so let's talk about what my life would be like if in a year, I were at U of M. I transfer senior year and then go to their grad program for social work. I don't know if it's feasible when it comes to transferring credits and whatnot, but we shall see. Maybe it could actually happen. It'd look really good if I went to Michigan. I love the town, the campus is big but it's just a challenge I can tackle and win. And the amount of love I'd be surrounded with there makes my heart smile just thinking about it.
I definitely have a home at GVSU. I for sure feel the "Grand Valley Family" thing, and Spotlight and ASA are more than worth all of the time and energy and tears. I have some very good friends there.
But should I really stay someplace where I am so comfortable? Is that what life is about? I know I can easily graduate from GVSU with a degree in psychology - but I don't know how easy it would be at Michigan. And getting to know a whole new town sounds reallllly nice right about now.
What would happen? Would I still be close with those on the west coast? Would the grass be as green in Ann Arbor as I'm thinking it would be? Could I actually get into LSA and do all of their pre-reqs stuff and still "finish in four"? Should I even focus on the "finish in four" aspect ?
I'm scared, and need guidance. Hopefully I can talk to an academic advisor soon - both at GV and UMich. Let's see where I could go with what I have right now. Then we'll deal with all of the scary questions.
I'd really love to go, though. I'm too content here.
