With Wayne State’s Accelerated Graduate Enrollment (AGRADE) program you create and follow a plan that allows 16 credits to count toward both your B.S. and M.S. engineering degrees. With AGRADE, you save time and money, enabling you to complete both degrees in as little as five years.

Admission requirements

To apply as a first-year domestic student, follow our streamlined application process. SAT and ACT scores are optional!

Deadlines

In order to provide sufficient time for advising and placement tests, those applying as first-year students will not be admitted to the College of Engineering after the following dates:

Fall (September-December) - August 1
Winter (January-April) - December 1
Spring/Summer (May-August) - April 1

Therefore, your completed application, including all supporting documentation, must be received by the university before this date. 

You will be automatically considered for a merit-based scholarship when you apply.

Students admitted to the university after these dates will be admitted to the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences as undecided. Such students may meet with engineering advisors to discuss their programs. However, placement into the correct first-semester courses for engineering is not guaranteed.

Transfer students

Transfer students may apply using the normal university deadlines, including taking advantage of walk-in admissions. However, students who are not transferring in Calculus 1 (MAT 2010) with at least a C must leave sufficient time to complete the Math Placement Examination. Students who have not completed this examination will be required to wait to take their technical courses until the following semester or begin the math sequence in MAT 0993.
