I’m really on edge about transferring and need some advice. I’ve been here for a year and a half and feel that the school is too big, not very community oriented, and too fast paced for me. I’ve become super depressed being here but I’m not sure how much is the school and how much is me. However, I would be leaving behind the opportunities I’ve had and the few friends I made and starting over. Recently when I have a good day or see Bay State, I start to question if I truly want to transfer, also maybe because the weather has improved. Has anyone transferred and had it go well?

I currently go to a large city school in the northeast and ever since I’ve gotten here I feel like the life has been sucked out of me. I hate how big it is, how cold the culture is, and how hard it’s been to make friends because I don’t feel like I belong here. I have tried really hard to like it but I don’t. However, I’m worried that instead of the depression being caused by being here, it’s actually just something that won’t go away and I’ll take to my next school. Has anyone been in a similar situation and has advice? I do think I don’t align with the school and am really miserable but I’m worried I’ll just be worse off elsewhere.
