Engineering-Spring Admission!!!

<p>Hey all,
I was wondering if it was easier to get into a graduate engineering program for spring admission. I know they accept less applicants, by at the same time, there is a small applicant pool. Can anyone give me advice on some of these schools I'm applying to for Materials Eng (MS/PhD) next spring??</p>

<p>Applying to:
GaTech
Michigan
Columbia
UPenn
Duke
Dartmouth</p>

<p>I graduate in December. Stats below:
+3.23 cum gpa, 3.6 major gpa from GaTech in Materials Engineering
+Very involved in research (2 years), have presented at 5 prestigious research conferences
+Did an internship at the largest chemical company in the world also.<br>
+550Verb, 750Quant
+Great LORs, all from top professors</p>
