I’m transferring to Marist! I was admitted for the Spring Semester. I’m transferring for a few reasons. Marist is closer to home (I’m from Connecticut) and their communications program is stronger compared to Loyola’s. The atmosphere at Loyola isn’t what I thought it was going to be, and I’m pretty disappointed by it. Making friends at Loyola is hard for me, especially because I’m not from a private high school and came here knowing nobody. Cliques form easily here and in order to have a decent social life, a fake id is needed to get into bars and clubs. The majority of Loyola kids go out Thursday-Saturday. While there are events held on campus, not a lot of people attend. I’m often alone in my dorm bored, wishing I could be at home. I’m not trying to bash Loyola at all because my professors are amazing and the campus is gorgeous, but I feel like I could get a better and cheaper education elsewhere. Sorry this was so long haha.
