<p>My S got a sweat deal from UIUC in terms of some merit scholarship. But it comes with some GPA requirement right?</p>
<p>Like some schools would it be hard to get good grades in UIUC? Could somebody tell what are the average GPA's for CS undergrads currently? How difficult it is to get cumulative GPA of 3.5?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>First off congrats on being accepted to uiuc. Achieving a 3.5 is deffinitly possible, but will require alot of work at this university. Achieving deans list, or top 20% of the students requires roughly a 3.7+, while I hear that in other majors in LAS require 3.9+ to get deans list. Showing you that the top 20% of students have a relatively low gpa compared to other majors. Receiving a 3.5 is absolutely possible, and I have it entering junior year in mechanical, but will require alot of work.</p>
