One other thought to make this semester tolerable: Can you try to branch out to neighboring schools for social activities (concerts and such?) Within 10-15 minutes of Hopkins you have Loyola, Towson, Goucher, even UMBC, Coppin State, Morgan State aren’t far. That is a LOT of schools right around you!
^^^^^ My thoughts exactly. Isn’t there a free shuttle that will take you to all the other campuses in greater Baltimore? You could check all of them out.
@Alexkoz47 it sounds like you have had a tough time. Maybe you need to take some more time before continuing with college. Your well being should be your top priority. What’s the rush? Do your research before you transfer. Visit campuses while classes are in session. Talk to the students. Sit in on a class. Spend time in student union. Go to a sporting event. I have noticed that schools with decent sports teams seem to have an abundance of school spirit. This helps to foster the sense of community that you may be looking for. You really need to be sure the next place you attend is the right fit. I wish you the best of luck.
As I read all the comments offered to you about schools with a different atmosphere, social scene, etc. I wonder if college is worth pursuing at this point in your life? If you are struggling to find the motivation and enthusiasm then this may not be the right time to sink so much money where you struggle to achieve its benefits whilst you are unhappy. Take (more) time off but think of it as your gap year instead of an absence forced upon your state of mind. If funds are not a major issue, try volunteering in a service program. Be part of something bigger than yourself (pardon the cliché…but its true). I think too many young adults are pre-programmed and brainwashed that college is the only way to succeed. While that has many truths to it, it is also an exaggeration. Follow you passion. If academics isn’t a passion, consider trade school. Don’t burn $$$ doing what you know is not motivating you. Don’t just fill a seat in a classroom. Break out of the mold. Peter Thiel (PayPal founder and serial entrepreneur) started an alternative to the typical college-track (see Thiel Fellowship). The idea being if you have talent, college isn’t always and the only way to tap into it. There are alternatives like this emerging more and more.
Good luck, best wishes.
