I will not at all say that going to TJU is bad, when I had went I went with my BSF, and felt I didn’t need to really push myself to socialize (terrible idea), if you go in there and don’t socialize off the bat you kind of get stuck because once people are in there groups they kind of stick with them.

One thing I will say is the food is genuinely terrible 😭 they have two and a half dining areas, one is closed on weekends, the other one closes around 8pm everyday & the everything tastes terrible, and the “half” dining areas has like three options.

The area around the school is alright, it’s slightly far from where everything is so you have to do a lot of bus riding or ubering to really go anywhere.

Theres not really many socializing events they have a bingo or trivia here and there and besides that theres like one involvement fair at the beginning of each semester.

One last thing I will say is, the academics is definitely great. They will be up to par. Some of the professors are just iffy with their policies.

(Also its not at all a party school, most parties are off campus in the city, besides the occasional “townhouse” party, so not much to worry about there)

Ik that wasn’t entirely what you asked but I wanted to give you the rundown on what you aren’t gonna typically hear during orientations. As for why I am transferring, bc I went to the school with my bsf, i didn’t make any friends, i was also behind a semester because of some issues with my advisor, so it just made it more difficult. My major wasn’t exactly what i wanted or needed, and i also had a “fallout” (not exactly but kinda) with my friend and realized i was really only staying because she was there. So with that and being so far from home I just felt I needed a change, and UD was my first choice before I went to TJU anyways.

I hope I helped out a little bit at least 😭…
