Changing Your Major to Engineering
Applicants to engineering programs will discover that not every university to which they apply has the same policy for how to officially become an engineering major. For example, all freshmen at Auburn University need to successfully complete five to seven prerequisite courses prior to being accepted into the engineering track. On the other hand, students can earn direct admission in the College of Engineering at the likes of Boston University, Duke University, and the University of Texas at Austin. Applicants who want to enter this highly-competitive field of study should have an understanding of the various pathways into the engineering major at their prospective schools. Those eyeing a backdoor route into a given program can benefit from assessing the level of ease with which one can later internally transfer into an engineering major.
The table below provides this important information for a number of premier engineering programs in the United States. Column headers are defined below:
Direct Admit – Indicates whether prospective undergraduates can be admitted directly into an engineering major.
Prerequisites – Links to the institutional webpage that details requirements for transferring into an engineering major.
Minimum Progress – Indicates the minimum number of credits, semesters, or quarters needed to transfer into an engineering major.
Minimum GPA – Indicates the minimum GPA one must possess to be considered for admission into an engineering major. At most institutions, earning the minimum GPA does not guarantee admission.
Difficulty – An ordinal rating (from “Less” to “Very”) indicating how difficult it is to transfer into an engineering major.
More Info – Links to an institutional webpage providing more detail about how current students can transfer into an engineering major. If there is no additional info beyond what is provided in the institutions “Prerequisites” page, links for “Prerequisites” and “More Info” are identical.
*At institutions where there is no direct admission, requirements for declaring/moving into an engineering major are indicated.
