Can you switch grad schools?

Senusret, thank you for not coming right out and calling me a helicopter parent. :-)
But, yes she did check into it and they said she had to start grad school in the fall, which my husband said couldn't be true b/c he started his grad school in Jan (diff. state). So, since you guys have such a wealth of knowledge and experience out there I thought I'd just toss this problem (health insurance) out and see what your thoughts were. With my rotary blades whirrling, I did call the grad school and was told she could be over at the "College of Arts & Sciences" (not her school) as an "undecided" major for a semester. That would keep her health insurance current.

You're welcome.

That's interesting that DH thought that. I know people who started various programs in January, but generally speaking, most schools I'm familiar with require a Fall start.

You could also pray that she didn't get sick for six months, which is what I did when I quit grad school LOL
