It really sounds like there’s a lot more to this story than what we’re hearing. Right now, going through the transfer process “anyway” is a losing strategy that’s only going to backfire on you, I promise! You mentioned depression. Before doing anything rash or self-destructive, please talk to a mental health professional. I think advising how to transfer against your parents wishes (since they’re paying for college) would be irresponsible. Transferring is just not a panacea.
