<p>I want to withdraw from my college before classes start. I thought I was ready to make the move and take that next big step to live in the dorms, but I just don't feel comfortable. I don't know if living on campus , away from my family is the right fit for me. I originally went to the school for a major I was interested in at the time, but since then I have changed my mind on what I wanted to study. Now, that I decided to change my major, it doesn't make sense to stay at the university because it's out of state and I can go to college in state with my new major. I just want to make the right decision. I just dreaded every moment I've spent on campus so far. My roommate is cool but we don't have much in common. I rather go to school in my city where I can go to class during the day and go back home. I did try, I just didn't get a good vibe from the school , and nothing was going right for me. I just want to know if I'm doing the right thing. Please help. =)</p>
<p>Oh and I'm not a shy person. I make the attempt to talk to people and I actually enjoy meeting new friends. I'm just a laid back person overall.</p>
<p>You will have to talk to the administration at your school to find out the withdrawal policies and procedures and if you get any tuition refund for the semester. You might find some info to start with on the website.</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter if you have anything common with your roommate or not. If you turn out to be friends that is fine, but you only have to be able to room comfortably together. Sometimes it is best if you aren’t close friends cause you can have more quiet time in your room not having to be social. You will have another roommate next year, and likely get to pick yours. You will pick up friends who you do have things in common with over the year elsewhere.</p>
<p>You haven’t given the school a chance AT ALL or given yourself time to adjust and get over homesickness that many people have. Things may change drastically when you start class. You might consider finishing out this year and applying for a transfer back home. Otherwise, you will have to wait to start school until next fall, or spring if the school accepts late admissions.</p>
<p>If you do go ahead with a withdrawal, make everything official. DO NOT simply not show up to class. You must go if class starts before you figure this out or you may find yourself in a bad position.</p>
<p>Have you talked with your parents? Do you have any friends you can chat with, maybe some who are away for the first time too? Go talk to the RA if you need a sympathetic ear now.</p>
