@Dhruv97 UIUC considers the major you apply in CS had an acceptance rate in the single digits this year at UIUC, with an average of 35 ACT. Plus not to discourage you but Waitlisted is as good as Denied, last year no students were taken of the waitlist. I too was waitlisted this time, but I am international and my UIUC app was significantly worse than my other apps, the essay, and I was only able to list my 10th grade marks, So I know I might get accepted someplace better.
@Bored1997 I’ve seen their wait list stats from last year but I’ve also read on their website that some years they take several people off the waitlist while some years they take none. And where can I find the statistics for UIUC regarding admit rate for this year?
It was a blog written by a professor on reddit. @Dhruv97 Thanks I did not know about previous waitlists atleast that gives me some hope.
@bored1997 Do you have a link to the blog?
I think you’re a strong candidate for both but UCLA might be a bit harder to get into because so many people apply.
Would appreciate if you could chance me back.
