I wouldn’t reach out if I didn’t feel desperate for some advice…

I am a Sophomore at Wheaton College (IL) and hoping to transfer to a regular four-year liberal science program next fall, preferably on the east coast. The problem is that I haven’t completed any applications yet, and March 1st deadlines have already passed me by.

I want to attend an academically rigorous program as I have intentions of pursuing a masters degree in art history and going into museum studies. I want to leave Wheaton most significantly because there is virtually no art history program there… It is also lacking an art community and resources to the art world.

I’d prefer somewhere urban that has decent financial aid opportunities for transfers.

Maybe it’s too late to be asking these questions for admission into a program next fall. I’m starting to feel pretty cornered, but would appreciate any outside advice.
