<p>Where is your home state?
Purdue should be a match for you.
For UIUC, it depends on your major, it would be high match to low reach.
For UMich, you are low reach for CoE but high match for LSA (CS in both schools).</p>

<p>@billcsho My home state is New York.
By the way, I attend Staten Island Technical High School (a nationally recognized high school). Not sure if it helps though.</p>

<p>Forgot to mention that UIUC has 3 computer science programs, one in Engineering and two in LAS.</p>

<p>For UMich, is there any difference between which school i apply to for CS?</p>

<p>^ I have already answered your question above. For UMich CoE oos, you are low reach as your ACT is at 25%. For LSA, you would be high match as you ACT is right at average.</p>

<p>Sorry but I meant is there any difference between the schools? Is there any difference in attending and majoring in cs in CoE as opposed to attending LSA?</p>
