| May 22 at 15:13 | comment | added | anon_b | It's a belief with school 2. I've gotten more things in writing from them about it and have talked to multiple students and advisors since finding everything out about school 1. The biggest thing about transferring is that I'm on a limited fellowship and don't want to be wasting more time and money at school 1 than I have to while in a program that isn't covering all of the things I want/was told I would get out of my degree. | |

| May 22 at 14:53 | comment | added | Cameron Williams | Have you talked to your advisor about all of these things already? | |
