Are you a member of Phi Theta Kappa? If not, join, it will certainly help you. Also, speak to counselors/professors at your school about transferring, they should be able to help you.

If you need any more advice, feel free to email me.

One last note. Spell Check. “Dilemma” It might seem picky, but entrance counselors will weed out applications with spelling errors in the personal statement or essay. In addition, I think you mean to say that you have no “extracurriculars.” I would still apply, but make sure they know you are supporting yourself and going to school full time. That goes a long way.

Final note. Contact the schools BEFORE you apply to see if you can speak to one of the Deans or Associate Deans for admissions to the programs you are interested in, so that you may ask them some questions about your chances, and tell them about your circumstances. I think the best way to ask would be a formal letter. Write it carefully and edit it thoroughly.

You need to be more realistic about your choice of school and career. Unfortunately, it appears you’ve wasted two years. I recommend you apply to a Cal State School and finish a B.A. degree in something with better job prospects than “Art History”. Even then, you might hope for a position as Night Shift Manager at Walmart – but you’ll have a lot of competition. Sorry to break it to you – but that’s reality. You should have been better advised…

Incidentally, I suggest you take at least a couple of courses in remedial English grammar and composition, or even the Walmart job will be out of reach.
