Chances of admission

I’m wondering what my son’s chances are of being admitted. We live in IL so out of state. He is a rising senior and he has an SAT score of 1480 (780 Math and 700 Reading/Writing). His GPA is 3.71 UW and 3.97 W. Class rank is 37/294. He has taken AP Physics, APUSH and AP Environmental Science. His senior year he is registered to take AP Chem, AP Calc BC, AP Computer Science, and AP Stats plus English, PE and a mobile app maker class. Junior year he got all A’s or A-‘s in his courses. He has gotten 1 C Sophomore year in Spanish 3 and all other grades where A’s and B’s. He wants to study mechanical engineering. So just wondering what his chances of being admitted are. Thanks.

I would think pretty good. Being OOS does not help but his SAT scores are very good and may get him in. Also, they like to see a challenging curriculum, which he seems to have. For comparison, my son who got in (ChemE) had slightly lower SAT but higher class rank and GPA and similar class load. Best of Luck.
