What does UIUC take to get in?

<p>For DGS, what would be a shoe in? Please don't tell me a 4.0, 36 ACT and a 2400 SAT.. would someone say with a 3.5 and a 28-30 ACT get in?</p>

<p>The middle 50% range for 2011 admittees to DGS was 25-30. The middle 50% class rank range was 79% - 92% (this means, basically, the percentile - 79th to 92nd).</p>

<p>So if you’re in the top fifth of your class, with a 28 ACT, you’d be a strong candidate. Write a great essay, and you’re a likely admit, I would think.</p>
