This semester I will be participating in study groups, tutoring labs, etc. My gpa will definitely be at least a 2.75 by the end of this semester, especially since I decided not to take econ this semester. And I will be taking classes this Summer that should hopefully boost it to at least a 3.0 if not higher. I was just saying I shouldn't have a problem being accepted to the university itself, because unlike other schools like UF and UGA, where they will only accept transfer students if they have room (says so on their websites), UTK does not have that problem.

Be aware that your summer school classes may not have official grades posted in time for recruitment in the fall. Especially with being a transfer student the grades have to officially post, and the transcript be sent to your new school and processed. For example my school has summer grades as official after recruitment starts and you'd be out of luck.
In regards to W grades, my school only allows you twenty credits total of W ad then you have reached the limit unless you have extraordinary circumstances. I only have three and it was from last semester, our drop period is after midterms.
