Hey!
I have a 3.4 uw and 4.1 w GPA and a 35 ACT and am applying for computer engineering at UIUC ()ea. I’m from one of the top, if not the top school in Illinois which speaks to how competitive the school is.
My GPA is low, and I get that, but I had obesity issues which impeded my learning abilities in my freshman and sophomore years. I spoke about this in my application. Since then, my grades have improved tremendously. Additionally, I worked at the University of Chicago (paid computer engineering internship).
If it matters, I won sixth in the international history fair in Washington D.C my junior year. Over 250,000 people participated around the world in all age groups.
My second major is Stats + CS. Honestly, UIUC is my #1 so getting in into anything would be great. Thanks!!
(If you want me to chance you too, just let me know )
