What would be good safeties / targets / reaches for someone with a 3.45 gpa and ~1400 SAT international asian trying to major in civil engineering? My only hook would be that I am a first gen college student. I am currently looking at all universities in the US (any location, any price)
Any info would be good, thanks!
https://amspub.abet.org/aps/category-search?disciplines=15&countries=US lists a very large number of universities in the US that offer civil engineering. Many are not that selective and should admit a frosh with 3.45 HS GPA and 1400 SAT. Prices vary.
Besides the major, do you have any other criteria in choosing a university?
Be aware that US schools are expensive. There is unlikely to be any financial aid or scholarships for international students,
