I am a current college student interested in transferring. Only thing is I’ve already transferred once.
Basically I started my freshman year at U of Rochester (Fall 2016)
Then took spring semester off.
And now am at Fordham (Fall 2017) so freshman/sophomore standing.
I know it probably doesn’t look good to have switched around so much, since it looks like I don’t know what I want, but it’s actually due to mental health reasons. However my question is if this is something I want to mention in my apps, probably in the section where they say you can include any additional information. I’m a little confused because at least then I’d be explaining why I switched, but mental health is still really stigmatized.
Any advice on what or what not to include? I was just planning on saying something like “Disruption in schooling due to medical reasons” or something. Is that too vague/would raise questions?
Thanks!
