If it is University sponsored H1, there is very little option of transferring it. These H1 sponsored by non-profit institutions are exempted of 65K quota cap, and can not be transferred to any oher job type (profit making companies).

Your options are - either go to school or talk to some company and get job and ask them to sponsor new H1. I am not sure of second option though.

best of luck.
