<p>Can you transfer into an engineering program at a top school from a community college? </p>
<p>Please advise. Thank you.</p>
<p>The short answer: Yes, but it's hard.
In order to advise we need to know your stats...
Which schools you consider?</p>
<p>Yes.</p>
<p>For Engineering transfers, it is critical that you take the appropriate courses in your first two years.</p>
<p>This may vary by school/Engineering discipline, but usually involves Calc I,II and/or III; Physics (calc-based) Chem, some electives (Hum/Soc Sci), possibly a Programming course....</p>
<p>Check the freshman and sophomore recommended course schedule for your target school(s) and replicate it as closely as possible.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
<p>I agree that it's possible. Like Andale said, make sure you are taking the right courses ... and doing well in them. Best of luck.</p>
<p>When I was in CC (until two months ago) I took the broadest range of math and science. For example some schools require linear algebra but others dont. You need to be in the best shape (as a candidate) at the time of applying. Since you are interested in top programs and knowing that the transfer rates for these programs is very low, you need to make your self a competitive candidate for each school that you apply to by taking a broader credit hours which may result in excess of credit hours (like in my case), but it will provide you an equal opportunity at each of the schools.</p>
