<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I was wait listed to VT engineering for this upcoming fall semester. They called me a couple of weeks later and offered me a contract stating that if I went to community college and got B's or better in all of my classes, they would guarentee a my admission into general engineering for fall semester of my sophomore year. </p>
<p>As I'm sure a lot of you know, at tech, you spend a year taking introductory course in general engineering. Once you have at least 12 credit hours, a GPA a of 2.0 or greater, and have completed all of the required introductory courses(such as chem, calc, intro to enge, etc...), you apply for the engineering department you wish to obtain a degree from. In order to obtain a GPA at tech, you need to take at least 12 hours worth if courses at tech. </p>
<p>When I take my courses at NVCC(the community college I will be attending) and I transfer them over to tech, the credits for those courses transfer but my GPA does not. So that is where my problem lyes....</p>
<p>When I transfer over to tech, I will not have a GPA there. Therfore, I cannot apply to a specific engineering major. Does anyone have any suggestions/advice/past expierences about a situation such as this. </p>
<p>P.S.- I plan on majoring in Electrical Engineering if that makes a difference.</p>
