What's up with this transfer stuff?

The student I referred to in the previous post was at a small, private, regional LAC (midwest) that is not at all comparable to Vanderbilt. She was on a full scholarship there, and had a perfect gpa.

She applied for transfer to a number of schools. I believe she chose Vanderbilt because they offered her the best need-based financial package.

It probably says somewhere on the web site how many transfer students VU admits each year. I think it is not an extremely small number.
