Big Earl, I’m not sure who you spoke to, but she definitely isn’t helping you with false information. I’m not sure where you got the impression that 2.7-2.9 will get you into second year commerce easily. If you’re serious in transferring, I would suggest you book a time to talk to the counselors at sauder specifically and ask them about historical averages of transfer students.
For a second year transfer, yes they’ll only look at your most recent 30 credits and your core average is calculated based on engl, math, micro and macro econ but keep in mind that second year transfer averages are typically harder because there are usually more students apply for a second year transfer rather than a third, and also emphasis is only placed on 4 basic first year courses as opposed to a third year transfer where you must complete at least 5 of the 7 second year business courses.
Take it from me, if you’re currently sitting at 2.56 GPA at langara, you better plan on doing second year business courses at Langara and work your ass off to bring that GPA up. I’m speaking objectively and I don’t mean to offend you, but you would be dreaming if you think you can get into sauder with anything below a 3.1 or 3.2. I’m speaking from experience and I did not get accepted into second year sauder with a G.P.A of over 3.2 when I applied in 2011
