hi i go to a shitty university. it isn't nationally ranked or anything and u know? it's just not great. not even average. i'm a journalism major. is it worth transferring for your senior year of college? how much does where you go matter on resumes and shit? because i feel like a huge loser. and i don't even know how to get an internship. i'm going to be a junior right now though.

Hey! I have a rather long answer for you, as knowing whether to transfer or not is a hard decision to make. But I also have a kind of quick summary of the main things to consider at the end my answer.

First of all, you’re not a loser for going to below-average university. There are so many factors that go into where everyone ends up for college. Many people didn’t have the chance to attend high quality high schools, aren’t in a good enough place with their mental health to perform well in school or on college applications, or lack resources to be involved in the kinds of extracurriculars that look good on college applications. People might not get the scholarships they need to go to better universities. Also, so many qualified people get their applications rejected from schools they would have thrived at all the time. So many people appIy to most colleges that who gets in and who doesn’t can often just come down to almost chance. I don’t know the reasons that you didn’t go to a different school, but I’m sure there were good ones. Also, academic success is not all the measure of a person’s worth!

Also. Where you go to college does not matter to most employers. All they care about is that you got a degree some *somewhere*. The only two exceptions to this are that employers tend to not want to hire people that went to for-profit colleges or exclusively online colleges. If you’re attending a for-profit college, transferring would almost definitely be worth it because they’re most likely charging you way too much money for an education that will be worth less than an education you could get for cheaper elsewhere. If you’re attending an exclusively online university, I would also consider transferring.

If your college isn’t for profit or an online university, I think it’s a harder decision to make. If you’re wanting to transfer purely because you’re worried your college will hurt your future employment opportunities, it almost definitely will not and I would just stick out these last two years. However, it sounds like you’re pretty unhappy there and might be considering transferring to get a better education for your own sake or to enjoy your college experience more.

Transferring senior year can be hard. Actually getting accepted as a transfer student to a better school than the one you’re currently attending should actually be fairly easy. As long as you have performed well in college, acceptance rates for transfer students are much higher. I think the biggest difficulty is actually that many colleges will not accept all of your credits from your old university. This might mean that you will have to take five instead of four years to graduate. If you rely on federal funding, you can’t get federal funding to pay for a 5th year of college, and most colleges stop offering aid after four years as well. If money is not an issue for you, great! If you’re unhappy, I would say transfer. However, even if money is an issue (as it is for most people trying to pay for college) there are ways to avoid this. I would really research the colleges you are thinking of transferring to because you can find colleges that have high rates of students who transfer to them & that are much more accepting of transfer credits. As long as you make sure and talk to people at your new college specifically about a four-year plan to graduate to insure that will be possible, you should be able to find places that you still graduate in four years. (And make sure to speak to people directly about this, or even better, get confirmation about which credits of yours they will accept via email. Do not rely solely on what their website etc. says because I know people who have run into problems with websites being misleading/their school not living up to what they say on the website.)

Another thing is that it can be hard socially to transfer as a senior. This isn’t to say that you won’t make friends (especially as most schools have an orientation for transfer students or include you in the orientation for freshmen, where you can meet people.) But if you have a solid friend group right now, this is something to consider.

Another thing to consider is taking a leave from your college if you are in the position to do so. (Just make sure that you won’t be penalized financially - I don’t know what the rules about when you can take a leave are for your college.) This way, you can apply to transfer elsewhere without having to worry about school on top of that, and you can spend two years instead of one at a university that is a better fit for you! Just keep in mind that transfer credits may still be a problem even if you’ve only complete two years of college, and so you may still want to be strategic about that when deciding where to apply to transfer.

In sum: If you attend a for-profit or exclusively online college, transferring is almost definitely your best option. If you don’t attend colleges like this & are merely worried that your college will affect your employment in the future, you most likely don’t need to transfer! If you’re really unhappy at your college and that’s why you want to transfer, it may be worth it, but you should insure that it’s a financially feasible option. If it’s not financially feasible, that sucks, but even though two years seems like forever I promise it’s really only a small part of your life & that you will get to do bigger & better things after college! If it is financially feasible, I would sit down and actually make a list of pros and cons of transferring just to insure that you’re making the right choice for yourself! It might also help to talk this over with an adult or a friend who knows you well and get their advice about the situation.

Also, about getting internships. It’s hard and overwhelming to try and get internships! But I have some advice. One thing is that most colleges have someone you can talk to that can give you guidance. I would look into that, as that could be a really helpful resource. However, if your school doesn’t have anyone like that, I have some basic advice.

I get really overwhelmed when applying for things, and that was something I had to overcome when applying for internships last year. To help with that, I did a few things. One, I set a small goal for myself, and said that I would only apply for three internships. (If you can apply for more, it would be good to because it raises your chances of getting one. Three is a very small goal, five is a reasonable one, more than five is great but not totally necessary. You know yourself best. Set a goal that is realistic for you and lowers your anxiety.) Next, I would schedule set times to look for/apply for internships. Then, it isn’t always this looming thing you have to do. If you start working on it early, do it in small chunks, and let yourself take frequent breaks, it’s so much better. I would actually write down a schedule once it gets to be around internship season. You can start over December break because some internships are already listed then and you don’t have school as well. But keep in mind that a lot of stuff gets posted around March or even later as well.

Since I was only applying for three internships, I made sure that the ones I did apply for were really good fits for my skills and experience, so I would make sure to hunt around a bit more if you apply to less like me.

Then - actually finding internships. There are a few ways to narrow down the vast amounts of internships you can find on the web. One easy thing to do is if you know which city or a few cities you would like to be in during the summer, you can search “journalism internship Chicago” or wherever and it will get you a lot less results than just wading through the millions of results you get for “journalism internship.” Also, if there’s an organization or a newspaper you really like, you can look on their specific web pages to see if they offer internships. (Again, look around December and again in March because they may not have anything posted now.) Also, if you have any teachers you like, they can be a GREAT resource for finding internships. I really recommend going into their office hours and just saying, “Hey, I really want a journalism internship this summer. Do you know about any you’d recommend me looking into?” Especially since you will most likely need to ask one or two of them for a recommendation letter anyway.

Also, don’t feel the need to limit yourself to a specifically journalism internship. You might find one that still focuses on writing skills, just in a slightly different way, etc. Employers don’t care if you have the *exact* experience. Any internship, really, will show that you have skills and that someone wanted to hire you!

A *lot* of people don’t get internships until the summer after junior year of college. And many people don’t get internships in college at all! They are great opportunities and you should definitely apply, but if you don’t end up getting any next summer, it really won’t be a huge deal. I have a friend who worked at Starbucks during the summers between college, and she’s doing something more related to her major now that she’s graduated!

Best of luck deciding what is best for you to do!Sophie

19, 33, 34, 11, 12, 2, and 45!!!!

ah! these are really good questions!

19. they’re a leo and i’m a scorpio so i guess technically no but i secretly have some really meaningful relationships with fire signs so i’m not too worried bout that!

33. the cutest thing she’s ever said to me? this is so hard because she’s literally always saying cute things. today she told me that she missed me even though i saw her last night and i hadn’t even left town yet! but the cutest thing she’s ever said to me is when she outlined how she’s basically had a crush on me for years! i’m still astounded.

34. i dream about carmen all the time! omg like literally three times a week! last night i dreamt that we were standing outside my house talking. the first dream i had about her was wild. in it she reached into my chest and pulled my heart out. and her nails looked amazing!

11. one word that describes carmen is loyal.

12. she has a cat named tom and a dog named mijo. both are adorable and i don’t even like cats that much.

2. she’s right handed.

45. she lives like a few miles from me but i’m going to Los Angeles right now (typing this post in the back of a car that i’ve been in for 11 hours now) so we’ll be on opposite ends of california for a couple weeks!

ah! this was fun i can go on and on!
