that was true for early might not be true for rd

[raw tree]

what stats

[visual scaffold]

does uiuc do the thing where you get into the university but not into your major (computer science )

[raw tree]

second major?

[blazing sand]

I think only if you chose a second choice

[timid island]

They consider you for your second choice major but then also they might give you an alternate major

[visual scaffold]

i did, it was computer engineering i think

so doesnt really help that much

[timid island]

Computer engineering isn’t available as a second choice

[visual scaffold]

mustve been electrical engineering then ?

[glad latch]

at least one more hour

good luck

[patent sundial]

Probably

[patent sundial]

Wtf is pell

[thorny tree]

I dont understand a thing in the US: why are state or govt schools costlier than private?

[vapid marsh]

do u think like getting a shared flat with someone will defo decrease the cost.. bc im int and yea my parents hv enough income for me not to receive fin aid but my brother goes to an international skl and it costs shit tons for both of us so idk

[thorny tree]

shouldnt private be the ones profitting?

and govt providing?

[sterile cipher]

Like the federal pell grant idk it should have said it on your fafsa

[static pulsar]

Hi

Good evening

[vapid marsh]

they said they will hv to think abt those private unis like nyu etc so i hv no idea whatever

[strong fox]

Hello

[vapid marsh]

[tidal parcel]

Because they serve the state's residents

not out of state or international people

[thorny tree]

[strong fox]

I guess I’ll chill here for the next hour to calm nerves

[strong fox]

Good luck everyone

[thorny tree]

GETTING REJECTED

😭

[strong fox]

Uhhh

Lemme get on pc

[patent sundial]

We all are…

[thorny tree]

i know i will be rejected

[strong fox]

So I can type

[deep frigate]

acceptances come like half an hour earlier i heard?

[static pulsar]

Im worried abt not getting accepted somewhere id be happy with

Ngl

I have two safeties rn but i wouldnt be happy

So ig im privileged

[thorny tree]

thank you

[steady pumice]

As a college student, I 100% get that this may not be helpful to hear, but you really will be okay no matter the result. It may hurt a lot to get denied from U of I, and it is 100% okay if it hurts and you miss the idea of what it could have been and the life it could have lead you. But I just want you to know U of I's loss will be another place's gain.

[static pulsar]

But still a worry

[patent sundial]

Which ?

[sterile cipher]

Probably, u mean like not getting the college housing?

[strong fox]

you guys know UIUC was my last choice

i ended up here

[static pulsar]

Suny bing and rit (instate ny)

[strong fox]

and i LOVE IT

[thorny tree]

🫂

[sterile cipher]

I think apartments in uiuc area are kinda crazy tho

[thorny tree]

thanks man

[vapid marsh]

yea..

[strong fox]

safeties will still be fun

[steady pumice]

No problem, and good luck.

[strong fox]

any school you go to you will enjoy

[static pulsar]

Uiuc dropped on my list cuz the average class size ngl

[strong fox]

i am willing to bet money even safeties will be enjoyable

[lilac nest]

uiuc comp eng was your safety?

[steady pumice]

Also I agree. As long as you find the school a good fit, you'll likely have a good time and meet cool people.

[static pulsar]

Isnt it fairly large?

[vapid marsh]

bc college housing is expensive asf but idk how independent living cost would be ugh

[tidal parcel]

I dont think thats quite helpful advice to be telling people scared of a uiuc rejection

[strong fox]

its not my safety

[sterile cipher]

Prob yeah but ig people are willing to accept that at these top cs publics

[paper tapir]

youre more likely to enjoy a safety that fits you well than a reach that doesnt

[static pulsar]

Ty for the notes <3 yea ill try to paint things more positively

[static pulsar]

Makes sense

[strong fox]

my point is theres going to be a school yo udo get into, even if its not your number 11

[static pulsar]

J would be weird for me to learn physics and engineering via lecture

[strong fox]

at the end of the day your education place doesnt matter, its how you utilize it

[tired robin]

^^^^

[lilac nest]

oh i was about to say

[sterile cipher]

It does matter to me. T20 OR BUST

[paper tapir]

the school doesnt make the student

[strong fox]

any time

[tidal parcel]

yeah, but this being said by someone at a t5 vs a t100 is different

[tired robin]

is it snowing and winding 40MPH rn

[static pulsar]

Pls ur username

[patent sundial]

[strong fox]

uiuc wasnt my safety, i just didnt wanna go here for other reasons

[steady pumice]

I also second that you never know who your friends will be!

[static pulsar]

Uiuc is public right?

[strong fox]

you will make the best out of every college yo ugo to with a good mindset

uiuc is public

[static pulsar]

So it prioritizes instate

[tired robin]

public static void main

[steady pumice]

At my former university before I transferred, I was in put a dorm I really didn't want to be in, and none of us knew each other.

[strong fox]

It heavily does

[static pulsar]

Kk

[steady pumice]

We all ended up being really close during our time together.

[static pulsar]

Ty

[steady pumice]

Sometimes life is funny, and things happen so unexpectedly.

[strong fox]

UIUC also prioritizes gender equality somewhat

and disabilities

so its nic
