Two semesters (almost) down
As long as things continue as they are, I think I'll do fine this semester. That means I have one more semester at my current school to go, and then I transfer out.
It's a weird process. No one from my old college has gone to the new one before; I'm going to have to dig up a bunch of syllabuses from my old college, some of which are for classes that might not exist anymore. Good times. (Even if I had saved them - which I probably didn't - I've moved several times since then. They would've been long since lost.)
This would be so much easier if I could just go there. Unfortunately, that's not really an option. I'll just have to find what I can on my own, then start e-mailing department heads and hope for the best.
So many of my courses are irrelevant to my current major, though. I might not have enough relevant courses to make transferring worthwhile. I really need to sit down with the dean of the program I'm transferring into and talk to him, see what the curriculum will look like and whether or not I can skip some of the "core" courses (composition and whatnot) with the older ones. That's probably my best bet.
(Three or four semesters of only Engineering/Computer Science classes will probably wreak havoc on my GPA, but I've been okay so far. I'll have to keep at it and make sure I devote enough time to studying.)
