I think the main problem he's having is that Beacon is halfway through their year, and with intercontinental transport being so easy (what with Pyrrha deciding to come to Beacon and possibly Weiss) there's no real reason for him to get transferred to Beacon halfway through the year like Carmine's backstory suggests. If he was going to transfer, it'd be more likely that he would transfer at the beginning of the next year, as it's highly likely that the other school are dorm based as well, which rules out a 'my parents moved to Vale halfway through the year' plotline.
