What are my chances of transferring in for Fall 2016? (Cockrell Petroleum Engineering)
I just completed my first semester of UH Petroleum Engineering w/ 3.94 GPA.
Took Cal 1, Chem 1, Geology, Intro to Engr/Petr Engr, Chem/Geol Lab, Kinesiology this semester (17 hours)
Next semester will be taking Cal 2, Chem 2, Phys 1, Chem 2/Phys 1 Lab, and Computing for Engineers next semester (15 hours).
Have been involved with couple engineering organizations, and have volunteered in association with them repeatedly throughout semester. Looking to also be a TA for the following semester, possibly hold an officer position.
Not sure how relevant my SAT score is (2080, 1370 Composite), though my HS performance was terrible, and am not planning to submit it.
Have of course looked into the courses and how they will transfer, will lose an hour in the transfer, though will make the 30 hour requirement.
I’m a Junior in High School but UT is my top choice, I don’t know much about transferring but I would say that at UH, which is emerging as a very good school, getting a 3.94 for Petroleum Engineering is amazing and would be very impressive to Cockrell. I don’t think they care about your high school performance, look on UTs admissions website they have all that stuff. Hook Em!
Hi all,
I’m planning on transferring to UT in Fall 2016 from the Honors College at University of Houston.
First choice major: CNS- Nutrition
Second choice major: COE- Kinesiology & Health
I ultimately want to internally transfer to CNS- Public Health but I didn’t keep that as my first choice because I heard it is more competitive, and I’m ok with either of those 2 majors.
My current GPA from Fall 2015: 3.437
My expected GPA after Spring 2016: 3.63-3.75 (depending on how many Bs I get.)
I haven’t done my essays or LORs yet, but I will spend a lot of time on perfecting them before I submit.
Some ECs I have from high school: President of Science National Honor Society for 2 years, 200 Hours of health science externship (shadowing/rotations), ran 2 blood drives, part time employment, NHS, and a LOT (like over 500) of volunteering hours from my religious center. Was top 5% in high school and had ACT 31 (not sure if that matters.)
In college I joined Pre PA association, and I’m still volunteering.
I have Calc 1, Bio 1&2, Chem , and Kinesiology credit (with labs.)
What are my chances for both majors? And is it easier to get into CNS- Undeclared? Thank you for reading my long post! Any help would be appreciated.
