Well a GPA over a 4 could mean anything from 4-12... so you need to be more specific. Also, as has been stated in MANY other threads in the past few weeks regarding cut off grades, there is no set cutoff and it is all based on demand for the program in question. Based on your post I'm assuming you have between a 4-5 average. I cant speak for the health and aging B.A program as I have no friends in that program, but your average is very low (pretty sure thats near the minimum required grade for most programs) so it will all come down to student demand for the Health and Aging B.A program.

If you beat the cut-off and aren't trying to get into Honours, then your 4.2 will be fine. The BA isn't limited enrollment so you will fine. But make sure you do well enough next year to continue in the program!
Best of luck.

When I applied for the program last year I was told that both the Honors and the 3-year BA stream is limited enrollment. So with that being said and by the looks of your given situation I think you have a fair chance of getting in. Good luck!
