My two c’s were from my first semesters, but my last semesters, i have been doing really good, all my grades are mostly A’s so my transcript shows alot of improvement, so can anyone plz chance me, so i can kow if to apply to more schools now.</p>
<p>I’m not sure about your chances because I’m not the right person to ask about transfer students, but I can tell you a little bit about the engineering school. The big question if you get accepted is when are you going to graduate? Having studied bio for three years and transferring to chemE is a big change in curriculum. The Chemical Engineering curriculum is specified, so I suggest you look up the classes that you have taken and see if they transfer. Most likely, I think you will have to start from the beginning and take things like BIOE120, ENES100 and etc. good luck - UM Engineer</p>

yo, I got into the fall semester as a sophomore with a 3.35 gpa. I’m a bio major too at a small LAC in PA. The only real EC that I had was a div 1 sport though.</p>
<p>It seems like for transfer students, GPA at the previous college is the MAIN determining factor. HS GPA, SATs, and ECs seem to play little role in the process (or at least that’s been the case in the past).</p>
