Students must apply to UMSL before being considered for admission to the Joint Engineering Program. Admission to the Joint Engineering Program is normally granted to persons who have completed the pre-engineering program with a minimum grade point average of 2.5 over all mathematics, chemistry, physics, and introductory engineering courses (statics and dynamics).
Students with less than a 2.5 grade point average, but at least a C, in all their science, engineering and mathematics courses may appeal and be admitted on a conditional basis. Students may be admitted to the Joint Engineering Program upper level engineering fall, spring and summer.
Students often take their pre-engineering courses - the first half of their course work in mathematics, physics, chemistry, humanities and social science, and selected elementary engineering subjects at UMSL. Many students enter the program when they have completed their associate’s degrees at one of the many area community colleges where we have articulation agreements.
Transferring engineering courses
Engineering courses are reviewed by Washington University engineering faculty. Submit the Engineering Course Evaluation Request Form with course description and syllabus to mcmanus@umsl.edu.
Engineering courses completed at schools outside the U.S.
Credit completed outside of the United States cannot be evaluated before application. UMSL's Office of International Students & Scholars Services evaluates international coursework only at the time of application. Contact the UMSL Office of International Students & Scholar Services for assistance with international engineering course evaluation requests.
Applying for Financial Aid and Scholarships
Financial aid is through Student Financial Services and you may complete the UMSL Online Scholarship Application by April 1.
