<p>I know for a fact you have a great chance. UW Madison is trying to be more diverse and wants more black people to apply and attend as well as all different races, etc. UIUC is very diverse and that is one area UW Madison is weak in and is hoping to change. Your credentials are good but your essay choice, etc. could work in your favor just don’t be too one sided, I mean come across how you are diverse. Universities love when students bring diversity as well as accept diversity. My daughter traveled to China and loves cultures and used that in her essay. She a passion for culture and diversity and was accepted to some great Universities. I went to Madison ages ago!! Love the school!! </p>
