<p>I tried to PM you, but unfortunately the site says I must have atleast 15 posts to use that feature!</p>
<p>In regards to your post, I was hoping to find the average GPA for a ChemE graduate, but couldn’t. I will have to try contacting the university.</p>
<p>Concerning my financial aid, if there was no scholarship, UVA would be a cheaper option for me. I received a large grant from the university, and 9,000 per year in loans for an out-of-state student is very cheap. But looking at your point, I’m very certain I will be able to maintain the scholarship for the first two years, atleast, so the remaining costs of PSU would be cheaper than the overall cost of UVA. Plus, like you said, unlike the scholarship, the grant isn’t guaranteed for 4 years, and if the aid would decrease for UVA, I would probably end up transferring, anyways.</p>
