Chance me? (engineering transfer)

<p>Hey guys</p>

<p>I'm a mechanical engineering student currently attending a state school in the mid west, but am moving to pittsburgh for a year to do a co-op with a computational engineering company (ANSYS).</p>

<p>I was hoping you guys could give me some idea what my chances are for transferring to penn state.</p>

<p>I'll list some general information, and then a list of all of the classes I have taken. Feel free to ignore the list (it may be a bit much). </p>

<p>-currently a junior
-double majoring in mechanical engineering and math (on track to graduate in 4 years)
-minor in CS
-3.826/4.000 GPA </p>

<p>Students in the College of Engineering are not enrolled in a specific program until their junior year. (Application takes place in the second semester of sophomore year.) As one of the departments with an enrollment cap it would surprise me if you would be able to transfer into ME as a junior; the program is typically over-subscribed by students who are already in the college. Of course, it wouldn’t hurt to call and ask.</p>
