Waitlist thread for UIUC class of 2024
My DS is also waitlisted. Is there any chance?
Son just received an offer for a spot in his first major choice (engineering) - he had been offered his 2nd choice. Not much different than waitlist I would think.
@25Raider
I mean he received both? First choice and second?
His first choice was engineering. He was accepted during regular decision but not for engineering- they offered a spot for chemistry - his second choice. We figured UIUC is out of the mix because he really wants engineering. We received an email today offering a spot in engineering. We had not reached out to UIUC at all.
Same thing happened with my son. He was offered his second choice EE during the RD time. Yesterday he received a notification that he has been admitted to CS which is his first choice.
Ours is rejected to his first choice which was CS, waitlisted for second choice which is Comp Eng. Does he have a shot? We are OOS . So worried.
My son also got into CS from the waitlist.
Today?
OOS ?
Anyone waitlisted received an offer for a spot recently?
@tenseMom from what I see online there was only one wave before May 1st for waitlisted Eng students
Will there be another one soon? June 1st maybe?
I hope so, seeing that p much every college has used the waitlist I think uiuc will need to for its colleges other than eng
Did you hear back on UIUC waitlist for CS + X majors?
Anyone heard anything?
I’m on the waitlist for a CS+X major and haven’t heard anything back since late April. I was on the waitlist for CS in Purdue since the same time and was given my rejection letter recently on June 12. So, I believe that UIUC is just extending the wait-list period only due to the uncertain times and that the decision on the application has already been made (most likely a rejection).
Did anyone hear about waitlist for CS? If UIUC has decided on rejections, I would appreciate knowing that instead of being left in a limbo.
My child called and they told him to wait till June 30th
Thank you!
My son just got a regret email from UIUC saying that all their spots in College of Engineering are filled. He had listed CS as his major of choice,
