<p>Should I apply for early decision because in a past post someone said all bussiness applicant are deferred? What are my chances? And also for those already in the bussiness program how much do you typically study?</p>

<p>Business does admit some through early action with decision in December but does defer majority who apply early until Feb decision. You don’t give class rank, which they rely on, but assume it is high with your GPA. You have a decent chance but no certainty. Having very high stats does not guarantee admission and essays are very important. The business school has the lowest admission rate, about 37%, of all the colleges at UIUC.</p>
