Why did Friedrich Nietzsche transfer from the University of Bonn to the University of Leipzig?

Friedrich Nietzsche transferred from the University of Bonn to the University of Leipzig in 1865 primarily because his time at Bonn was marked by significant academic and social dissatisfaction.1

His experience at Bonn was largely unsuccessful due to intense, acrimonious conflicts between his two primary classics professors, Otto Jahn and Friedrich Wilhelm Ritschl. When Ritschl accepted a new appointment at the University of Leipzig, Nietzsche chose to follow him there to continue his studies under his tutelage. This move proved beneficial, as Nietzsche flourished at Leipzig, becoming the only student to publish in Ritschl’s journal, the Rheinisches Museum.1
