Hello all,
Well long story short, I attended Arizona State for a year because I’m from Arizona however, after my freshmen year I transferred to the University of San Francisco because I earned a full Army ROTC scholarship there, and it’s one of the best battalions in the west coast. Okay so, I was just diagnosed with a heart disorder which basically means the boot for me and USF without a scholarship is about 51K a year. It’s a small jesuit private university.
So my dilemma. I can either stay there and pay the loans for the next 50 years (90+K–because their financial aid is horrible) or transfer back to ASU, or to Penn State University Park where I received some aid and would end up paying like 25K a yr.
Some details that might matter:
I am an entering junior. I am a psych major and neuroscience minor. I always have GPA’s over 3.4+.

My only concern about transferring is that this will be my third undergrad school. Although its not like I have been getting kick out of the other schools or anything, but I do aspire to get into a good grad school where I can pursue clinical psych or neuropsychology. So I would truly HATE for this to be a deterrent to my career.

ANY ADVICE please =(
Thank you!
