I don’t know. I would talk to admissions or maybe someone else on CC has better info.
Regardless, if you can attend a good school, for a lower cost, with guaranteed admission to engineering I’m not sure why you wouldn’t go that route.
I’m not sure whether a 3.20 gets you automatic admission into Chem E
OR
you need at least a 3.20 just to be able to apply to Chem E with no guarantee of admission.
I read it as “In order to be eligible for entrance”, not guaranteed entrance.
