Admission Requirements
High school students planning to apply to the electrical and computer
engineering program should pursue a college preparatory program
that emphasizes mathematics, science and communication skills.
First-time college student applicants to the undergraduate program
in electrical and computer engineering will be admitted if they obtain:
- An ACT mathematics score of at least 25 and
- An ACT composite score of at least 24 or
a high school class rank in the upper 25 percent.
First-time college student applicants who do not meet the above
criteria but do meet UMKC general admission requirements may be
admitted on probation.
Students seeking re-admission must have been in good academic
standing when last enrolled. Otherwise, re-admission requires a
formal review by the degree program committee.
Transfer students will be
admitted provided they have at least a 2.0 cumulative GPA;
however, a higher GPA is strongly recommended for students pursuing
this rigorous degree program. Degree program courses for which the student received a C or higher are accepted
only if they are from ABET-accredited engineering or computing degree programs or have
been approved as part of a transfer articulation agreement.
