In this episode, Natalie talks about her experience transferring and some things to consider when transferring. Transferring universities can be a really great way to put yourself in an environment where you can be successful but you should consider the timeline of withdrawing and applying to a new school, whether or not your GPA is high enough to transfer, how it affects your graduation timeline and your financial aid. Transferring or taking time off in college can be so helpful and you shouldn't let the fear of transferring to a smaller university keep you from putting yourself in a more supportive environment!Contact: callherdoctor@gmail.comCheck out Madysen's blog at theMJdiaries.com and Natalie's blog at sheengineered.com!
