SnappleSpice, let me reassure you that no employer will care that you transferred from a private university to a state university. Many, many, many students do the same, for any number of reasons - from fit to pricetag to changing interests. I daresay you’re not alone among students in realizing that their “dream” school is really a financial nightmare.

To be brutally frank, you will have $100,000 in debt for a liberal studies associate’s degree that could have been earned at a community college for a tiny fraction of the cost.

I know you’re in love with NYU, but you will hate the bill when it starts coming due - and that will be much, much sooner than you think.
