One last Petroleum Engineering Question!

<p>Alright everyone, I need some wise PetE advice one last time. :P I've narrowed my schools down to UT, A&M, LSU, and OU. (currently submitting applications to all 4)</p>

<p>UT - I will not be accepted, but am considering a transfer of some sort.
A&M - I could be accepted, provided a pretty SAT score this October and some smooth essays.
LSU & OU - Safety schools. </p>

<p>Now my question(s) to those willing to help:</p>

<p>Upon graduating from UT or A&M, how would Oil companies view a possible Junior College/Transfer route into a PetE degree?</p>

<p>Aren't UT and A&M practically PetE equivalents?</p>

<p>Is it worth it to attempt a transfer to UT or should I just focus on A&M admittance?</p>

<p>If I want to become involved in offshore drilling, does this rule out OU?</p>

<p>Why should I choose A&M's PetE program over that of UT? or vice versa.</p>

<p>Thanks everyone!</p>

<p>I would imagine a PetE degree is a PetE degree pretty much no matter how you got there.</p>

<p>I would say that they are pretty much equivalents.</p>

<p>I lived in Austin for 18 years (Austin is a great city, I just don’t think it’s a great college city) and could’ve gone to T.U. but College Station and A&M is a lot better. (Yes opinion) There’s something about being an Aggie that I don’t think anyone outside of the university can understand until they are actually one.</p>

<p>yes I have heard this alot TxAggie. Considering my mom and grandparents are aggies haha. </p>

<p>Are there any other factors out there differentiating between the two? </p>

<p>And so what I’ve heard is true? “It’s not how you get into the college it’s how you get out.”</p>
