woooah

if you want to transfer out you better start getting in high gear now. the majority of schools do not accept mid-year transfer…for the heck of it i checked the two schools that you listed, wesleyan and brown, and both do not accept mid year transfer…so if you want out you will have to get your application together in the next couple of weeks or wait until next year…it is not “too late”, you have until march 1st or 15th usually depending on the school, you really need to try and be more on top of things, information like this isnt exactly hidden in a security vault or anything

it sounds like you are unsure if you want to transfer…if this is the case i would wait until next year and you are sure about your decision…transferring can be a socially stressful process in terms of trying to meet new people and finding your niche, if you are unsure and you are feeling more comfortable than you did last semester i would recommend really making sure that you are giving columbia a chance, its a fantastic school with fantastic people, and seeing where you are this time next year
