Could I get into Lehigh University?

Question

I had a high school GPA of somewhere between 3.8 and 4.0. My SAT scores (the old SAT) were: Verbal: 620, Math: 670
My first year of college I will have either a 4.0 or a 3.9 (the semester is not over yet). Do I have a chance to get into the Lehigh University Engineering program?

Answer 1

Lehigh is a good school. You have a very good chance of getting in there. You should shoot for a couple of schools that are ranked higher than Lehigh -- because I believe that you can do better.

If you can bring your SAT scores up another 100 points or so, you have a shot at the schools at the very top.

Answer 2

From the Lehigh Web site:
Thank you for your interest in Lehigh Engineering and please don’t hesitate to contact any member of our staff for further information on everything that Lehigh has to offer.


Seem like nice enough people. Here is a list of contacts for the engineering department. http://www3.lehigh.edu/engineering/contacts/deptcontacts2.asp

Email one of the professors. If they don't answer, email another. But make the email two-sided. Don't just say, "I want to come here: here are my stats." Explain that you are applying as a transfer student and you'd like to know if the department accepts transfer students--and if they know what types of grades and scores they look for. But show genuine interest in the program by asking a question such as, "What can you tell me about your program that makes a Lehigh engineering education unique?"
Make the email as short as possible. Professors are busy!
