If it's the latter, I wouldn't worry too much, because for the most part those kinds of programs weigh your most recent grades more heavily than your overall GPA. Also, "W" grades, as long as there aren't more than about 2 or 3, are not usually a big deal.

In many cases, there's an overall "transfer GPA" which is calculated separately from your overall GPA. That may set your mind at ease somewhat.
Yeah, I've been playing telephone tag with the lady at MRC credit transfer, but I can't talk to her until tomorrow, and i got a little antsy.

Thanks for the info!
