Admissions view on GPA?

In an ideal work, let’s assume I get a 3.5+ GPA for the next 3 semesters until it is time to transfer. Will admissions see that I got a 2.75 GPA first year and 3.5 GPA second year and go off that, or will they see that I had a bad semester first year. but got a 3.5+ the next three semesters and go off that, or both? (I understand that it doesn’t all come down to GPA, but it’s still a major deciding factor.)

Both, and there’s no real way of knowing how much weight they’ll give to your improvement vs. your rough start. Good luck!
