Transfer to GT from Purdue

I'm currently a sophomore studying Mechanical Engineering at Purdue, and an F1 student (International student).

I am applying for the Spring 27 semester, and I have 52 credits completed, including AP transfer credits, and I am taking 18 credits, which adds up to 70 when I finish this semester.

Currently, I have a cumulative GPA of 3.89 from 45 credits taken at Purdue, and the coursework I took is:

  • Calculus I and II
  • Physics I and II + Lab
  • Chem I + Lab
  • Engineering Design / Programming
  • Economics and other general education courses

The only courses that are not A/A+ are Physics I (A-), and Microeconomics (B-), and I have fulfilled all the requirements for transfer.

Then, other classes such as thermo, statics, physics 2, and calc 3 I am currently taking those now.

I'm also currently involved in undergraduate mechanical engineering research at Purdue in the field of mechanical engineering in energy systems.

So, I want to ask how competitive my profile would be for Georgia Tech Mechanical Engineering as a Spring 2027 transfer?

I know transfer admissions can be unpredictable, especially for international engineering students, but I'd really appreciate realistic opinions rather than just encouragement.
