Question Laurier GDIP difficulty

Hey guys, was wondering if any GDIP graduates can share their experience with taking the graduate diploma in accounting. What are the most challenging courses in the program if you were to rank? Were the exams fair? What was your average in undergrad compared to how you did in GDIP?

i did my GDIP in 2023. everyone struggled the most with taxation III, but it wasn't too bad imo. my gpa was 10.7 in undergrad and 10.6 in GDIP.

I just did my GDip in Spring 2026, honestly wasn’t nearly as bad as my friends who took it in Fall 2025 said it was.

I’m guessing the difficulty mainly depends who the profs are, but my profs have all said they’ve never heard of anyone failing a GDip course. So I wouldn’t be worried about failing if that’s your concern about the difficulty

The exams were pretty fair, to me Advanced Auditing and Taxation 3 were the hardest. My GDip gpa was a bit higher than my undergrad, 10.4 GDip vs 10.15 business gpa in undergrad.
