Is it possible to transfer out from BU?

I heard numerous complaints about how BU has one of the worst grade deflation

However, at the same time, I have seen some comments in WSO who has transferred out of BU. 

Although maintaining a certain level of GPA is entirely up to one's effort, I was curious if there were any successful cases who transferred out of BU and made into a target school. Is grade deflation that severe compared to other colleges in the States? 

In terms of transferring to a target school which is a better option Colgate vs BU?

The average GPA is a B which is pretty fair and certainly not grade "deflation". It has also risen by about 0.1 points a decade, hence, inflation. Do you expect to be given a 4.0 without putting in the work? BU Questrom is not hard and it's quite literally in their best interest to "inflate" grades so that their students can land jobs and internships.
