<p>when is the decision for James Scholar (engineering) out?</p>
<p>I got accepted into BioE with a 2190 SAT and a 3.7/4.6 gpa
kinda surprised myself (OOS)</p>
<p>Any one know about scholarship chances at UIUC? My S got acceptance to BioE but we have not heard any thing else.</p>
<p>I havent heard about scholarships either. i think thats in the process at this moment in time.</p>
<p>Does anyone know if it’s hard to switch from mechE to EE?</p>
<p>Hey guys do we get a letter in the mail if we are accepted?</p>
<p>Yes, if you are accepted you get an orange packet with an acceptance letter and a nice booklet of info</p>

<p>^congratz! and good luck with MIT</p>
<p>It seems that everyone accepted to Engineering is either,
a) An Illinois resident
b) Has exceptionally good test scores and grades.</p>
<p>My RD chances seem bleak…</p>
<p>I didn’t get an orange packet:-(</p>
<p>Garggaurav, don’t be so down. I got into Engineering as OOS with a low ACT score. Just make sure your essay shows you’re truly interested in UIUC and what it has to offer; I think my essays really helped me.</p>
<p>I second this notion^. My uiuc essays were definitely some of my best app essays and i think they helped a lot.</p>

<p>Thanks. I think my essays are great, but none of them says anything about UIUC!!!
I love both my UIUC essays, but my topics didn’t require me to talk about UIUC. One was about a past experience, and one was about my love for Computer Engineering.</p>
<p>Btw, my SAT score is 1410 (R+M) Is that good for UIUC?</p>
<p>That seems Fine</p>

<p>My son was also accepted- College of Media- we are in-state. He was also accepted at Indiana Univ, Univ of Missouri ( Missou) & Univ of Kansas.</p>
<p>How many students does uiuc accepted from the deferred list? I applied priority and got deferred from electrical engineering.</p>
<p>If your official transcripts show a slight variation with the grades in the SRAR , can you be denied at a later stage keeping in mind that originally you were admitted to UIUC.
Thanks !</p>
<p>I mean we’re all human. I’m sure UIUC would’t mind so much if it were 1 grade or something</p>
