Given that it is nearly impossible to get financial aid as an international transfer student, given that transferring might add 2 years to your undergraduate years (assuming a Bachelor’s degree is 3 years in your home country), and all to get a degree which would put you in a worse position in the job market than an engineering degree, it might be in your best interest to stay at home. Maybe your home university has an exchange agreement with an American university, or maybe you can audit courses in other subjects. Heck, even taking an entire year off just to attend lectures in other subjects might be faster and cheaper than pursuing a liberal arts degree in the US.
