Should I still try graduating at umich after dropping out so many times?

College Life

I dropped out of my university (Umich) 3 times already, due to trauma I went through on campus my freshmen year.
The second time I didn’t make it through the semester, and the third time I left after 2 weeks (it was still the add-drop period so there’s no record of it). I just couldn’t handle being there.
I am senior standing-the majority of my credits are from another university, but I would still like to graduate at umich. I am technically in good standing, but I feel embarrassed for having left so many times and I’m surprised the school still lets me back in.

Am I stupid for all of this? Should I still try to graduate there? I’m back at the school I transferred my credits to umich from, a place I loved being at but now I"m just miserable that I’m here instead of facing umich and finishing strong :confused:

There is a rule of thumb that says, “past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior.” The goal of any education is to actually finish it successfully. If you are studying somewhere that has been working for you and you can get the degree finished there without the symptoms that lead you to quit umich three times, why would you put yourself through that again? Be proud that you found someplace where you can successfully complete your degree, don’t second guess it, and don’t look back.
