***Official UIUC Class of 2019 Applicant Thread***

Lets not try and find meaning at any changes we see. I know its been a long wait, but only another 10 days and we will find out. Wishing everyone good luck.

My D’s (SF Bay area) also changed from Nicole Turner ) to Laura Lavender

Hey guys!
Can anyone chance me for electrical engineering or CS engineering? I am in state.
GPA : 4.74
ACT Math : 36
ACT Science : 35
Composite is 35
SAT Math : 790
SAT CR : 780
SAT W : 790

Had an engineering internship, taken 11 AP’s, played tennis fresh/soph, track my junior year. Not much other EC’s.

My D was accepted to engineering from LAS. She never was interested in engineering until she got there. She transferred with no issue. She had a 4.0 but knows another kid who had a 3.8 and transferred to mechanical engineering. Even from Chemical Engineering in LAS if you change majors from an LAS major you must get permission from the engineering department. I guess some kids drop out and quite a few change majors, she knows 2 that moved over to the business school. Her professor said spots open up because of this and they do take highly qualified transfers. She had only a 26 in math on her ACT but she did ace all her classes in college. So I guess with hard work it is not that big of deal.

I have a D at UIUC and one waiting like everyone else for admission. ACES is where my second D applies. ACES is the easiest school to get into. I would not read into anything regarding online activity. The school is quite sophisticated with well computer engineering and would never be so silly to put out any teases of admissions.

@mactireomd023‌ I wish I had those stats. Nice job, there’s no way you couldn’t get in unless there was a problem somewhere else. What was your first choice major?

Eight days. I’m so scared!!! Really terrified. Do you guys know if the decisions will be posted right at 12AM next Friday?

@carls2015 I don’t think they would post it at 12AM. Has anyone emailed their counselor or called the admissions office?

@emshadez‌ about timing?

You will be emailed after 4pm on the 13th, with instructions to check your myIllini account. Your decision will be posted online, not in the email.

they post decisions at 4pm central time

Okay what was the thing about the admissions counselors changing? Mine says there is no longer a counselor in my area yet its been the same admissions counselor all along… What does this mean that mine got removed?

We never even set our profile up. :smile:

@carls2015 I really don’t think it means anything. We are in central Illinois. My son used to have Caroline Ewing listed. Now he doesn’t have one. I looked her up on the Illinois website, and she has a different job within the university.

Is the Econ competitive in UIUC? I didn’t send in my last December SAT Score (super good), thinking that the UIUC is my safety…But now I’m getting worried! Please take a have a look at the stats to see if I will make it to UIUC ECON!
