<p>Do people look down upon that? Do professors and TAs start treating you differently, as if you are a traitor? Or is it the opposite? Do professors feel that you are being friendly for just the sake of getting recommendations?</p>
<p>secretly they are kind of bummed that your leaving, but they are also happy that you are doing whats best for you…so they will act happy about it and be glad to write a rec and also flattered that you asked them</p>
<p>I’ve never heard of profs or TAs being a problem, they understand that students have different needs.</p>
<p>The only problems I have heard about are:</p>
<p>From the school administration, students here on CC have sometimes had problems figuring out who fills out the College Official’s form. They get the run around from administrators and it’s not something a teacher can do as they have to have access to the student’s official records.</p>
<p>The other instance was with my D1s advisor who was filling out the College Official’s form. She knew D1 well but failed to mention in the evaluation that she was one of a dozen of 6k fr to have a full ride merit scholarship. My D only found out because one of the schools she was applying to had a different form and it was sent to the wrong school and then returned to her.</p>
<p>I assume the College Official’s Form is filled out by my advisor, who also happens to be the department head?</p>
<p>wow entomom thats really good for your daughter though…and the department head will be fine with filling out the form because his job is to help students to succeed and if that is what you need to succeed then he will be happy to do it for you…i am more worried about telling friends rather than what the teachers will think…</p>
<p>If they’re a real friend, they’ll be happy for you. </p>
<p>Except for her roommate who she was very close to, D1 didn’t tell others until after she had transfer acceptances and was sure she was leaving, no reason to bring up a lot of ‘what ifs’ that might not happen.</p>
<p>whats the latest you think i could tell my friends before leaving? like with 1 month left? or just after i get accepted because im transfering to a boarding school</p>
<p>My roommate and I have a consensus that we would both transfer out of our school. Good thing that’s figured out.</p>
<p>yeah good thing</p>
