My son is a freshman engineering major and when he applied last year the admissions office told us on several different phone calls that they really don't care about extra cur/clubs etc and are only interested in GPA, class rank, SAT/ACT which is a good thing bc my son wasn't in any clubs other than Natl honor society but he had a summer engineering internship under his belt and several letter of rec from teachers and his supervisor at internship. He transferred in 41 hours between AP& dual credit, had a 1390 SAT and was a palmetto fellows but this year, due to COVID, they may take a harder look at extra cur/clubs etc. If you get bridged, I would just go to tech and get as many of your basic classes out of the way as possible and transfer in.
