So yes I obviously made a mistake by coming here, but I had several reasons for coming in the first place.
1) Major
2) Football
3) Money
4) Heard it was a good school as well
5) An area I thought I would like
It isnt until you look deeper and investigate a little, and then other things happening as well, that you determine how the situation is, and if you want to remain there.

All I can say is that the U of MN has had it share of problems--low graduation rates, rapid changes in leadership, athletic scandals, and unjustified rising tuitions causing folx to jump ship. So A&T isn't alone in this. I suggest you do a thorough investigation of new schools before transferring. You might find the same problems under the surface.
