Should I graduate this year with a degree in HTM or transfer schools and get a business degree?

So the story is that I was attending Umass where I was on the soccer team, and going into my senior year while getting a degree in Hospitality Tourism Management (HTM). I originally wanted to major in Management or Finance, but since the business school there wouldn’t let me in even with a 3.5 GPA and the fact that I already was a junior I settled on majoring in HTM and right now I’m 9 classes away from graduating on time this year. Anyway, soccer sort of fell through with the coaches this year, and I have the opportunity to transfer into Rutgers at the last minute. I’ve already got accepted into the business school where I can major in either Management or Finance and get a degree in business. The thing is I would have to go to school an extra year. So my situation is do I go back to Umass where all my friends are, it’s a fun school, and graduate on time with an HTM degree or do I go to Rutgers and get a business degree, but live at home and have to go to school for an extra year.

RUtgers?? My friend goes there. She’s take up Liberal Arts. Its not really a question of shoudl you transfer to the answer.. you should be asking yourself the question what do you want to be? Try answering these questions:

-Do you like HTM?

-If Rutgers had offered you before the same package with Umass, which would you have choosen?

-Are you rich? Can you afford to spend another year at school?

-What is your intended career path?

Nobody can really answer these questions for you. It’s not a simple yes or no question. There are a lot of factors to be considered and details you really can’t say it all in these forums. Hope this will clarify things for you. You’re probably smart enough to understand and interpret the answers to your questions. And place importance on things that a stranger may overlook… Luck!!
