Transfer to U of I

<p>I'm currently undecided in UIC right now and i wanted to transfer to U of I because of their top engineering program. My GPA is 3.65 and I have all A's in my science, math, and physics classes. What are my chances of getting in U of I? and is it better for me to declare my major in UIC and then transfer in between its engineering college or stay undecided?</p>

<p>i dont think it matters if you decalre a major or not…but U of I engineering is extremly difficult to get into and even harder to transfer into.</p>

<p>its gonna be tough…good luck</p>

<p>It is way, way easier for you to transfer into UIC’s College of Engineering, assuming you meet all the transfer requirements. UIC Engineering is not a bad college. It is in the shadow of UIUC’s programs. We get a lot of good quality people who either did not want to or could not go to UIUC.</p>

<p>yeah, I will probably get into UIC’s college of engineering, that’s what my counselor said. I don’t know if it’s easier to transfer undecided or transfer with a declared a major?</p>

<p>Well since you are coming from UIC and it is in the University of Illinois system, you automatically have priority over any other applicant not applying from UIC.</p>

<p>UIC students will get second priority when trying to transfer to UIS or UIUC. First priority will go to current students of that campus.</p>

<p>should i declare my major though? or stay undecided? would it matter?</p>

<p>i have the same question about whats better: undecided or declared major???!!!</p>
