Currently at Pomona College, thinking of transferring out to a cheaper school (UF)

In theory you knew this up front. Are your parents making you pay them back - ie independence ? Are you going to be ok with more bureaucracy, larger classes ?

UF is a fine school but very different. Pomona is elite. But no finance.

I’d ensure you understand the finances as a transfer.

What myself or anyone else would choose is not relevant even though all of us could probably answer (for ourselves).

Only you can answer the question you asked in your first message…as it relates to you.

Btw I have no doubt opportunities from clubs to research abound at both schools but you have to find them, earn them. They are not simply given.

Also depending on where you want to end up career wise, one school might place better in that area so you might check career outcomes.

To me, to be there two months and looking to leave is not giving your initial decision a fair chance. There’s so much you don’t know about the school that perhaps you need to dig deeper and give it a chance. You chose it for a reason.
