CE uses both science and mathematics and adv is retarded so this is the relevant and the correct board for this post.
I got a 1230 on the new sat last March, which I know is shit. I was trying to be a Normie, wasn't reading, and was smoking weed and drinking. I stopped that stuff, and took the SAT again in November with minimal studying, just for shits and giggles to see if I wasn't retarded, and got a 1450. I want to go to school for CE. The thing is, I had shitty scores when I was applying to colleges so I picked pic related, a mediocre state school with a mediocre engy school. I got accepted immediately for a major in CE, and got a 10k scholarship. I accepted the admission, but not the scholarship, yet. After accepting I found out I actually wasn't retarded and that I had got a 1450 on the November sat(as previously stated). Now it is November, most smart kids know where they are going and scholarship money is running out. I can't just go to a community college for a year because they don't offer CE. How do I get out of this shitty school? Should I apply for a better school immediately, before I even revoke my acceptance of admission(if that is even possible)? Seriously /sci/, please help me out, I don't want to become another shitty state school brainlet.
TLDR; I need to figure out how to revoke my acceptance of admission into a shitty state school so that I can go to a better college. Pls help.

Just go/call to the admissions office and tell them that you no longer want to be accepted/enrolled into the university. Apply to a better state school in the likes of University of Texas. Texas A&M. If they don't accept you just get your generals done at a Community College and transfer to a better program. Idk how it works in Texas but in my state if you have a high enough ACT the school will have a tuition waver for you if you have a high enough score though. If all else fails just stay there to get your generals done and transfer.

/adv/ is retarded but that isn't the point.

The biggest problem is that it moves SLOWLY (2 programming in C++ classes, followed by 2 data structure classes, and then algorithms) and low requirements (No DEs, Modern Physics, Electronics II, OS, or Numerical Analysis). If you take a lot of electives and self study, you can make up for it though.

Call them up and ask to delay admission by a year. It happens quite often. Many kids use the time to study, work and save up, travel, try to switch schools or get scholarships, etc.

It's too late in the cycle to apply to UT and A&M; You can try applying to UTD, Texas Tech, or even Rice. You can also just take the scholarship at UNT, spend a couple of semesters, and transfer out later. not all hope is lost anon

And yeah it should be pretty simple to revoke acceptance, it should be on the application portal or just call them up.
