Okay, I am trying to transfer from Johnson and Wales to NC State. I need a Claculus credit (which JWU doesn't even offer so I had to take it at CPCC which I failed for reasons that are NOT my fault, and i missed the mark by .22%)my dad says that If I don't get into NC state (wich I can't right now) I would have to go back to Johnson and wales, BUT I CAN"TWeve had this argument all year, he keeps asking me why I don't want to go back to johnson and wales, well, here are the reasons Ive told himIts not a "Real" School, They have trimesters instead of semesters. State would be cheaper even with housing, I hate the 40min commute everyday, Everyone thinks im a chef(and they fucking advertise on tv, and they only advertise the chef side so everyone thinks if i go there i'm automatticly a chef)But more importantly, here are the real reasons I'm about to let loose on him if it turns out i did fail Calculus and the onlyway to get into state is to try again next year. 1.There are no hot girls at my school, none, all fat and black girls(No Offense) I'm not prince charming but I would at least like to meet a moderatly attractive girl. 2. I did'nt do anything in HS and I want a chance to do this in college but JWU dosn't do anything, they don't even have dances, and the few things they do have are impossble for a communter to find out. 3.I HATE being called a Chef. 4.They have a business dresscode, I WANT TO GO TO CLASS IN MY JEANS DAMN IT 5.Part of me wants to take a year off beacuse I'm younger then everybody and they all think i graduated HS early, I just want to be normal damn it, I want to do normal things, I want to go to a normal school, I want to go to a school that isn't one cramped building in downtown Charlotte, I don't' want a job placement center to stick me in Bank of America one fo the most evil companies on earth and the biggest reason is if I fail calculus and have to take it again (The summer class is already filled) it wont matter, if I go to JWU for a 3rd year i won't be able to transfer, ill have to go for a 4th year and now I have a barley accredited degree working for some shit hole in BOA and ill be called a chef for the rest of my life. and Ill regret everyday knowing I never experienced anything that a NORMAL college kid should experienceGoing here is the biggest mistake ive ever made in my entier life, if I don't get into state My life is ruined.

you are an adult. tell that to your dad and tell him that as your daughter he should support and love you. i commuted my freshmen year at my school (although it is a real 4 year university, Southern illinois university-edwardsville) and it sucked until i got involved with a fraternity and decided to move on campus next year which my parents had a problem with initially. get the credit at a CC over the summer and if you really want it try hard and believe you can do it. taking a year off isnt a horrible idea either if you need it.

I think your missing the point of going to college.The point is not the girls, what the school is famous for, or anything outside of getting an education. Take a year off, and you will never go back, it is called the comfort zone.I have watched it dozens of times. Anyhow, I think your dad is probably paying the bills. He probably knows your a shallow, Green, halfwit with no idea of the value of a dollar. All he wants to do, is make sure you get through any school and are able to support yourself, and maybe a grandchild. So he can take a break, I kinda doubt you would have made it this far in my house.

normal is only normal that dose not make it right just acceptable so don't try so hard to be normal try to be you, your dad don't care about what's normal only whats best so don't so don't take the "i wanna fit in road" it holds no water instead give him the facts that always works for me. good luck!

oh grow up! your supposed to act like a man not a kid, you want you want you want, the old man is paying for school isn't he?i assume you ask the question to get an answer you want, forget it. when you get into the real world you have no idea whats in store for you , you,my friend are in for a rude awakening. so go to school get your degree and have all the women you want after that! good luck!
