What do the Engineering faculty members look for when reviewing transfer applications?
Although the faculty will consider many things when reviewing applications for their respective departments, they will focus primarily on the content and rigor of the college-level courses that a student has completed and how well the student performed academically. At a minimum, transfer applicants should be sure that they have taken college-level courses in calculus, chemistry, physics (calculus-based), computer programming, and writing and have a minimum GPA of 3.0 (although most accepted students tend to have GPAs in the 3.5+ range).
