Thats fine Glen. But ordinarily, when you have circumstances beyond your control, taking a gap year and deferring is the process, which means you dont have to transfer and reapply. Fordham (and most private colleges) are not very friendly to community college credits, btw. Because so many try to game the system and get a Fordham degree for half the price. State universities are often required by state law to take them, but not private schools.

Dont expect Fordham to take many of your community college credits. I would run your schedule by them and see what they say, and get it in writing.

I understand financial pressure. You are not alone, as thousands of kids face this problem, particularly at expensive schools.

Do you qualify for an ROTC scholarship and get the Army to pay for it? Start that process now. Not all ROTC participants are on scholarship.
