In my years as a professor, I saw that happen several times, DubaiSis, although it was almost always for homesickness. People who transferred for other reasons--like Greek life--usually waited until the next semester or year. I've got to say, though, that I have seen far worse reasons to transfer than wanting to be Greek. Such as, and these are all real:

1. Wanting to be near a beach with good waves.
2. Missing the hometown Y's volleyball team.
3. A guy's family not having the status in the new state that they had in his home state.
4. Thinking that the university's terrain was too flat and ugly.
5. Missing the family pet.

I could think of more if I had the time but there are so many reasons that people transfer and if it works for them, fine by me.
