If you are planning to transfer to the BBA program at MRU I hear the GPA to get in is around 3.7 at least it was for this past Fall. Job-wise like others have said will not really matter. As long as your GPA is above 2.8, that's the general minimum that companies look for. I definitely suggest taking lighter courses now to increase your GPA. Easy core courses to take would be HRES 2170, MKTG 2150, INBU 3301, and the two stats classes.

Get into lots of networking and sign up for BASS (the accounting club) to get more information about job fairs and future opportunities. You could also speak to the advisors but I hear they are not that helpful. Go to the Career Center and talk to Ronak Dave to get some good insight about future options.

This is from a fourth year accounting student in the BBA program at MRU.
