I had a 2.7 GPA but am now applying with a 3.95 as a transfer student after two years in college. Does my lower GPA in High School hurt me? Or does it show that I use to struggle but now am a straight A student in more challenging college setting?
Your new transcript will be the one that colleges care about. Good for you. Why not meet with a counselor at your current college to discuss how to best proceed? I am pretty sure though, that after two,years of college, only your college transcript will be of interest.
Some more competitive colleges will still consider your HS info. Look up the Common Data Set for your schools, section D. If it says required of some it usually means transfer students with <2 years in college.
