Hey guys!

New to this site. I’m in a Canadian University and I decided after a few months this semester (first semester) that I wanted to transfer for second semester. I’ve looked over a few other threads and a lot of folk say that for a second semester transfer, marks are based highly off HS marks. Is that common for the states? In Canada, for a second semester transfer, you have to have a minimum of 2.0 credits from another university or a completed diploma from a college. If you have less than 2.0 credits, you’re considered a part time student and you have to go by what ever admissions is for HS. Also, cumulative average is different for high school students, university students and college students. I did have 2.5 credits, but dropped to 2.0 so my first semester marks are considered for the transfer and I’ve got a different average to achieve as opposed to the HS admittance.
