College of Engineering and Engineering Technology

Admission Policy

Freshmen entering McNeese go directly to the Basic Studies Division. They do not enter the Engineering program until they have completed Math 190 (Calculus I) and met the other general conditions for exit from Basic Studies.

Students accepted by the University for admission do not automatically enter the College of Engineering and Engineering Technology, even though they have indicated a desire to enter a department within the college. In any area where enrollment may exceed the facilities of the department, it may be necessary to limit the enrollment and the size of classes within that department. In such cases, the department establishes supplemental criteria for admission with the approval of the University administration. Transfer students from junior colleges wishing to enter the College of Engineering and Engineering Technology may be subjected to proficiency examinations to determine placement within the program of their choice. Credit for courses taken at other universities with a grade below “C” cannot be applied toward a B.S. degree in Engineering.
