Thank you for the advice! The unbalanced list of schools comes from not knowing-at all-what I was doing, and just applying all over the place to cover bases. I didn’t have a counselor that was knowledgeable of schools that fit my particular skill set.

And, before anyone says it again: Yes, I know, try out the school, see if you like it before you talk about transferring.

It’s not that I know I won’t like the school, because liking the school isn’t the problem. I like a lot of schools, but not all of them are right for me. The school really doesn’t “fit” me, and I will hopefully better define what does this first semester.

I have seen several alums from the school go to grad school for an art related major, and some just straight into their profession. However, that is not the path I wish for myself.

Thanks!

Note: I don’t know how this comes across on the internet, but take it as informational rather than smug. Reading it back to myself, I realized it could be read a few different ways.

Respectfully,
