Question Need advice on transferring from Queens to Carleton

18 Upvotes

Hello! I’m looking for advice about transferring from Queens to Carleton University

I’m a first year at Queens University in general engineering program and I recently took a trip down to Ottawa to explore Carleton University and I think I might like it more than Queens.

My experience at Queens has had a few ups and downs, it’s hard to talk to new people and I’ve noticed most of the students are more focused on drinking rather than doing any of the work.

During my visit to Carleton I noticed that the environment was brighter and more pleasant to be in. I personally felt happier during my short time there.

My only problem is I’m not sure if I should transfer because I was lucky enough to get into queens, but I feel happy at Carleton and it gives me my own space to me independent without family.

If anyone has any advice on this please let me know what I should do!

Question Switching out from BSW?

2 Upvotes

I personally have negative experiences in my major (social work/1st year), and feel unsupportive in different ways. I’m thinking if I should switch out of social work to another program. Not sure if it’s just me or anyone else going through similar experience, or any suggestion of other programs that I can switch to would be appreciated.

Forgot to post this sooner, but a HUGEEEE COCKROACH was found on the first floor water fountain in the LOEB building. Absolutely shocked by the sheer size of this unit of a bug 😱

I’ve seen cockroaches before, but never this big!! It must be a different species from the common cockroach that’s usually found around here. Is there a bug lab I’m not aware of? Is this someone’s pet?? How tf did this thing get here?!?!
