<p>guranteed transfer to cornell</p>

<p>Why should you be depressed about going to UCSD if you get a guarantee transfer to Cornell in a year? You won't be there for long. A year isn't a lot of time at all if you compare it to four years.</p>

<p>true ( char)</p>

<p>whatever, i had fun at UCSD and i'm heading off for a real good grad school in fall -- i wanted to transfer out to UCB as freshman, but i'm glad I did not let some stupid preconception about UCB being better than UCSD lead me to lose out on the great time and opportunities i had at UCSD, plus having to start over meeting people and familiarizing with the place ... i do not know if the opportunities would have been same at UCB, but who cares now -- it worked out better than i expected when i came here as freshman</p>

<p>surely, there are people who are miserable at UCSD -- but i've had some friends from high school go to UCB and not everyone was having a blast there as they reported (one person was actually on antidepressants being unable to handle the stress and work load there) -- so i do not know what use it would have been transfering out to another UC at least -- UC's are very similar to one another ...</p>

<p>oo i had a turn around and i am in love with ucsd
plus ithica is soo cold and it would ruin my nice new ucsd tan</p>

<p>hehe i guess my prayers do make miracles happen. lol im kidding but anyways, im glad ur happy clairesolo! What college are you going to? I'll be heading Revelle. People said it sux no social life blah blah. i got really depressed because of that. I went to orientation, man i ono what they talking about, Revelle seemed like the more active college to me. so i also had a turn around and i fell in love with ucsd.</p>
