<p>The first two years of my college career were spent at Centenary College of Louisiana, a small private institution with only 900 students. The academics were satisfying but towards the end of my second year I became really unhappy in the environment. I did not like the size of the institution, the horrible drop out rate, or the cost. I made my decision to transfer very spur of the moment which limited my options. </p>
<p>As a result I decided to spend a semester close to home and catch up on credits that I hadn’t needed before, but needed now because of the public university curriculum. After being admitted to ULM I did further research into other colleges. I found the LSU offers more of what I am interested than ULM. I will be a junior in the fall and I am considering transferring again in the spring. I am afraid that my transferring will make me appear flaky and not look good when I apply to graduate school. Also, I cannot decide whether I should just get through school and finish right on time, or transfer and possibly be a semester behind. However, transferring again my give me more opportunities because it is a larger university with a somewhat better reputation.</p>
