In addition to study abroad you might be able to do a semester in DC or something through either Auburn or Alabama. Apply to the honors colleges/programs, and if you work hard you will be a big fish there. As other said, go to grad school or get a job in NY or Boston or somewhere else after you finish your undergrad.
Those are big enough schools you will find your people and and you can make your time there great – just have to have a positive attitude. It is what it is.
Didn’t Tim Cook go to Auburn? He seems to have done pretty well. . .
