So, I need advice. Last year I was accepted to the college that was my “dream” school. It is a upper first tier LAC I thought I would love it. Overall, its “okay” with some problems.

-Way higher percentage of students than I thought drink and party on weekends. Didn’t really expect that from such a high ranked college. (I am non-dirnker/non-partier)

-Much harder to find friends that like the sort of “intellectual” fun that I enjoy than I expected. This + drinking makes me feel isolated.

-Just feels like I am not getting my moneys worth for the amount of $ my parents/ I are outlaying.


The sort of “intellectual discussions” I thought would be present just aren’t here in the way I thought they would be


-Adminstration at college is incompent/ refuses to help with problems.


While I thought I would feel happy, I just keeping wishing for the breaks.


I can’t transfer to any equal/ better college due to money issues.

I could transfer to a lower ranked college near where I live and go to the honors college there where all of my high school friends go.

I do enjoy my classes, but it just feels like my familiy’s money is going to waste. I think I may have made a bad choice? Advice?
