I have a 2.45 GPA. The requirement is 2.5. Will they let me in?

*I call bullshit on the 7 credit rule. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to take 8, though, you claim you need 9. Summer sessions come in two parts, so why wouldn't you be able to take 4 credits in each session?

because i only have time to do the 2nd six week summer session. and during the six weeks you are only allowed to do 7

Also, at my school, summer sessions did not come in two parts. I took summer classes one summer to make up some I had lost via transferring. There was only one session and while I'm not sure what the full class-load was, I took 2. I am 99% sure that that was the limit.

no if i had 9 i could get it to a 2.5 *easily

Well, shit, that .05 makes all the difference. *insert sarcasm here*

Listen, I'm really sorry, but there is little point to you coming back to argue whatever point you thought you had. Your grades suck, and even if you do the whole summer school for however-many credits and did perfectly, your grades would still suck. We don't know what school you're in, whether or not anyone would bend the rules or not, etc. If you want, come back once your recruitment starts and let us know what happened. If not, buh-bye.

I mean, if you want to post here just to argue because you're bored or whatever, people will get tired of it, if they haven't already. We aren't here to amuse you.

I know its been a minute since I've been at school, but umm usually when the credits transfer the bad grade you got is removed from your gpa. You won't get the grade, but the bad grade you had doesn't count against your GPA.

Now I could be wrong, but that's how it worked for me.

Agreed. I transferred and my GPA started over, but I received most of my credits.

How about you have your college/university to explain this.

Good grief, GCers, stop explaining everything to these people. They have plenty of resources if they aren't too lazy to use them.

Okay. Say you went to school A and took 25 credits' worth of classes. When you transfer them to school B, maybe they only take 20 because of what their own classes are like. A fashion merchandising credit won't transfer if you're going to MIT, for instance. Now, since all schools grade differently as well (plus other reasons), you only get the credits, not the GPA. DISCLAIMER: For some schools, you must have a certain grade or above for the credit to transfer. For instance, if I got a D in one class, it may or may not transfer according to school B's policy. If I got an F, those credits would not transfer.

Capice?
