Can I get into UH 9 should I do community college first?

I graduated in 2008. I was 34/74 in my class. I started college after I graduated for game design because my mom kept telling me that’s what I should do, I wasn’t interested so I quit and we’ll 2 kids and a wife later I’m ready to go back but for civil engineering this time around. I’ve been looking on the UH website and all I can find is a minimum ACT score of 28 if your class rank is I the 25-50% range, to get accepted onto the school of engineering. Do you think I can get in or would I have to transfer over?
