Want to transfer sixth forms??

I’m currently a year 12 student at my school’s sixth form, and recently I’ve been considering the possibility of wanting to transfer to an independent sixth form college instead. I feel like I’m starting to feel a little out of place there, and don’t think i want to continue there as a student. I contacted the college I actually wanted to go to, and they do not offer mid year transfers as their enrolment for 2024 courses has closed. So now, I’m pretty stuck and don’t know what to do, as it might be too late now to transfer, especially now that it’s been 2 months into school, I feel that most colleges would not be open to late admissions.
However, I’m feeling a bit desperate and would really like to move. I’ve emailed 2 other colleges and have not heard back yet.
Can I get some advice on what to do in this situation? If anyone has had previous experience of transferring mid year in year 12, how did you do it and what did you do? Any help would be very much appreciated.
