<p>what colleges offer direct admission to their undergraduate aerospace engineering programs?</p>
<p>Many colleges do.</p>
<p>Are you asking which colleges don’t require you to apply directly into engineering with certain (higher) stats?</p>
<p>What are your stats?</p>
<p>What is your budget?</p>
<p>North Carolina State University</p>
<p>I thought most colleges did.</p>
<p>I’m not sure what he’s asking.</p>
<p>Since some B-schools require students apply during their soph years, is he wondering if engineering schools do the same?</p>
<p>He may be wondering if you can go directly into aerospace as a freshman. One son went to UVa ,another goes to Virginia Tech,both in engineeering. At both schools,you start off in general engineering type courses and then switch to a particular focus after you have completed those courses. In other words, even though both schools have aerospace, you would not start off there as a first year student. Packmom says you can go directly into aeropspace at NC State so obviously schools handle these things differently.</p>
<p>Colleges with first year general engineering are better deals as there are usually no entrance restriction on which engineering discipline you choose to join in your sophomore year.</p>
<p>^^^</p>
<p>I agree… I think Freshman engineering programs are a great idea. Students get exposed to all kinds of engineering areas and then they can choose which best suits them.</p>
