I am a first semester sophomore at an elite woman's college in the Midwest. All of my aunts on both sides of my family went there, as well as my grandmother on one side, and several of my cousins. Basically it was a tradition which is the main reason I decided to go here- after all, I got into the University of Notre Dame, SLU, Fordham University, Loyola University of Chicago, and Xavier University also. I like my school. I do. But I don't love it. All of my friends love their schools. When I go to my school, it's like visiting a friends house. You like to be there, to see your friends and family, but you clearly don't belong there full time. I get good grades and am very involved on campus. But everytime I go home, I have to literally force myself to get off at the exit. One day I couldn't force myself to go to campus. I drove around town for hours and eventually ended up sitting in the Church and then the library at the school acrossed the street all day. Do you think I should transfer? I like it, but I just don't feel like this is where I'm supposed to be....
