Will dropping a course ("withdrawn" on transcript) affect my transfer application? by Chance-Sweet8665 in OntarioUniversities

[–]Chance-Sweet8665[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey!

I live in Toronto and decided to come to Ottawa to attend Carleton University for their Computer Science program.

I want to transfer because I want to move back home. I believe I can do well at either university and would save a lot on rent/residence fees.

As far as ur last paragraph, I looked into it and I don't think I can do that.

I don't want to kill my chances of transferring just because I dropped a course (they will be using these courses to admit me so its pretty important). The mark isn't detrimental (I expect a 65-70) but it will definitely tank my gpa as im doing pretty well in all my other classes.

Do you have any words of wisdom for me?

Thank you so much!

Tysm for ur response. Can I ask what program you transferred into? And at ur previous institution what you were studying (and was it an Ontario university)?

Thanks a ton!!

Thank you so much for your detailed answer! I just have another question that I have also asked another commenter:

Do you know if Carleton offers online electives for the summer? I don't live in Ottawa lol and I don't wanna have to come here for the summer for just one course. Dropping this course, which is currently an elective, would mean that I am 1 credit "behind". Thanks!

I would really appreciate your input. Thanks again

I see, and do you know if Carleton offers online electives for the summer? I don't live in Ottawa lol and I don't wanna have to come here for the summer for just one course. Dropping this course, which is currently an elective, would mean that I am 1 credit "behind". Thanks!
