Hello.
I am planning to transfer in the upcoming fall semester from a community college. Texas Tech offered me a $13,000 scholarship ($6,500 per school year), and let’s say that UT offered me nothing. I am going to major in electrical engineering. I really want to get the best education. Which school should I transfer to?
I say go to Tech. From personal experience (me & friends) UT does not offer too much financial aid compared to Tech or even A&M. I was offered $9K in the transfer scholarship & packed my bags. Also, another thing if you come to Tech, make SURE you apply to the Honors College. A big minus for me was that as a transfer student I would not even be eligible to apply to the Plan II Honors at UT. Screw that. Anyways, I would strongly recommend you apply to the Honors College & take the $$ & run.
