<p>My daughter had several friends who transferred out of Reed.
It is a very small school, and students may decided that they ultimately want to major in something that Reed doesn’t offer. Like astrobiology.
Or they might decided that even though Reed meets 100% of need, it is still too expensive, especially if they are still looking at years of schooling.
And some also decide that they want a little more free time.</p>
<p>She also had one friend who missed her boyfriend, transferred sophomore year to the same university, but then transferred back the next year to Reed.</p>
