Hey guys so I have applied to both UT Austin and TAMU for their engineering programs and have been accepted to TAMU engineering. However, after looking at the other threads I don’t believe I will be accepted into Cockrell. Since I am top 7% in state, I know that they will put me into Undergraduate Studies (UGS), which I heard is risky. However, I don’t want to go to TAMU because of its Entry-to-Major program in which all engineering students must apply to engineering departments after their first year and because I’m liberal minded and don’t think I will fit in very well there. Should I choose to attend UT UGS and then apply to Cockrell after one year or should I just go to TAMU? Has anyone done the UGS route and still has graduated in 4 years? Thanks.
