Hey, I’m hoping to transfer from a private university to UIUC Grainger College of Engineering. I am a female Illinois resident and I am currently attending an out of state private university that runs on a trimester system. (I will be applying for the priority deadline because even if I wait for the regular deadline, my winter quarter grades won’t get sent in time.) I will also apply for either Information Systems or Industrial Design as my second choice. Please give me advice and chance me!
College info:
- Current Freshman in Industrial Engineering
- 3.7/3.6GPA for fall quarter (16 credited hours by end of November)
- involved in two student organizations (one is an engineering sorority and other is for industrial engineers)
- Missing PHYS 211 & RHET 105 because there are no classes that transfer through that I can take so I will be writing that as my academic challenge.
High School info:
- Unweighted GPA 3.56 & Weighted GPA 4.69 & 1080 SAT
- AP Chem, AP Bio, AP Calc AB, APUSH, AP world history, AP Lit, AP lang
- Has taken engineering classes all 4 years (PLTW)
- President of a cultural club, NHS member, Robotics team, hip-hop dance club
- Had an internship for leadership & business (5 years)
