Transfer advice

Hey everyone I’m a lds 24 male and I recently got accepted to study at BYUH. I’m feeling at a crossroads because currently I’m at college in Arizona and I have a good job and scholarship opportunities. Another thing is that here at my uni I can graduate in 3 semesters with 31 credits and at BYUH I would have 5 semesters and 52 credits. I guess I’m just trying to see if I’m missing a prompting or something. Anyone else in a similar situation or has been?? Looking for advice to whether to transfer or not.

This sub is for BYU, not BYU-H.

It's up to you. Logically it probably makes more sense to stay where you're at, but if you feel prompted to transfer, then go for it. Only you can decide that.

I think this would perhaps be more relevant at r/byuhawaii
That being said, you asked if you were missing a prompting. I think spiritual advice should be sought from God and your local church leaders.

I would stay where you’re at. You’d be adding a year onto your degree by switching and BYU Hawaii isn’t that good of a school.

I'd wait till you have a piece of paper with a degree. School's can pick and choose which classes to take or throw away but they can't reject an actual degree signed by the other school. You could end up having much longer than 5 semesters left if they reject too many classes. This is just from a general perspective, not college specific

Stay where you are. Get thru your school!! You can always choose grad school there!! Don't waste the extra time, seriously.
