MS-Mechanical Engineering Stanford!please help

Graduate School
1

<p>I am a Senior at University of California San Diego, I transferred to UCSD 1.5 years ago from a JC. My UCSD GPA is 3.5 for ME and a minor in Law & Society, in addition to lots of leadership experience such as officer position in SWE, AS engineer senator, orientation leader and research experience in robotics. I am a women in engineering and in a way minority .... I have very good recommendations and last summer I took a controls class at Stanford. Stanford is my dream school, but I am not sure if I can get in with a 3.5. I am applying with no aid...should I have any hopes of getting in?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>that’s hard to say. just compare your stats to past grad profiles</p>

<p>How can I look at past stats…? Thanks</p>

<p>Your stats is OK, but since UCSD is not every good at MechE, your chance at Stanford is pretty low. Iam an undergrad at Stanford and I know most of the Master students have 3.7+ and from top ten engineering schools i.e. MIT, Caltch, Georgia Tech. There is always exception though</p>

<p>btw, they don’t offer financial aid in grad school. ONly offer TAship or RAship</p>
