Hi I’m a junior and I am trying to apply to uiuc. I am instate but the tuition is a lot of money so I was wondering if you could not only tell me my chances of getting in but my chances of getting the presidential scholarship or another scholarship the gives around 15k.

I know that my act is really holding me down but if I am able to bring it to the 30’s range would I be able to get a good scholarship? I would also be majoring in a science and I live in Illinois. If I am not able to get 15k off then I won’t be able to go to my dream school. I already qualify for an almost full ride at mizzou if not. Please help!
