<p>Preventing transfers is not on the radar…BS. Any high tuition private that is not named HYP is VERY concerned about losing students to transfer–especially their top ones. And the main reason they have the 2 year programs—$$$$$. Not some altruistic reason. The lower level classes are dirt cheap to teach using mostly adjuncts and they charge full tuition. What do both schools have in common–urban schools with very little endowment. They attract lots of kids and lose many to transfers out. Their graduation rates show the attrition.</p>
