Colleges and Universities A-Z The University of Texas at Austin

<p>Hi guys. I was wondering about my transfer chances as a biomed engineering major at University of Texas.
Texas resident</p>

<p>Overall GPA: 3.43</p>

<p>Classes now taking: Physics_E&M, Organic chemistry, Biology, the labs for those courses, and Introduction to Biomed engineering</p>

<p>I am taking the Intro class right now because I recently switched to BME from biochemistry
major due to what my parents say is better choice. Also, I am in the pre-med course sequence. The above gpa has been earned in a top-50 university.</p>

<p>I called the department and they basically said GPA factors a lot into the application. and said most of their transfers have 4.0 GPA's.</p>

<p>any comments guys? Thanks.</p>

<p>Yeah lots of asians in the biomed engineering program. </p>

<p>As for your chances, I would say you have slim to no chance. If you want, apply as a biology major then transfer into BME. Otherwise, you’ll have to apply to some other university. Sorry.</p>
