The University of Maryland, College Park, has a dedicated section for transfer students on their A. James Clark School of Engineering website where you will find comprehensive information about transferring into the engineering program.

Some general requirements that they list are:

1. Completion of one year of calculus, equivalent to Math 140 and 141 at University of Maryland (UMD).

2. Physics 161 equivalents, or a higher-level physics course like Physics 260/261, is also required for most majors.

3. Completion of a general education course or unrestricted elective.

4. Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0.

Each program within the engineering discipline may have specific course requirements, so it would be helpful to get the specifics from the website of the particular program you're interested in.

It should be noted that admission into the Clark School of Engineering is highly competitive. If you meet the mentioned criteria, it doesn't guarantee admission but makes you a competitive applicant.

Unfortunately, the exact details you're looking for might not be available as a comprehensive guide or PDF, given that UMD's transfer requirements can vary based on the major you're considering within the engineering school. Therefore, it is recommended to check the dedicated program pages for the most current and accurate information. If you still have questions after checking the website, reaching out to the Undergraduate Advising Office (of the Clark School) would be your best bet. They can help make sure you're on track with the courses you're taking and give you any information you may need about the transfer process.
