Thanks for the response. My academic reasons for transferring are that my institution is very limited in class availability, and it’s been prohibiting me from being able to take my major-related ones. We’ve got a very big student population and a small number of classes, so I want to be able to study Economics and Philosophy at the best school possible to really challenge and push me. Also, I’m really interested in conducting research on Econ and my school doesn’t have many opportunities in that field.
