<p>I’m so excited to hear back, though on my myIllini dashboard the major listed under my name is my alternate major. Anyone have an idea of what this could mean?</p>

<p>I’m so fricking anxious!!!</p>

<p>All this waiting is killing me</p>

<p>All this waiting is killing me too haha. I’ve been having a really hard time guessing my chances of getting since I’m an international applicant (Canada) and can’t really find a proper way to convert my grades to GPA/find SAT requirements for international applicants. Good luck everyone, next week is going to be a looonnngggg week.</p>

<p>I hope I get in! I applied to CS!
I have a 3.85 UW GPA and a 35 ACT</p>

<p>I like how we get the results on Friday the 13th.
I’m not superstitious, but, I’m a little stitious.</p>

<p>@outonalimb
Haha! Good luck to you.</p>

<p>so nervous!! It says my decision will be posted at 4pm CST— does that mean 5pm if I’m from Florida?</p>

<p>@collegebound1419</p>

<p>Yup, it should be 5pm eastern time. Although I’ve heard from past years that you should login at least an hour before that and keep the page open. This way when decision release time comes, all you need to do is refresh. There’s usually a huge overload on the servers at 5pm and sometimes it won’t let you log in.</p>

<p>anyone else have their second chosen major listed on the dashboard?</p>

<p>Mine lists my first chosen major.</p>

<p>Ugh. I NEED TO KNOW. NOWWW!</p>

<p>Mine lists my first choice too.</p>

<p>Student129, mine shows my second major as I said in my earlier reply. I looked on older CC posts and one person said its usually an indicator that you’re being considered for your second major because yours stats were weak compared to other applicants in the major. Don’t want to give false information so take that with a grain of salt.</p>

<p>Can you post the thread URL with that kind of information karimcheese about the alternate major thing.</p>

<p>For nrperez - <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-illinois-urbana-champaign/1088984-major-changed-my-second-choice.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-illinois-urbana-champaign/1088984-major-changed-my-second-choice.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Just a few more days to go. </p>

<p>I’m so excited that I keep checking this thread for no reason! UIUC will be the first school to notify me. I like it very much though it’s not my first choice. (But I don’t think my first choice will take me…) So I really count on this school. </p>

<p>Good luck to everyone! :)</p>

<p>Well, I wonder if it is showing your first-choice that is also a good sign?</p>

<p>From what I’ve read, it seems that if your major doesn’t disappears, it means you have been deferred. If your major does disappears then it means you were either accepted or rejected. However I think majors don’t start disappearing until the decisions have been uploaded online. I would take it with a grain of salt though as this sort of thing isn’t official, just a general message that I’ve seen people post in other threads.</p>
