I have been accepted to a few places and I have no idea where to go.

At UTM I got the following offer:
First Year Studies in Business
At Ryerson I got accepted to Business Management.

This is what the UTM package said:

"As a student in First Year Studies in Business, you may choose to pursue the Commerce Program or the Management program by choosing the appropriate courses in first year and meeting the following requirements.

To proceed into the Commerce program (BCom) after first year, you must complete Financial Accounting I (MGT 120H5 with at least 63%), Introduction to Economics (ECO100Y5) with at least 63%) and Calculus and Linear Algebra for Commerce (MAT133Y5 with at least a 50%), or equivalent, on your first attempt. YOu must also complete a total of 4.9 credits and obtain a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of at least 2.5 (63%) - the exact required GPA varies each year depending on the number of applicants and their grades.

To proceed into the Management program (leading to a Bachelor of Business Aministration specailist of an Honours BA/BSc major) after first year, you must complete (on your first attempt) the following courses:
-Introduction to Management Functions (MGM101H with 63%)
-Management in a Changing Environment (MGM102H with 63%)
-Introduction to Economics (ECO101 with 63%) or the equivelant
-and complete a total of 4.0 credits
-and obtain at least a CGPA of 2.5 - the exact requirement varies each year depending on the number of applicants and their grades "

Im really not sure where to go, and my question is if I dont maintain the average required to get into Management in second year what happens? and what are my options thereafter?

Can anyone advise me on which is a better program, and which one will be easier to maintain a higher GPA.



Thanks
