<p>No, you will not unless you improve your GPA senior year (aim for a 3.3 senior year at least), at this point you might as well be looking at UAB if you don’t get that GPA above a 3.0</p>

3

<p>yea that’s why 21 percent of the school had below a 3.0 HS GPA haha</p>

<p>Ah, U of Alabama-Birmingham (UAB) is no cake walk. It’s Life Sciences Departments are highly ranked among universities in the southeast. UAB has been very successful in securing research grants from the feds. Some folks in the know believe that UAB is the better choice over UA-Tuscaloosa if you intend to be a Life Sciences major.</p>

<p>But I do believe that the admissions requirements are somewhat less stringent than University of Alabama; however, if one is looking at a health science major/profession, then UAB just may be the superior choice.</p>

<p>you have no clue what you are talking about.</p>

<p>Oh, I may have found a site I’ve been looking for. </p>

<p>University of Alabama Birmingham</p>

<p>Son is interested in Biomedical Engineering at an urban school. But he does not want a commuter campus, but wants one that has campus life, ie, lots of clubs, etc.</p>

<p>He does not want to go to med school, which is fine with me. He wants to do BME research and design biomedical equipment, go into industry rather than academia.</p>

<p>Also looking for schools with internship/coop opportunities.</p>

<p>Anyone know anything about UAB?</p>

<p>If you have a pulse, you will get into both.</p>

9

<p>It’s not whether you’ll get in. It’s whether they have a good program for your major. </p>

<p>Again, is anybody familiar with Biomedical Engineering at University of Alabama at Birmingham?</p>

<p>UAB is a powerhouse in the biomedical sciences. That being said, I wouldn’t go to a health science center for an undergraduate degree.</p>
