<p>@mgumby22 Is there a transfer fb yet I’m not aware of?</p>
<p>@Sammvp1 yes there is! Here’s the URL: <a href=“https://www.facebook.com/groups/667591383321853/”>https://www.facebook.com/groups/667591383321853/</a>
This will probably just take you to a WashU page where you need to enter your WashU email to verify that you’re a student. They’ll send you an email to the WashU address and you click the link which will take you to a page where you can search for different groups within WashU. Search for something like “transfer 2014-2015” and you’ll find the group.</p>
<p>@Sammvp1 well that link didn’t work on the forum so I sent you a message with the link</p>
<p>Did you all find out what residence you are staying at? Are you all placed in The Lofts on Delmar? </p>
<p>I got placed in South40 House! That was my number one choice, so I was really excited. @thenoble</p>
<p>Guys, I’m having a crisis. I’ve already withdrawn from my old school so it’s too late to change my mind about transferring, but I’m still freaking out. I’m not even sure why WashU accepted me, since I’ve heard that they are notoriously hard with transfer students and my application was awful. And while my stats are nice, I really haven’t done anything amazing like it seems most students there have. (My letter of recommendation must’ve been gold.)</p>
<p>If I’m totally honest with myself, I transferred because I felt like I could’ve gone to a better school (not that mine was bad) and I felt so much pressure from my town (they expected better) and mostly from my father. My father never wanted me to go to the school I went to and I really feel that. These are kind’ve terrible reasons to transfer, I know, and I never expected to like so many people from my old school.</p>
<p>But if I’m totally honest with myself again, WashU is clearly a much, much better fit for me, and while I would be “happy” at my old school, I would never be satisfied. And I would definitely regret staying when I have this opportunity in front of me. And my year was really average, I’m just nostalgic about the summer (I spent it at the school), which was phenomenal. Even just student-culture-wise, WashU has so much more to offer than my old school.</p>
<p>Sorry, just needed to get that off of my chest. If anyone can further convince me I made the right decision, that would be much appreciated.</p>
<p>@jmarshtomp It sounds like you worked out your worries in your own post. I’m here at WashU now, as a transfer on a pre-o and already I know I made the right decision. Just get here and once you settle in, you’ll feel it too. Don’t worry about what the “right” reasons are. You already know how Wash U makes you feel so that’s all that matters :)</p>
<p>@Sammvp1 Thanks a lot! If everyone’s like you, then yeah, I won’t have anything to worry about. :)</p>
I’m a transfer applicant of 2015 fall and am applying to Sam Fox. Really hope to be friends with you guys! But I’m not sure if I will be accepted.
