Unhappy at local college with full ride & desperately want to transfer

Right now, I’m applying to UChicago and UM: Ann Arbor. I was accepted to both last year but various practical (read: financial) and personal reasons prevented me from going to either.

Are you and your family able to afford 3 years of Chicago or UM-AA but not 4 years? That seems to be the only obvious way that transferring now would be possible when entering as frosh was not.
