Quick question

I got offered PSA, and they don't offer Civil Engineering at any of the other schools. If I went to a sister school and did the integrated studies, or just did the basics for a year to transfer over to TAMU, if I then applied for civil engineering, would I still be placed in general engineering to then fight for my spot in Civil? So I wouldn't enter my actual engineering year till my 3rd year? Or am I just kind of screwed..? Tamu was my dream school but I wasn't as fortunate to getting admitted.
