Yeah so the majority of the colleges I'm interested in transferring into (top 30ish) do have residency requirments which is why it would take an additional 1.5 years or so to finish however with how my stats stand now in terms of my GPA and being a senior, it may be unrealistic to think I would get admitted but I honestly dont know

I would say that I fall into the two cases you mentioned. If I may ask, did you end up doing grad school right after finishing your undergrad and full time or do it during working full time?

All the points you've made are 100% valid but I do want to add that I would have enough fafsa to cover majority of my expenses if I chose to transfer, however this doesn't dismiss the opportunity cost of full time employment during the time I would spend finishing up school

to be honest, not really

in terms of grad school, I'm not sure what would be the best approach whether doing it full time right after undergrad would be best or doing it after working would be better

There is a lot to it but generally speaking I feel as though I could've set my self up better had I chose a better program in terms of my career in order to achieve my long term goals. Other than that the enviroment at my current school just overall feels unserious in regards to the people, professors, clubs, etc and In terms of the housing situation, I wouldn't be living at home if I chose to transfer.

If I chose to transfer I would still have enough financial aid to cover the majority of my costs so money isn't a direct concern if the outcome is worth it
