Which schools had the highest percentage of their classes transfer out?

The following lists the law schools ranked 7-30 (see our blog post for the most recent USNWR rankings) in order of the percentage of students that transferred out of their first-year classes. We will do a future post on schools 31-50. We didn't use the schools in the top 6 because it has been our experience that very few students elect to transfer "up the ladder" from those schools and thus the data isn't as comparable.

It's important to note that this is just the raw data — students transfer out of law schools for a wide variety of reasons — and we don't purport to present it as an indication of value.
