College is not bad

Reality is

You’ve got a tough issue. Although college is not about getting an attractive woman, it should be someplace you feel comfortable, where you make friends and where you can trust the people around you.

Stop trying to convince your dad the college is bad – it’s actually not a bad school Instead, explain to your Dad that, although he may not know it, you had a rough time in high school making friends and had hoped to find yourself when you got to college. Explain that you are not happy in this school, which makes it very difficult for you to make friends and that you really would like to go someplace else.

Have a back up – a community college in your neighborhood, or another university near where you go now.

Do the research on other colleges you want to transfer to. Put your accounting mind to the task. Figure out every expense and compare it to where you are currently.

Then explain that the new suggested colleges have more courses you could take and that you could even become an actuary (pays really well) if you transferred. YOur old school probably doesn’t prepare you to take the actuarial exams that are given somewhere (not in college).

You could mention that you are a minority, but I wouldn’t stress it.

you should have applied to more colleges and John and Wales university is an easy school to get into but its know more for its prestigous as a chef school so its easy to see why your being called that. why don’t you just transfer. just say that your not feeling it and if you transfer to a state college it would be cheaper and to a school thats more renowend for its accounting progrrams
