UIUC out of state applicant!

Colleges and Universities A-Z Cornell University

<p>I was wondering if I should try to apply to UIUC engineering, I know it's late but If I have even 15%> chance I would still apply. The reason I didn't apply in the first place is that it only accepts less than 10% out of state applicants? But from reading these forums it seems like everyone is getting accepted. If I could just get some feedback, preferably fast since the deadline is kind of tommorow midnight, I would appreciate it thanks. My stats are:
SAT: 710 math; 630 verbal
ACT: 34 math; 34 english, 26 science and reading
NM Commended;
ECs: average(Networking Admin for Computer Club, Science Bowl Varsity, Engineering Competition 2nd place, NHS, etc...- I am very math and computer oriented)
APs: USHist 3, Eng Lang 4
gpa: 3.8
class rank: 51/430
IB certificate in Calculus BC and English 4; taking hardest possible curriculum</p>

<p>Also, do I even have 10%> chance at Cornell engineering? I doubt it.</p>

<p>I got into Cornell engineering with fairly same statistics, except my english was horrible and my science was pretty good onmy ACT. Just give it a shot.</p>

<p>how did u get an IB certificate in an AP course? but other than that i'd say u have a shot, you've got nothing to lose exept sum cash. Good luck!</p>
