My son’s program option changed to BAC-ENGE-GV this morning. Not sure what does that mean and if we are out of waters yet :-/

@Lahoreia means he’s ON the water…in Galveston! 
Congrats, full acceptance offer should be coming, to Galveston campus.
But his major is not offered at Galveston…would he get an option to move back to his major in sophomore year?
Engineering students no matter Galveston, College Station or McAllen all go through the same ETAM process to get major of choice.

@Lahoreia did he not apply for Engineering?

Yes, applied to CS
Yes, every incoming freshman starts out as General Engineering, then goes thru ETAM.
Galveston is considered full acceptance-sports pass!

@Lahoreia make sure you all read the ETAM links & requirements carefully, especially the updated incoming class of ‘26 gpa.

Considering my son received Galveston engineering I may opt to visit thaw if campus and skip the Aggieland Saturday this weekend. Or is there any benefit to going to Aggieland Saturday. I think I can figure out etam and everything else online.

My son got 7 tabs on Howdy this morning and his AIS changed to General Engineering Galveston. I’m so glad to see this. It has been a long wait! He really wanted CS, but I think Galveston is a great option.

If Aggieland is this Saturday, why wouldn’t TAMU let all the students know the decision by then so students can attend. Why do Aggieland now when potentially some decisions may come out as late as April?

@ALN Aggieland Saturday is for all prospective students, not just for those who have applied and/or been accepted. It’s always in February. Many who attend are high school sophomores & juniors. Anyone is welcome to attend.
