What Being a Transfer Student Feels Like

[@dananguyen4944]

omg I transferred to USC from a CC as well! I seriously felt like that my whole first semester there! thank you for sharing this! super accurate and relatable :))

[@danielapolo7346]

How is it going now?

[@slowheat4651]

As a transfer student who did 3 years at CC this painfully relates to my experience at university.

[@Fuzzyjar]

once you transfer do they keep your credits and do you still remain a junior in university...??

[@CheyenneTrac]

all universities have different transfer credit guidelines, but for the most part in my experience, I've been taking courses that I know will transfer for credit to my university!

[@epicwhat001]

This is specially true in a CS major. Not many know that most freshman cs majors already know how to code prior to taking their first class. I mean you can catch up if u don’t have prior experience but it can be intimidating if your classmates are a mile ahead.

[@tha_oz]

FACTS. I spent 3 years at CC, when I get to ucsd there’s gonna be freshman who already interned at Facebook lmaooo

[@k_bee999]

I’m transferring this fall and I’m so excited! Saved lots of money and get to have an awesome experience in both colleges I’ve attended till now and in the future! You do what you know is right for you and your education and future!! Good luck everyone 🎉

[@WantBadtime]

How's it going so far?

[@ArturoHernandezjr]

When I transferred to a CSU, all I said was, "This is the same damn thing they teach at the JC, but for 4 times the price."

This happened to me transferring from a City College to a Prestigious University ....A world of a difference!!!!! I went from being surrounded by unmotivated-bored students hanging out in class to super-prodigies already working on projects at the industry level

[@Bronte866]

So cool.

[@sexy13ITCH0000]

Thats one thing i noticed, the motivation/attitude levels are worlds apart

[@joannerenigen430]

I’m scared to transfer now

[@CheyenneTrac]

I can reassure you that transferring isn't a horrible thing because from my experience it was the BEST decision I've ever made. There are struggles such as feeling the imposter syndrome but ultimately it's really about your mindset and how you respond to it! If I could leave you with something, I want you to know that challenges are inevitable but being defeated is optional. :) The struggle is part of the process and it makes us more knowledgeable and experienced dealing with the unknowns that life throws at us.

Second year into my small town college and It’s been so hard to connect with anyone. I think the problem is my school also I’m the only Asian in my classes. It’s starting to dwell on me. I’m thinking of transferring somewhere more diverse in culture. I grew up in the city before and I never had trouble making friends

[@ewruuweeddd7528]

any update from you? I am thinking of transfer as well

[@MorganPlatenberg]

love this thanks❤

[@Brainysaxophonist]

ok, so this is definitely relatable but at my cc, i remember seeing that kid that knows everything on the first day and after getting over my initial admiration (and jealousy) i started studying what he did and now i became that kid and it’s surprising to me how quickly you lose that imposter syndrome when you can become THAT kid

[@MarBeanTrees]

Lmao I’m transferring to a “top 10” uni from community college. Wish me luck with that imposter syndrome ToT and good luck to everyone else

[@novaparks319]

Update? And btw is it vb?

Yeah I need an update. I bet you’re doing well.

Hahahaha. Quadratic Formula is like the basics of algebra. It’s a must learn for the STEM strand. It doesn’t take much effort to learn it anyway. 😅

[@Princessm1320]

This is why I’m so glad I go to a satellite campus. Look up the universities at shady grove to learn more. More states should have these if they don’t already

[@Wu-myth]

Stop scaring me...I THOUGHT I DID THE RIGHT THING!!!!!

[@Crimsonshadow1701]

You did! You saved money and got in some experience in college. You are at the right place for YOU, don't ever compare yourself to others. And relish in the fact that you saved thousands of dollars ;-)

That quadratic formula, in indian we learn in 9th standard

[@sylviacutie3649]

So I transferred in high school, I transferred in college, and now I plan to transfer in law school. I am a social person so I just talked to people and joined extracurriculars and sports teams and started making friends. Tbh transferring is scary, but you have your goals and so just work hard to accomplish those, write down deadlines and dates for assignments and just keep in mind what you are working towards. It's worth it at the end 😅😂

[@gloriagonzalez1070]

Wow that's alot, I'm trying to be like that🤞🏻 honestly I wanna join in sports and clubs and be social and I wanna go to law school. But I feel like I'm too stupid 😭

How about you ask them how they did it... Or talk to an advisor so you can do it. That's why you're there. Anything they can do you can do. Wtf. You are not on a different planet. They literally are in the same school as you. Tells you something about you.

Girl if you don’t know the quadratic formula by junior year idk what to say. We literally have to take 4+ calculus courses you have no excuse.
