TCU to UT/A&M Transfer?

Transfer Students
1

<p>I am currently a freshman and Texas Christian University and not exactly loving it. I am also an engineering major, probably will go into mechanical if I stick with TCU. Originally I was interested in petroleum, but this is not offered at TCU. The engineering program and super small which is one of the things that prompted me to think about transferring. I am in the process of applying to University of Texas and Texas A&M. Both have much better engineering programs but are also much larger. </p>

<p>I am still on edge about transferring, partially just because starting over is a scary thought. I know TCU is a decent school and getting more and more selective, so I am confused about what to do. </p>

<p>Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!</p>

<p>There’s no comparison. If you want an engineering degree, go to UT. The best public option in Texas.</p>

<p>Yes, UT is great but I wouldn’t say A&M is any worse. As far as money goes, A&M is the better option but I would visit both engineering departments to see which you like better.</p>

<p>I would not stay at TCU. They are not know for engineering at all. And as far as becoming more competitive, they are far from high status for now.</p>
