend that college in the Fall?</p>

<p>Or, you could take this Fall semester off and to start the college that you like in the Spring semester.</p>

<p>I just called the college and she said that I can transfer in the fall! They want me to complete the transfer application through common app. I was wondering if I am suppose to have my high school counselor send my transcripts through there?
Also I plan on calling her back is there any other questions I should ask her?</p>

<p>You should contact your counselor immediately and ask her to submit your transcripts. For transfer applicants you can’t submit a transcript through the common app so you can ask for an official transcript and send it yourself.</p>

<p>My high school counselor or college and I meant spring not fall</p>

<p>High School. He/she will have your final transcript. Your college is unlikely to.</p>
