Are you looking for acceptance into reg progam, honors, or gppa? If gppa for which branch/program

Are you looking for acceptance to their regular program, honors, or gppa. If gppa which program. UIC has a high acceptance since it’s a state school, however, their honors and especially Gppa is extremely competitive. With your stats tho-which are definitely not mediocre- you can get into honors and possibly GPPA depending on what you want to study

Thank you! I am planning on applying into computer science honors. Is that a competitive major at UIC?
