Reality Check Cullen College of Engineering
I had plans on transferring into Cullen for CIVE but I’ve been humbled over the past 2 semesters. My GPA was above the recommended grade to pass admissions but I needed the recommended courses to be completed. So far I’ve had to retake Chem 1311, most likely going to have to retake PHYS2325, ENGI1331 AND Calc 2, I had hope up until this point now my GPA sits below the 3.25 minimum and with a potential 4 D’s on my transcript for the recommended classes I doubt I get in. Before this school I’ve taken some pretty difficult classes and passed with A’s but I’ve been humbled. Now i’m stuck because I wanted to become a Civil Engineer I have background knowledge and experience in the industry but that’s meaningless if i can’t pass the intro classes. Even with the holistic review if i do retake the classes and earn A’s I doubt they consider me. I won’t ever say never though but with my situation it’s pretty close. I’m not sure what my next steps are.
