I'm the poster below who got accepted into the Scientists and Engineers Program. I know it requires a lot more credits but I think it'll be perfect for me since I didn't learn any computer science during undergrad (engineering degree). Undergrad gpa 3.73/4.00, GRE math 167 english 160 essay 5.0, 3+ years of work experience at small software company (I didn't do programming work though). I submitted a few days prior to the Aug 1 (scholarship) deadline and heard about on October 9. |
