thinking about transferring colleges?

I am thinking about transferring colleges after this year. I currently go to a small Christian school with a Mass Communications/Public Relations major. I was considering transferring to a bigger school and going with a Journalism major (which is the one I really wanted, but the school I'm currently at doesn't offer it).

I'm feeling a little torn about the idea, mainly because of the friends I have made. When it comes to the future, I think changing schools is the better thing to do. I have been going back and forth on it for quite a while, and just when I thought transferring seemed like the better thing to do, I'm starting to go the other direction.

What's the better move to make?

    If journalism is really your passion, then it's probably better to transfer to a school that offers that as a major. You will surely make friends at a new school, too; since you're considering this, you must be in your first 2 years of college. You'll have plenty of opportunities to make great friends at your new college! Also, remember that you're there for an education first, socializing second. It sounds to me like the social aspect may be your biggest reason against transferring.
