We study the mixing time of the $(n,k)$ Bernoulli--Laplace urn model, where $k\in\{0,1,\ldots,n\}$. Consider two urns, each containing $n$ balls, so that when combined they have precisely $n$ red balls and $n$ white balls. At each step of the process choose uniformly at random $k$ balls from the left urn and $k$ balls from the right urn and switch them simultaneously. We show that if $k=o(n)$, this Markov chain exhibits mixing time cutoff at $\frac{n}{4k}\log n$ and window of the order $\frac{n}{k}\log\log n$. This is an extension of a classical theorem of Diaconis and Shahshahani who treated the case $k=1$.
