I found this page: http://my.mccombs.utexas.edu/BBA/Internal-Transfer
and I see that its 58% but this website contradicts it:
http://www.mccombs.utexas.edu/BBA/Admissions/Transfer-Students
there’s 563 resident who applied with 16% admitted while the first link says 58% admitted for 450 internal transfers(I’m assuming it includes residents and nonresidents)
Does anyone know if PACE students were included the last couple years for internal transfers? Or were PACE external or neither?
Is there a statistics page for engineering internal transfer rates as well?
@punctiliouseye I’m pretty sure pace is considered internal also … and yes there is an engineering internal transfer gpa page http://www.engr.utexas.edu/undergraduate/admissions/changeofmajor scroll down and click on Summer/Fall 2014
@MyLonghorn
Do you think if I contacted the cockrell deparment directly they’d be willing to give out more stats such as %admitted for internal/external?

@punctiliouseye probably not , but what major in cockrell are you trying to inquire about? or transfer into
@punctiliouseye because off of internal transfer you can relatively judge how difficult the major is to get into
@MyLonghorn
Chemical engineering but I am willing to do mechanical or architectural or maybe some other engineering
@punctiliouseye chemical is a generally hard engineering major , so keep your GPA above a 3.8 for that and mechanical above a 3.6 would do , and architectural is weird cause some semester is 3.9 and 4.0 and last year it was a 3.3
@MyLonghorn
Aren’t you doing CAP? Are you an internal or external transfer? Are the chances greater for people doing CAP or less compared to straight-up internal or external transfer?
@punctiliouseye i am doing CAP , so I’m still considered external … from what I’ve head CAP students are in the same pool , but apparently this year CAP , external and internal are all in the same pool so it may be really weird … they aren’t more or less … relatively same compared to external . so we need upwards of a 3.85
@MyLonghorn
Do you have any advice for a prospective freshman going into PACE? I just don’t know how likely I’ll get in.
@punctiliouseye nothing more than the usual lol , don’t have too much fun , study hard and have fun along the way . know what requirements or classes are needed to apply for cockrell and don’t do bad on those and you should be good to go. Biggest part of College is Time Management … get that down and you should be fine. \m/
