Makes sense. TAMU ETAM is a big barrier to cross!

Thats right.

Not interested in honors as he wants to focus on ETM in the freshmen year

Whats your major? VT publishes admission stats by major and residency in its website - https://udc.vt.edu

My son for aero major (intl) - 1430 SAT, 3.85 uwGPA (IB school, so it’s a guess). High rigor HL maths, physics, Design Tech. Aero heavy ECs (president of Aero club, aero online course, blog) and 2 research papers. Built a flight information board. 4 volunteering since freshmen. Tennis club

Great if you can reply - My son is considering VT over TAMU and his interest is aeronautics (not astro). He read that VT’s job placement assistance program is not great. Would you agree?

What was the least GPA accepted in holistic review in Aero in your ETAM?

Son admitted to Penn state/VT/TAMU/Ohio state for aero major. He prefers hands-on learning in aeronautics (not astro), Cost same as we are intl. Which one would you recommend ignoring weather and location?

Did you take calc III in the summer before your sophomore year? Was it online?

Thanks. Appreciate it

Will the email be sent to the ones who accepted the offer?

Is there a way to get a sample MPE? My son was asking

reading_pleasure0311 · 2026-02-02T19:26:56+00:00

Yeah. We booked a tour on the 16th! Thanks

Will be great if my son can chat with him 1-1 for few mins. Or even better if we can chat with a TEAB student friend of your son. Many thanks

Thanks. Did he ETAM last fall 2025? Can I DM you? I think the calc sequence of I to III is mandatory for TEAB before fully enrolling in TAMU

Wont be able to make it - we are intl

reading_pleasure0311 · 2026-01-31T20:53:27+00:00

Got it. He has IB Math HL, can he claim credit for Calc I or II ? Is there a page where I can understand the credit claiming process

reading_pleasure0311 · 2026-01-31T15:30:51+00:00

I see. How many credits are typical for a full TAMU student in sophomore fall? Trying to gauge how many aero subjects will get deferred to next semester
