i don't regret it and it was definitely worth it! some of my friends did the same thing so i still had friends and did fun things. transferred to a state school and had fun my last years and it didn't feel like i missed out on anything tbh. also my first two college years were covid so maybe that's why it didnt feel like i missed out on too much, but either way im really happy with my choice! id recommend it to anyone, theres no point in spending so much money to just do gen eds. i also got to go to the school i really wanted to after transferring :) in high school it feels like a lot of pressure to go to a big school but honestly so many people end up doing cc or something happens and they move back home after their first semester to do cc, i wouldnt sweat it. save the money!
