<p>Urbana-Champaigne, I take it. This is a tough call. Your ACT score is at the 75th percentile for accepted Freshmen university wide and nearly at the 75th percentile for accepted Freshmen at the B school. Your class rank, though, is well outside the 25th to 75th class rank percentile range (91% to 98%) of accepted Freshman at the B school. That probably explains why you were deferred. Never-the-less, you've certainly got the goods to do well there, your GPA is strong, and they're obviously hesitant to reject a kid with a 31 ACT. I'd say you've got about a 60% chance of being accepted.</p>
<p>thanks! makes me feel a little better. anybody else with any thoughts</p>
<p>If you don't get in, apply for the summer term, or next spring, in some obscure major like Indo-European Languages, matriculate, then transfer to business.</p>
<p>thanks for the suggestion!</p>
<p>didn't your mom make a thread a couple hours ago? lol</p>
<p>Anyway like I said in the other I think you have a good chance</p>
<p>ya she did. i think she is as crazy and paranoid as me</p>
<p>anyone else?</p>
<p>I'm surprised about the deferral. However, class rank may have been the reason why.</p>
<p>You have a good chance to get in off the wait-list. However, apply to the generic liberal arts portion of UIUC and just transfer in to the B-school later on if you can.</p>
<p>i hope so, i did check the general studies</p>
<p>186 views and minimal responses? Please guys help me out here.</p>
