Transfer Trouble :(

So after completing my first year of college at Edinboro University, and taking a semester off due to my mother having a stroke at the very beginning of my second semester, I am trying to figure out where to apply for the Spring 2012 semester. I applied to three universities so far, Waynesburg University, Concord University, and the University of Charleston.

I have been looking at WVU, and colleges in Colorado, North Carolina and South Carolina. As you can tell....I have no idea where I want to go. I absolutely want to apply undeclared, but I am looking to go into the forensics/Chemistry field. I'm so afraid I won't get accepted anywhere because, due to my mom's stroke, I was missing so much class and my grades last semester are nowhere near where they should be. My mom was six hours away from me at college and it hit me so hard, I didn't even have a car to come home.

I was wondering if any of my readers are attending, or visit, a college they absolutely fell in love with. The location, the atmosphere, the student body. If you do have any input that could help me, please feel free to comment, or to e-mail me personally: click here!
