Has anybody ever left college before and than went back to a different college?

Has anybody ever left college before and than went back to a different college? If so what where your reasons to go to a different college? I have attended a community college and have left that college. I want to go back to college to get my degree. I want to go to a differnet college because they don't offer the major that I would be intrested in.

Sure, it happens all the time. In fact, many CCs have transfer agreeements with other schools because the number of majors they can offer are limited by their size, budget, etc. Check with the new school to see how many of your credits from your old school will transfer, and also what their admissions requirements are.





I transferred out of a CC because I knew I wanted a Bachelor's degree so I could go on to grad school. I think it's fairly common since CCs are so much cheaper than 4-year colleges.
Reply:A friend of mine went to Berkeley (yeah I know, I was like REALLY?), but then decided it was not really his "dream school" when he got there. He didn't like the environment and some of the people I guess, so he withdrew and attended community college and plans on transferring to a different UC. So whatever your reason is, just be sure, and besides it's your life and your decision, therefore you should do what you feel is best for you...even if it's not conventional, but people do leave colleges for different ones all the time...as demonstrated by the amount of responses you have :) G'luck.
Reply:I went to community college for a year, went to Miami University for a semester, then went back to community for a semester and got my associate's degree. I'm going to Malone College in the fall. Miami just wasn't the place for me. I should be at a small school where people care, and where there is more to do than drink. I can't stay at community because they don't have the major I want either.
Reply:I went to community college one year after completing high school. I never obtained an Associate Degree because I started a job that required me to work rotating shifts.





Seven years later I transferred the credits earned at the community college to a four year program and completed my Bachelor of Science degree over six years as a part-time student.





20 years later I entered a Master of Science part-time program that took two years to complete. I graduated this past May.





Just do it!
