<p>I know my freshman years grades sucked and that has affected my total gpa HOWEVER there is a significant increase in GPA since then..do you think admissions would consider this growth as an advantage??</p>

<p>The admissions would absolutely consider a GPA growth as an advantage. Your SAT scores (which for GTown would be 1500 not 2210) are a testament to the fact that your freshman grades are obsolete. I have a feeling you knew this already but just needed some peer approval :wink: </p>

<p>Well I approve and I think you deserve in…</p>

<p>I don’t think Georgetown has an engineering program.</p>

<p>You can check [url=<a href=“http://www.abet.org%5DABET%5B/url”>http://www.abet.org]ABET[/url</a>] for accredited engineering programs in the U.S. I did not find Georgetown with a cursory search.</p>

<p>There’s this: [Science</a> and Engineering - Georgetown College](<a href=“http://college.georgetown.edu/programs/majors/43472.html]Science”>http://college.georgetown.edu/programs/majors/43472.html)</p>

<p>Very basic</p>

<p>Georgetown doesn’t have engineering. The science majors at Georgetown are:</p>

<p>Biology
Biology of Global Health
Neurobiology
Environmental Biology
Chemistry
Biochemistry
Physics
Human Science (biomedical science)</p>

<p>There is the dual degree program mentioned above with Columbia University, which seems interesting. I personally would just opt to go to a school with the engineering field I want to study from the beginning.</p>
