<p>I'm currently a junior attending a public high school in CT. I know the college admissions process encompasses so much more than just the numbers, but since we don't know eachother, here are some of my stats:
-3.96 GPA (4.0 scale)
-Extended experience in the sciences (AP Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Presented/Published Research)
-High Honors every marking period...
...I've got the academics to make the cut, and definitely the ec's to ensure a wholsome application.
My question is this; what are the kind of courses that current applicants to the SEAS, and Jerome Fisher Program in M&T, taking? My school only offers math courses up to calculus AB, I'll be taking it senior year; but how will that effect me when it comes to being compared to students who may be taking higher level math courses?
Also, would it be better to apply to the College of A&S, and then transfer once/if accepted to the SEAS. Can I transfer into the Jerome Fisher Program from the College of A&S, or can one only apply to it as an incoming freshman?
Is anyone either in the same position, or in the possession of some helpful insight??
Thanks!</p>
<p>I heard that it is extraordinarily difficult to transfer into the Jerome Fisher program - like, they only take two transfers in and both of them had 3.95 GPAs or something like that. </p>
<p>However, my school also only offers up to AP Calculus AB, but I still got into SEAS. I think that if they find that your ECs demonstrate enough interest in the subject, and if everything else is good, then you should have a chance.</p>
<p>Good afternoon,</p>
<p>I have been granted admittance to both Penn’s M&T program as well as Cornell’s school of Engineering.</p>
<p>I am a math and science guy. But I do not want to have a profession in Engineering. My plan is Business with an Engineering background. What I am struggling with is I am not sure if it is better to have an engineering background from a good engineering school like cornell, then go to grad school for Business. OR should i go to Penn for a lesser engineering program, but a potential ability to cruise right from bachelors into WHARTON business MBA program?</p>
<p>PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help</p>
