Transfer Engineering

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Michigan

<p>Hi, I'm currently a first year student at Illinois Institute of Technology, which is a very small, low ranked tech school. (56th for engineering) </p>

<p>I am attending this school for the amount of scholarship they offered in my way. However, I am not satisfied with their program at all. I realized cheap isn't always the way to go, especially if it's college education we're talking about. So, I applied to University of Illinois for EE, and was accepted for the following semester. </p>

<p>I couldn't apply michigan because I didn't finish their required courses. Should I just stay another semester at my current school, and apply to Michigan, or go to Illinois anyways? I know the engineering programs at either of the schools are outstanding. But Michigan is simply a better school overall. </p>

<p>The required course for Michigan by the way, includes, Calc 1,2,3 Diff eq, and Linear Algebra. This is 5 math courses in two years to accomplish. Although I can manage this by taking summer courses, is it an automatic denial if any of the required course is missing?</p>

<p>Btw, my current gpa at IIT is 4.0. Im pretty sure I can keep it above 3.85.</p>

<p>And I also read that when I apply as transfer for engineering, they won’t give out decision until december, when the final transcript are in. Is it really going to take that long?</p>

<p>Are you in-state at U of I?..if U of I is a lot cheaper just go there. Michigan is not worth the difference in price.</p>

<p>I’m out of state for both. I’m from hawaii, and there is no decent school there, so college will be expensive wherever I choose.</p>
