Over qualified but rejected from desired major at University of Illinois

Total non-residents make up almost 27% (undergrad), and the school has made it clear they don’t want it any higher, at least for now. This is about 60/40 international/domestic.The CS dept has fewer IL residents %age-wise than any other dept, but this is a function of the applicant pool.

I’m actually surprised they don’t do more of this.

Incoming non-residents avg higher stats than residents in the CS dept as well as the school as a whole. If it were strictly stats based, the dept would have even fewer IL residents, as would the school.

:frowning: - This is subjective, but the campus is beautiful IMO…

Well, at least Business Insider agrees with me…
