At first blush I thought this whole thread was terrible, but I am given to thinking about this more logically. A lot of students who start at BIG U end up dropping out or transferring to MEDIUM or SMALL U because they just aren't well suited to the style of the huge classes, huge dorms, massive anonymity, etc. I think the hugely competitive recruitment that doesn't work out well is possibly indicative of this personality style.

And I think most of us would agree that size of college is not indicative of future success. So if you're going to transfer, you're probably better off doing it right away instead of deciding you need the more personal touch after a year or two when you'd lose a bunch of hours and have to virtually start over.

Are there ever situations where, let me pick 2 schools as examples where this could theoretically work, girl goes through recruitment at Florida State but it doesn't work out, so she drops out and immediately transfers to Florida International, which has recruitment nearly a month later. Could she theoretically transfer, start school and go through recruitment 1 month later? Please don't read this as me thinking it's a good idea; I'm just wondering if it ever does happen, and if there are rules precluding it.
