<p>Hi everybody,</p>
<p>I will finish my BS here in Italy next year and I want to move to US in order to take a MS in Aerospace Engineering.</p>
<p>Nationality: Italian (International)
Actually my GPA is 3.2.
GRE: on the simulation i scored 770Q</p>
<p>Would I qualify for Iowa State?</p>
<p>Help me please!</p>
<p>Matteo</p>
<p>Well, they only thing I know is that you need a 550 (213 on the computer based test) on the TOEFL.</p>
<p>Good Luck!</p>
<p>Dude, your from Italy they’ll take you.</p>
<p>I’d probably agree with Come<em>Sail</em>Away, unless the Aerospace Engineering program is competitive.</p>
<p>I got more than 213…</p>
<p>Are you sure that my nationality status will help me to get in? Why?
Thank you so much.</p>
<p>Colleges like having diversity on campus and I think as long as your test scores are at least average, they will take you. Iowa State is a great engineering school but not nationally acclaimed as it should be so a lot of people get in who arent geniuses by any means.</p>
<p>Iowa State engineering does get some very smart people since it attracks a different group of students. They will get engineering students that want to specialize in Aerospace or Agriculture, which are offered at fewer schools.</p>
<p>From Iowa State’s website: [News</a> Service: Iowa State University](<a href=“http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nscentral/news/2009/apr/gradrankings.shtml]News”>http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nscentral/news/2009/apr/gradrankings.shtml)</p>
<p>“America’s Best Graduate Schools” published online today by U.S. News & World Report magazine ranked Iowa State’s Aerospace/Aeronautical/Astronautical Engineering: 27th overall and 19th among public schools.</p>
<p>Wow wow wow I am not saying that it is a bad school, I am just stating that ISU doesnt get as many applicants with a 4.0 GPA and a 35 on their ACT. i think it is a great school</p>
<p>wow, come sail away. You’re really slammin our school. For what its worth, my son has a 4.0 GPA and scholar, but he still mixes well with his peers and willing to help them if he can.
Anyway, I think the academic profile will vary widely depending upon area of study as mm99 stated.</p>
<p>Im not slammin anything you are just interpreting it how you want o…</p>
<p>It’s is just because it is typed out. It’s easy to only read one fragment of the conversation and interpret it out of context.</p>
<p>Yea i understand, but I am going there next year so there is no reason to be slammin it. I am actually very excited</p>
