Transer Scholarships - Giving up a full-ride for a school that has my major.

<p>"'Somehow I overlooked this. 23 credits?? as an incoming freshmen? This is a recipe for hating school!</p>

<p>If you can drop any without penalties, then do so. If not, finish them and take like 15 credits next semester (at most)!!! '</p>

<p>I agree. Of course, you hate college!"</p>

<p>Unfortunately, it’s too late to drop classes (without them appearing on one’s transcript).
I’ll make it through the classes; I can manage. </p>

<p>It’s not the classes really that I hate, honestly.
It’s the college; it’s the people here; it’s the environment; it’s the horrible selection of activities, clubs and organizations (I’ve tried many; most of them are poorly run/organized and just don’t have dedicated, skilled/talented, knowledgeable members).
Unfortunately, I dislike it pretty much all. </p>

<p>My classes aren’t <em>horrible</em>.
Why mathematics and physics?
I thought that these were what I wanted to do; I was interested.
However, that interest was not a passion; it was solely an interest.
I began talking to professors, and, in particular, upperclassmen and grad students studying physics (I joined the Society of Physics Students), and I realized that this is definitely something I don’t want to do for the rest of my life.
Yes, I am curious and interested in the subject, but I’m just not passionate about it. </p>

<p>I’m passionate about film and music. I live for these things. </p>

<p>Again, the problem is, not only do I dislike this school–if that were it, I could probably handle it for four years–but that film (or film studies) is not offered.
Furthermore, the music program is not very good (it’s not <em>bad</em>, per se; it’s just very, very mediocre). And on top of that, they don’t even offer a degree in music composition, as many other schools do. </p>

<p>It’s a mixture of all of this.
Yes, next semester I will lighten my course load, but I don’t dislike, even hate, it here because of my workload–I just <em>don’t</em> belong here. At all.</p>
