Get the money to apply and see if you can get in before bringing up arguements with your folks. The reason why I say this is b/c I am thinking for your application you may need to provide some tax forms and since they are claiming you as an dependent it's goona come from them.
Tell them that if you get in, you would like to then sit down and talk to them about it...
Once you get in, if they still are against it... take a job, take a loan and follow your heart. Good Luck.

If you only have one or two semesters (or three quarters), then go ahead and change colleges. Every time you transfer to a new college, you will lose some of your college credits. This is because your new college simply won't accept them or they might not apply/fit into your course of studies after you get there. If you only have one or two semesters at your current college, then you probably won't lose many credits.
If you have been in your school for more than a year, stay put. Transferring will put you behind more than it is worth, both in time and in money. Time because you will lose credits and will have to take classes over again once you get to the new school, and money because those credits that don't transfer have been paid for and are now wasted. If you have already finished more than two semesters or three quarters, then just stay where you are and push through. If you're really unhappy, take summer classes to get your degree done faster. Then be choosier about which college you select, if and when you go to earn your masters degree.

Questions for you:
Who pays for your college?
Will it cost more if you change?
Why do you want to change?
If you are wanting to change for the right reasons, and it will not cost your parents more money, then try talking to your parents again.

First off, why do you want to change and why are your parents against it? If they're paying the bills, then it's best you stay where you are unless you're HOPELESSLY UNHAPPY. If that's the case, then transfer out but be prepared to pay for college on your own with loans, part-time maybe fulltime job.

IT is difficult if you are in the middle of a course it can be difficult to move due to portfolio assessments grading and structure. T o be fair to your parents that is what they will worry about. What you need to do is look at how you can move. Ensure you can move to a course that will except your current work and is assessed the same. If you do not check you could end up having to repeat work and waste your time.iAM sure your parents only think about your best interests. TRUST THEM

First have a pro list for why you want to change... Explain it to them rationally with out all of the drama... I think that with everything out in the open your parents will either understand or not... but regardless do what you feel is right
