When I was a freshman I had so many opportunities to meet new people, go to parties, and have what people would describe as a typical college experience. It also helped that I went to an out of state private university which was far away from home. Then after my sophomore year things happened. Money issues came in, parents decided that they could not afford to send me to that college anymore, and on the fall of 2012 I decided to transfer to a state school.
Now on paper the state school is great. Really good football team, lots of students, lots of hot girls, and everything that my past college didn't have.
But I just find that there is something lacking. Maybe it is because I am a transfer student but even then I notice that Upperclassmen (juniors and seniors) are usually less receptive to meeting new people or making friends.
Academically I am doing great, it is much easier here than the last university I went to and I have managed to keep a good GPA but the social life has vanished for me.
I feel like I came here too late to relate to other upperclassmen that knew each other as freshman and the freshman who are more outgoing when you first meet them become more cliquish as the semester goes on.
The good grades have kept me somewhat happy but the lack of a social life has just killed me.
