Admission Requirements

First Time Freshmen

To be considered for admission to any Bachelor of Science program in Engineering, first time freshman students need a minimum cumulative high school GPA of 3.0 or GED average standard score of 510 in the 2002 format or 730 in the 2014 format with a Mathematical Reasoning sub-score of 190. A minimum ACT composite score of 22 or SAT combined score of 1110 and a minimum ACT math score of 22 or SAT math score of 550 are also required. Students also must successfully complete a minimum of four years of high school mathematics with fourth year emphasis on trigonometry or pre-calculus and high school chemistry. High school physics also is strongly recommended. Students who do not meet the minimum requirements will be considered for admission to an Engineering Technology program or they may choose another University program.
 
To be considered for admission to one of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology programs or information technology program, first time freshman students need a minimum cumulative high school GPA of 2.5 or GED average standard score of 480 in the 2002 format or 700 in the 2014 format with a Mathematical Reasoning sub-score of 180. A minimum ACT composite score of 21 or SAT combined score of 1070 and a minimum ACT math score of 20 or SAT math score of 510 are also required. Students who do not meet the minimum requirements will be considered for admission to the University College Exploratory Studies program or may choose another University program.
 

Transfer Students

Transfer students seeking admission to the Bachelor of Science programs in Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Environmental Engineering or Mechanical Engineering must have a minimum GPA of 2.75 from all previous college or university work and have college credit equivalent toMATH 1850 and CHEM 1230, with grades of at least a C or higher.

Students transferring into the College of Engineering Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology programs in Computer Science and Engineering Technology, Construction Engineering Technology, Electrical Engineering Technology, Information Technology and Mechanical Engineering Technology must have obtained a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.25 from all previous college or university work.  Equivalent credit for MATH 1330 or MATH 1340 with a grade of C or higher is also required for Construction Engineering Technology and Mechanical Engineering Technology.  Equivalent credit for MATH 1850 or MATH 2450 with a grade of C or higher is also required for Computer Science and Engineering Technology and Electrical Engineering Technology.

Students not admitted to an engineering program may not take engineering courses unless those courses are required for a degree program outside of engineering. 

Students transferring from other institutions must earn at least 32 hours of undergraduate credit in residence at The University of Toledo. At least 14 of these must be in the major area. The remaining credit hours are to be in engineering topics or in other areas that satisfy degree requirements.

Full-time students must take their last semester in residence and part-time students must take their last 14 hours in residence unless exceptional arrangements have been made in advance with the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies in the College of Engineering.
