<p>Has anyone who applied for fall '09 been accepted into direct admission from UCSC's School of Engineering? If so, what was your GPA and SAT? Thanks.</p>
<p>Also, if I apply for direct admission and get rejected by the college but get accepted by UCSC will I ever be able to apply for school of engineering during my stay in UCSC? Thanks.</p>
<p>My son was accepted directly into EE with these stats…3.3 uc gpa, 1800 SAT/680 math and sat math II 620. So if you have a half way decent gpa and sat scores it shouldn’t be hard to get in. Engineering is not impacted at UCSC. Plus they only have around 800 students in the whole engineering school. </p>
<p>We toured the engineering school 2 weeks ago. The labs looked very new and impressive (esp. their new bioeng program), however my husband (USC EE alum) commented that the school seemed a little “half baked” without offering mechanical/civil eng. My son decided he wanted to go with something a little more “hands on” and decided mechE was more to his liking, so he will be attending Cal Poly.</p>
<p>I was accepted for CS: Game Design with a<br>
3.9 W GPA
SAT: CR:710 M:670 W:660
SAT II Math: I don’t recall, but in the 620-650 range</p>
<p>Also, to rxcat. When I was there they explained that they don’t have mechanical/civil engineering because they’re considered static. Meaning set in stone. They are not exploratory (could be wrong, this is merely what they said). UCSC focuses a lot more on “future” technologies such as bioengineering.</p>
