<p>Just as a note before I start: I wasn’t an engineering major, so I’m not 100% on the ins and outs. </p>
<p>Since you already looked at the check sheet (<a href=“http://www.registrar.vt.edu/forms/degree/COE_me_13.pdf[/url]”>http://www.registrar.vt.edu/forms/degree/COE_me_13.pdf</a>) [I’m just placing the link so others who want to help can get to it quickly], could you tell us which courses you will have credit for?</p>
<p>Have you looked at EVERY prerequisite for each course on the check sheet? I know it’s frowned upon, but as long as hokiespa allows you, you can sign up for a course (99% of the time- sometimes a glitch or typo). I’m guessing you probably already have this figured out as well.</p>
<p>The key for you is filling out your schedule with CLE (Curriculum for Liberal Education) courses that are listed at the end of your junior and senior years on the check sheet. Departments spread out these courses, but you can really take them whenever (although they would obviously have you spread them out). Take an area 2 and 3 in the fall (6 credits) and a 3 +7 in the spring and that should work. </p>
<p>You could also go the route of taking Technical electives but as I said I’m not engineering and have no idea how they classify those courses. </p>
<p>If I misunderstood or confused you even more let me know.</p>
