<p>Engineering has it’s own set of criteria for admission. It’s usually pretty cut-and-dried, and based on the numbers. I believe they look only at unweighted GPA, and the SAT cutoff is somewhere at or just above 1200.</p>

<p>That said, as you are aware, your Math and Science credentials look very good, and your unweighted GPA, I’m guessing, is good also. Your EC’s look good. Your only flag would be the Reading SAT. I’m guessing they will want to look more closely at your reading/writing abilities (perhaps your English classes grades, your common app essay) before making a decision.</p>

<p>You may get in directly, or they may accept you to the University and then you would need to transfer into engineering after establishing your grades in the first semester or year (see <a href=“Admission for Current UB Students - UB School of Engineering and Applied Sciences - University at Buffalo”>Admission for Current UB Students - UB School of Engineering and Applied Sciences - University at Buffalo).</p>

<p>Good luck to you.</p>

<p>(And yes, I would send the SAT 2 numbers. They aren’t required, but those are nice numbers, and can only help.)</p>
