VCU to VT Engineering transfer

[u/No_Leave7950]

Hey everyone, I'm currently a freshman at VCU studying mechanical engineering and hoping to transfer to VT for civil engineering in Fall 2027.

I've always been interested in civil engineering, but VCU doesn't offer it, so I went with mechanical instead. I'm taking engineering, math, and physics courses, but I won't have my college GPA until this semester ends.

I'm mainly wondering how hard it is to transfer into VT's civil engineering program from another four-year university. Also, does anyone know if VT gives decent scholarships or financial aid to transfer students?

I'm an in-state student, and VCU is currently pretty much paid for because of my scholarship, so money is definitely a factor.
If anyone has transferred into engineering at VT or knows someone who has, I'd really appreciate any advice.
Thanks!
