Application conditions for civil engineering applications in American universities
1) GT achievements: applying for civil engineering major, G/T requirements are more flexible. If you have a good research experience, it is completely against the deficiency of G/T.
However, this does not mean that the GT results are not important, and the results of the admission can be learned that the successful applicants for good schools, the GT results are generally in IBT: 95, gre1200 or more.
2) professional background, professional background is decided to apply for the key to success or failure, professor has a school project, certainly hope that applicants have certain research experience, can help in his lab in the future.
In a sense, the research experience is more practical than the GPA.
3) related internships and work experience: relevant work experience plays an important role in the application and research experience.
But work experience should be tied to your application.
4) interview and magnetic field: it is important to apply for magnetic field and interview in civil engineering as an engineering major.
The magnetic field enables the professor to know more about your research, your personal qualities, etc., and may also avoid the problems of GPA, GT, etc.
If the professor thinks you can help him, even the hard conditions are almost as likely to be accepted.
The interview is also an important way for the professor to check the students. The interview can examine your spoken English, your research experience, and your background.
