<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p>I am a fourth year Civil Engineering student in Canada. I plan to apply to a number of schools in the US for graduate studies in Structural Engineering.</p>
<p>My current GPA is 82.7%, my school uses a percentage GPA system but according to my advisors this is approximately equal to a 3.6 or 3.7 out of 4.0. </p>
<p>I have completed five co-op work terms so far: two in a pavement research lab, one term in civil infrastructure consulting and two terms in bridge engineering with one last term in building sciences currently under way.</p>
<p>I have also worked as an Undergraduate Research Assistant for a structural engineering professor at my school.</p>
<p>I have not written the GRE yet. I have scheduled a sitting for November 27th (is this too late?).</p>
<p>Lastly, I have pretty good reference letters. Two from professors at my school and one from a supervisor from one of the bridge engineering firms I worked at. Would it better to just go with references from three professors?</p>
<p>I was wondering if anyone could rate my chances of getting into these universities in the US for graduate studies in Structural Engineering:</p>
<p>MIT
UC Berkeley
Stanford
Virginia Tech
Georgia Tech
University of Illinois - Urbana Champaign
Carnegie Mellon
Cornell
University of Texas - Austin
Purdue</p>
<p>Thank you for taking your time to read my lengthy post!</p>
