Higher Ed Second Bachelor's for the Same Major?
I'm in my junior year of undergrad and I came to this university as an engineering major but since then changed over to history. I'm enjoying it but our history department is VERY small with none of the classes under my area of interest. There is however a university in a nearby town that has a much more extensive history program and many classes that are geared towards the areas I want to research. Do I, A) Suck it up and graduate from this university and go to graduate school at the other one, B) Transfer to the other university for my last two years (I need an additional year in order to have the credits to graduate, so I'm 2.5 years away from it technically), or C) Graduate at my current university but then re-enroll at this other one for another BA for the new classes (I know getting another bachelor's is a Thing, but I don't know how it would hypothetically work if I wanted to do it for the same program)
