A comment on Two-thirds of American employees regret their college degrees. Parent comment
Top % of students likely transfer less often than bottom %.
Therefore transfer pool often has students from lower %. And statistically the applicants are worse than from initial application.
However that doesn't mean ones ods are less doing a transfer. It might be better given the transfer peers overall worse applications.
(This is all conjecture. I have no actual stats.)
