@YakinAg sorry to hear that. Did you see the change in howdy today? Hope everything works out for you.
@YakinAg sorry about the news, keep on working hard! So did they start reviewing them already cause they said to the 15 but you never know.
@laura95 Sorry, I’ve been MIA… I don’t have any idea about the residency. I can’t do 1 and 3 either. Residency was on my applicant page and looked fine. Sorry I can’t help.
@YakinAg Ugh, so sorry to hear. Persistence is key, at least that’s what my momma tells me.
Just wanting to know my chances.
3.75 Transfer GPA

Applying to Computer Engineering - Computer Science track
Second choice major is Computer Science
Iv’e completed most engineering basics, such as Calc 1 and 2, Physics 1, and Intro to Comp Sci.
Iv’e only made 2 B’s in college so far.
Application submitted on the 17th, all my paperwork was in on the 30th.
I’m also applying from a 4 year university under the Texas A&M system (TAMUK)
I have a transfer audit but nothing in my howdy portal has changed. All I have are the ‘home’, ‘applicant’, and ‘my howdy’ tabs. AIS hasn’t changed either.
Was just wondering if I should keep my hopes up or if I should be focusing on the next fall.
Thanks!
@TXag2017spring @coscAGG17 I was denied by the University without review. So after calling, I was told that my application did not even make it into Construction Science. which means that they are about to send all of the applications over for review. I will keep the thread going if any changes happen. I will probably go back to work after this seamiest and reapply. Red is not my color!
@TXag2017spring, almost forgot, the change was in AIS, one day I noticed that at the top it was a lot wider where my name and Major are, and I knew it looked different, and then on wednesday night I looked and it showed View Decision.
@YakinAg sorry to hear about that, if anything you could apply for next fall if you’re set on A&M. I really think that upwards trends shows that you’re dedicated to your studies and taking school more seriously. Honestly, I am also thinking about UH construction management even if I am lucky enough to get accepted to A&M.
Does anyone know who officially makes the transfer decision? And who reads the essay?
@coscAGG17 the construction science department themselves look at the whole application. I think admissions just makes sure that we’are qualified to go under review. After COSC makes a decision they will notify admissions and then they notify us. I’m pretty sure that’s how it works
@pokerunner Thanks so much! I hope we all get admitted nw that its past the 15 I’m sure it won’t be long!
@coscAGG17 I called them a couple of days ago and they still said it would be 4-6 weeks, but hopefully it’s sooner than later!
@pokerunner Yeah they told me the same thing. But I believe it will be sooner i just have that feeling! I will be checking if my tabs come up hopefully they do.

@pedialytered I think you have a good shot considering you have Calc 1/Calc 2/Phys 1 done and I’m going to assume Calc 3/Phys 2 in progress. You’ll have an even better chance of being admitted if you have above a 3.0 in all STEM courses.
@coscAGG17 @pokerunner I know we’ve applied to different departments but we can finally begin expecting an answer any week now. It’s been such a long wait!
@CompSciAg I hope so! It will be nice to finally hearing an answer after waiting for quite a while.
@CompSciAg Physics 2 and Differential Equations in progress. I made a B in a digital logic design class, and a B in inorganic chemistry. Those are the only two B’s I have made. Everything else has been an A. I look to either get a 4.0 or at least a 3.8 this semester. I’m hoping that I get in. Seeing everyone else getting in makes me happy and more hopeful!
@CompSciAg @pokerunner I’m saying! I can’t wait it’s been forever!!! I just need to know I wish they gave us an exact day
Howdy Future Ags!
For those of you who have been accepted already, congratulations! For those of you still waiting to hear back, I know firsthand just how painful the waiting and wondering process is because I was actually a transfer student myself into Mechanical Engineering during the fall of 2013.
Texas A&M University is a fantastic place to be a student and has provided me with opportunities and experiences I will never forget. With that being said, I am quickly approaching my graduation date this December, and am excited to start the next chapter of my life working as an engineer, full-time.
I am currently searching for a student who plans to move to College Station for the Spring of 2017 and is looking for housing. The 4 bedroom house I live in is ridiculously close to campus, and has the coolest roommates you could possibly ask for. The house has a backyard and each tenant has their own room and bathroom. Please contact me if you would like more information or would like a tour of the house! I am willing to negotiate. Also, feel free to contact me if you have any questions about life in College Station or making the transition as a transfer student. I work in the advising office so I answer similar questions every day as my job =]
Message me through this website or text me @ 281##309##2342.
Thanks, good luck, and Gig ‘Em!
Does anyone know how many people applied to construction science or how competitive it usually is?
@ChristianDelgado51 it isn’t known how many people applied to the program, but there’s about 5-7 of us here. They said they’re looking at applicants around a 3.0 and when I said I had a 3.55 the COSC advisor said “oh you’re fine” so I guess that range should be solid.
