***OFFICIAL UIUC CLASS OF 2021 ADMISSIONS THREAD****

apparently not many people applied ea this year since this forum is so inactive

Mee

@nikkimj86 I live in New Jersey and we barely get any snow we only get one big storm a year.

or the inactive is deceiving…

Hopefully not

I applied this as a backup school, but found out CS is competitive. Good luck Y’all

@madman1923 What Jersey do you live in? If you live in South Jersey then that makes sense but up here in North Jersey we get snow all the time lol…

@smi1234 I live in central Jersey in mercer county.

@elay1202 I assume you are a girl applying to COE CS?

I know some EA schools only accept or defer, some accept/defer/deny, and some only accept/deny…

Does anyone know what the policy is for UIUC, considering it’s a relatively new EA program? Good luck to everyone!

Is it true that the acceptance rate for CS is around 5%?

@nikkimj86 I’m from PA.

@elay1202 I think a lot of people applied EA…maybe they’re not worried?

Supposedly 7.5%, and if factoring in yield rate, should be 15%

@cantwait2beeover yesss!

Yeah around that

@Littlebigboy that is correct CS in COE takes about 200 out of a pool of about 4000 to 4500.

@ciancija UIUC will let you know one of three things admit/deny/defer, for the last one they will consider you with the entire pool of applicants not just the EA.

@pray1974 Thank you!

And, one more general question to all - are those admitted into the honors program also informed today, or is that a later date?

Just around 30 minutes…
