DubaiSis it is a family issue, but also an issue of commitment. I have a potential externship as well as a job that I have to see through to the end. Also, I will have my Associate's degree when I transfer by sticking this year out. Since I'm so into OOS schools it'll make transferring in as a junior a lot easier. I agree with you though, I do need to pick my top 5 soon. I plan on applying by the end of the fall semester, so I should have time to use my resources for financial aid thoroughly before I make the switch. Thanks for replying! Your school seems fun.
