Transfer, or finish my current degree?

You should be able to talk to your academic advisor. He or she should not take it personally that you are thinking about whether or not to transfer.

One issue that concerns me: It is my impression that most universities require you to be a student there for at least two years to get a bachelor’s degree. If this is correct, then if you transfer you might end up spending quite a bit of extra time in university before you get a bachelor’s degree.

One wild idea is to complete your bachelor’s degree where you are, and then think about whether there are any master’s degree programs that you would want to consider. A bachelor’s in animation and a masters in computer science seems like one possibility, although this is more something that I might think about and ask an academic advisor about before deciding whether it makes any sense or not. Of course getting a bachelor’s degree, working for a year or two, and then getting a master’s is also something that is often done. At least when I was getting a master’s I was in my mid 20’s but there were some students there who seemed to be older, and I think that the majority of students probably had some work experience.

To me it sounds like you are close enough to getting your bachelor’s degree that you might want to finish it where you are.
