<p>Chances for University of Illinois Urbana Champaign </p>

<p>Have taken 5 AP'S classes and 6 Honors classes in high school
Freshman GPA-3.5 first semester 3.6 second semester
Sophomore GPA-3.6 both semesters
Junior GPA 4.16 first semester and 4.33 second semester </p>

<p>Have many extra curricular activities. Also my essays were really good. And two of my brothers go to the school already. Also applied priority. What are my chances?</p>

<p>Unless you have absolutely no idea what program of study you’d like to take, do not apply directly to DGS. If you apply to a program, and get accepted, then great. If you are not accepted, you are automatically considered for DGS, and there is no penalty for attempting to directly get into a program first.</p>

<p>Since you haven’t, if you do get accepted, you’ll have to have the grades to transfer later. That’s not a problem really, but it adds an element of uncertainty to your college career.</p>

<p>Having said all that, your GPA looks good, but your ACT is low, as is your class rank. I’d have to say it’s a reach, but you made the right move trying. You would otherwise never know. Good luck.</p>

<p>I hope I get in. It’s my number 1 school. I know some kids who got in with a 21 and 22. Hopefully I can be one of those lucky kids accepted.</p>

<p>I don’t think you’re a reach, especially for DGS. You’re good!</p>

<p>Thank you guys. Means a lot.</p>

<p>I was accepted!!!</p>

<p>Congratulations!</p>
