Chances at UIUC?

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Hi, I'm a senior getting ready to apply to college.
I'm applying for the University of Illinois - Urbana Champaign from Tulsa, Oklahoma.
My cumulative unweighted GPA is a 3.15 right now, and a 28 on my ACT. I'm also Asian haha so that doesn't help that much at all. I've done my fair share of activities outside of school and i'm also wondering what Major I should apply for to get in the easiest? I've heard agricultural and education, but I was originally going into General Studies. Help?</p>

<p>Lower-than-average chances at around 40-50%. Really make those essays shine.</p>

<p>As long as its a non-impacted major in arts & sciences school, you will have a “better” chance than, say, applying to S of Engineering.</p>

<p>Is the fact that i’m doing priority admissions help at all? and I go to a small private school that has about 100 kids per class, and over the past 10 years only 4 kids have attended this school, does this benefit me?</p>

<p>Priority will certainly help. Try to ED or EA if UIUC offers it.</p>

<p>That depends. How many people applied? If like 10-20 kids applied and 4 got in, that’s not good for you (means UIUC is picky with your school). If like 5-6 kids applied, then it’ll work to your advantage.</p>

<p>9 People applied and they accepted 7 of them!</p>

<p>That’s good for you then. UIUC isn’t so picky. But your biggest problem is your GPA and ACT. BRING THOSE SCORES UP IF YOU CAN. A 31+ will DEFINITELY improve your chances by A LOT.</p>
