Here are some troubling conditions to look for this spring, and next year as a freshman in college. The roots of this dejection can be varied. Sometimes it is based on the realization that you will soon be leaving ConVal and friends who have come to mean a great deal to you. In other instances. The Urge to Transfer.
Many freshmen find themselves disappointed.
Often, their first reaction to disappointment is to consider transferring. For most disappointed freshmen, the problem does not lie with the college but with the nature of freshman year. It's not easy being among the newest, youngest, and least-experienced members of an old institution, especially when only a few months earlier, you were among the oldest, most experienced, most esteemed, and most powerful. As a freshman, you're back at the bottom of the heap. You've got to start all mover making friends, establishing your credibility on the academic and extracurricular fronts, plowing through required courses to reach those enticing electives, earning points to move into preferred dormitory rooms.
