<p>Absolutely!
The major academic reason is that I’ve decided to pursue a Finance degree and possibly a business one with it, and my state school is nationally recognized for some of its business programs.</p>
<p>On the side of more personal reasons, I’ve realized that when choosing schools, I underestimated the importance of finding people who had the same or very similar beliefs as me, and Vandy is definitely lacking. That’s not necessarily a bad thing for every student, but after getting here I realized not only how alone I seemed (not in a depressed way, just my attempts at finding like-minded people spiritually were fruitless. Still trying though, just in case).</p>
<p>And, of course, being 6 hours from home is proving to be more troublesome than I’d anticipated. Part homesickness, part practicality.</p>
