These seem good, but the Powell piece seems too old to be useful, unless you want to use it for historical comparison. You should use ERIC or just search online for reports on transfer students. Typically these reports have to be publicly disclosed online, so they should be easy to find. I found one, though I am skeptical of its data (it was a "self-study," after all):

You might look for other recent reports like that to see how well transfers are doing.
