I am applying to some ONLINE MS and M. Eng programs that are not research based, tailored as professional masters degrees. These are in mechanical engineering, and the programs do no necessitate a BS degree in mechanical engineering. Background: B.S. Degree Materials Engineering 2019 Rutgers University, minor: Economics GPA. 3.6 Cum, Major: 3.61 GRE: V 158, Q 167, Essay: 5 Strong LOR from professors and professionals with prestigious and strong backgrounds I have a PS that is strong and I’m working on it a bit more. It helps to reflect and strengthen my strong background and other nonfavorable parts like some W’s from health and family emergencies that arose. I’ve touched a lot on my work background and skills/resilience. Work Experience: -6 month CoOp in a major aerospace manufacturer in QC and process engineering -Two 3-4 month internships with major aerospace/defense firms in materials RandD, quality, process improvement, and failure analysis -1 year and counting at another major aerospace/defense firm in repair/maintenance engineering and field support engineering. Schools: RPI, USC, UCLA, Illinois, Johns Hopkins, UConn, UMass, Rutgers, UT Austin, Michigan State Again these are online, non research, coursework masters. How am I doing admission wise? I’m taking 2 entry engineering grad courses at UConn and I’m doing well in them, I anticipate getting As. These are in Adv Mathematics for engineers, and project management for engineering.

I’m applying for a masters degree at UConn in mechanical engineering (not a top tier school). I have a 3.6 GPA and a B.S. degree from Rutgers and I’ve had a couple internships at well known companies and I have a full time job at Pratt & Whitney. I do however have 3 Ws on my transcript (non major related dropped for health and financial reasons) and I have 2 C+‘s and 2 C’s. However half these are in non major courses. Will these hurt my chances assuming my GRE is solid and letters of rec are as well?

I have 3.67 GPA at Rutgers in Materials Engineering and I plan on going to UConn for a masters in Mechanical Engineering since my job after graduation is more aerospace and mechanical engineering ( I am working for Pratt & Whitney) and I am more interested in the crossovers between MechE and MSE. However I have some W's on my transcript. One was a Matlab course my freshmen year I took that I hated and dropped a week after the withdrawal deadline (wasn't needed for my major). Another was during my junior year when I did a full time internship and this was an elective in industrial engineering for systems and reliability engineering. The course was in the evening but at a horrible time after work and I disliked it by the middle of the semester and I didn't have an interest in the material anyway. I also withdrew from 2 major classes because of courseload problems one semester my senior year but I took them the next semester and got an A in both. I dropped a graduate level MSE class in thermo recently because the course subject matter was dry (I don't like phase diagrams and chemical thermo too much) so I dropped it; I took the class originally to see if I would like MSE at the graduate level despite my career path moving towards mechanical engineering just to get a feel for things. I anticipate doing well on the GRE and I can have many letters of recommendation. Will these W's hurt my chances of being accepted into the UConn engineering masters program?
