transferring into a college with biomedical engineering

<p>i'm entering UTdallas as a freshman this fall but i've recently taken an interest in biomedical engineering. I contacted UT austin, which has a reputed BME program, however all of the counselors told me that I could only transfer after a year. Once I get there they told me it would take an additional 4 years to get a bachelor of science in BME, totaling 5 years of college. </p>

<p>As a prospective medical student, does anyone know of good colleges to transfer to specifically for their BME program, hopefully one that won't cost me a year??</p>

<p>thanks in advance..</p>
