<p>a human from virginia, hello</p>

<p>3.5 GPA (very TOUGH grading scale, I hate it)
SAT 2140 (CR:620 M:800 WR:720)
SAT II (World History:660 Korean:800 Math IIC:??)
*will take Math IIC in October and November
EC's are pretty good. Got involved in a lot of volunteer experiences (as well as school activities)
Can get a good supplemental rec. from both the head of the institution
which I volunteered for, including the president of the Korean-American Scholarship-Foundation, Eastern Regional.</p>

<p>Now..</p>

<p>I'd like to major in Engineering, in particular, Aerospace Engineering.
However, it was my senior year when I just became really interested in majoring
in it. So, I did not (or could not) prepare anything for an engineering major, such as
SAT II's (sciences), AP's..(didn't take any AP science courses)</p>

<p>is there any way that I can still major in engineering?</p>

<p>and would you guys please suggest me any engineering colleges
that are safeties, matches, and reaches?</p>

<p>appreciate it and love ya.</p>

<p>*btw, I am going to ED UMich...but not hopeful TT</p>

<p>Yes, you can still major in engineering. You’ll just have to take calculus, physics and chemistry courses as a freshman.</p>

3

<p>Yes, you can still major in engineering. UVA is of course open to you. Case Western, RPI, WPI.</p>

4

<p>Of course you can major in Engineering. Especially with an 800 Math SAT. However, UMich doesn’t have ED. Apply anyway.</p>

<p>My son just graduated from UMIch engineering. He entered with no AP Sciences and hadn’t even taken calculus in high school. He graduated in four years with a math minor. </p>

<p>You can do it.</p>

5

<p>You’re fine. Take a look at Virginia Tech, we’ve got an excellent engineering program. Not sure about our Aerospace but in general it’s very good.</p>

6

<p>Virginia Tech and UVA are obvious choices. You also might have a good shot at Cal Poly, which I understand has a very good aerospace program.</p>

7

<p>Don’t overlook VaTech.
I’d also suggest you consider mechanical engineering for your undergrad degree rather than aero…MechE is more general and will open more job opportunities should you decide to go directly into the job market. You could specialize in aero in grad school after an BSME degree without any issue…the undergard programs only differ by a few courses, and you could always take aero courses as your electives.</p>

<p>Check out Embry Riddle as well for aerospace engineering.</p>
