She has a 2.6 though. Correct me if I'm wrong on the universality of this, but in my experience, one's GPA from a prior university doesn't transfer.

In most cases, you are right about that. There are some major universities, however, that actually transfer the GPA. That's why I asked that. It's weird when you actually see it in action.

Correct. This is not a universal policy. I worked for a major university that calculated all grades transferred. That said, the OP mentioned that she *had* a 3.6 coming into the transfer; but, that her 2.0/2.2 hindered her recruitment prospects. So, either her school does not include transfer GPAs into the overall GPA or her school says that one must have a 2.5 campus GPA to participate. That's my guess.
