idk i'm not a server mod lol
me and firestar cant team up in urbana champaign and create a tech startup, dropping out of school in junior year
ask carly she probably made it 5 min
@pure spire
Slow mode
dw me
big sad
oh cringe
wait no
cringe school
L
this is my first time joining this channel😭forgor I applied here
forgor time
No
My dog stepped on a bee
best of luck to everyone
it came out natalie
when did it come out
i have to pee
it cam eout 30 min ago
do we know oos acceptance rate
oh nice
0
lmao
OH LMFAO i didnt know sorry
+= 100
I can see
but congrats to everyone who got in!!
bahaha all g
Mailed them
and those who didn't, uiuc is a shitty school and is stingy w aid so u didn't miss out
lets see what happens
just let me be
shitty school oof
i like to go weeeeeeeeeeee
if they allow a reconsideration at CS+Stat
you need to let go of your acceptance to appeal for your first choice major.
honestly it's not a horrible school but i am bitter over no aid so 😭
bahah no thats fair
u never know
waitlisted ✌️😔
I'm considering appealing to stats as third major. is stats usually overenrolled or not?
well, "ok"
what's the least competitive/most empty major in LAS related to math/cs/stats?
or should I just do IS
uiuc aint that good
hmm dont do IS unless you know what it is
...
only good for cs is copium
i mean ranking wise
...
copium
ece is also #4
fr uiuc is only good for compeng and cs?
bio eng is top 5
I literally don't have a single acceptance rn. I'd rather shoot my shot at getting in for cartoon science or some shit and then transferring 😭
our medical engr program is only one in the US i believe
some physics is number 1 here
our agricultural is obviously god lol
does anyone know acceptance rate for oos cs 🥲 was waitlisted
who else has a soybean plant
like 2%
mech eng is like top 5
for obvious reasons 💀
grad only
imo, the untested design of IS program + the stigma around "cs wannabees" are different issues and neither help
agri and bio eng is great and is ACES
electrical eng is like t5
holy
it’s probably below 5%, so don’t feel bad
ee is #5
thank u.. i hv ut cs so it's ok i was just curious
congratsa!
WOOO NICE
also civil is top tier
Yooo congrats gang
wish I had figured out the financial stuff early and just done EA instead 😔
How good are waitlisted odds
thought a gap year is where the regrets would end. apparently not.
undergrad rankings
congrats
this is outdated even
cause ee and ce are wrong
this is also just for grainger right
Wow Civil is really good
imagine not being #1
Whats neural eng ranked
yeah idk where the rest would be
also in state people, this is COA for 2023-2024
yeah
oh god
it sucks
i should get an ubrer
50k COA gang
from my perception, yes
its not upenn but we do fine
...
does anyone know
...
bruh
uiuc is solid for business
i refuse to answer
what the graduation requirement is
uiuc business isnt bad at all btw
any CS transfer, watilist, or garb Qs sorry
?
its not ranked as high as some other schools
SAME LETS GO
like will uiuc rescind for a 3.0 UW
but its also business it doesnt matter too much
o hell naw ur good (imo)
I got deferred -> denied 😞
my perception is we arent trying to find an excuse to rescind
theyre rooting for you to stay, u gotta really messup:/
isnt cs transfer banned anyways
grainger cs yes
gotcha
i swear we should have an online bachelors
Anyone get in for cs+stats?
How new this policy
last 2 years ish?
ik a new grad who trasnferrred
it was there before me
So only way to get pure cs is just admitted
yes
No transfer
yes
From out of school?
what about cs + x
yes
...
Rip
Can transfer
Comp sci
just halt half the server to a gtrind
ALL REGEX OF COMPUTER SCIENCE OR SUBSET PERMUTATIONS
what about crop science
What about cat science
YOU CANNOT TRANSFER INTO CS AT UIUC, ONLY FIRST YEARS ARE ADMITTTED. YOU CANNOT TRANSFER FROM OTHER COLLEGES OR FROM A UIUC MAJOR TO CS. ONLY CS + X CAN BE TRANSFERRED INTO @solar portal pin this?
carle
chat gpt confirmed
This is the uiuc thread
this is why uiuc >

yeah it comes out later
or just like that “you’re an illini” thing
pls
i got trader joe snacks
trader joe's goes so hard
:o
what if i doordash a poor soul
anyone know how many ppl get off waitlist at uiuc
between [0, inf)
still going
I haven’t been in my room for 3 hours
R
Each year varies
there could be negative you don't know
gg
basically rejected then lol
latex go brr
if youre including 0 then N_0 right?
🙏
gaming
yes
welcome to hell
Damn what’s wrong w UIUC
prepare to get ur low level programming beating
anyone else get in for business undeclared?
low level is fun wdym
why's getting into hell that tough
operating systems my beloved
bye
not low enough
gotta allocate ur own mem gang
u r the segfault
that's what you do in os design
or that's what I've done on my own for fun
I've rolled my own allocators it's fun
doug lea time
Flashbacks to assembly
imma just do my hjigh level programming lke a spoiled child
Bitch
wait so where might i be able to find my real acceptance letter
online
is it on the portal
A RED CIRCLE
Uic irrelevant
i aint gettin any merit scholarships 💀
U of I is short for uiuc supposedly
so do the bullets spraying everywhere
Lol UIC is the one that's actually generous with scholarships, especially in state
it's not that bad
They gave me a full ride + 8k, meanwhile uiuc gave me like 6k
i forgot to submit fafsa to uiuc
full tuition + 8k?
gotta do that
or
Anyone know the acceptance rate for information science + data science
chad
Fr
I saw that final cost for uiuc
It immediately flew off my list
Denied 😀
Like i have to pay 27k yearly
am i waitlisted for first choice cuz it doesnt say anything on my portal but the admissions faq says ur waitlisted first choice if you get in second choice
Not yet
Thx
It will come out later
yes someone please answer this 😭
Now I need to to go tour but UIUC spring break is the same days as my school’s break
is it gonna be possible to do an ict into cs+physics next year
oh it's out hold up
When is uiuc’s spring break?
had a power outage and i've been trying to get my pc working i forgot uiuc was out
denied rip
Is there a uiuc 27 gc or disc
March 11-19
Jesus
my Canadian friend got into grainger cs rd
That’s fucking extreme difficulty
nice
should i try to switch to cs + x
i didn't get into cs + math
but i got into information science
how difficult is transfering to cs + x?
got in for ee but thats not exactly my passion ngl
les go???
man fuck UIUC
Fr bro
yeah check #✨-celebration-station
no
just go somewhere where you got cs
u can transfer to CE
pretty easily
did you get accepted?
it said my first choice when i got waitlisted
u had to click on the waitlist button
Just saw above, congrats!
I got admitted for my second choice tho
oh
idk
maybe u got rejected from ur first choice if u got accepted for ur second
thanks
should've named it UIUClassico
btw
the data sceince programs here
are pretty dogshit
dont recommend going here for any info or ds major
ohh i didnt know that
i wonder why i was waitlisted for my first choice but wasnt admitted for my 2nd choice
maybe its bc im oos idk
i think it goes:
first major accept -> first major waitlist -> first major reject -> second major accept -> second major reject -> reject
oh okay thanks
wb like cs+ majors? or stats + cs?
Ngl that place is kinda weird
why’s that?
yeah but its gonna be harder than transfering to ce cuz youre already in ece department
i know a guy like that at uiuc, hes a math major and made use of all the cs opportunities
@tender matrix do you think I’d be able to transfer into cs+physics next year
70% acceptance rate lmao
then yea probably lol
LMAO
Do a stat minor
has anyone ever gotten into info then double majored in cs
Nononono not that
smart
I would give it a shot
Too late I already internalized it
Stats minor is basically DS here
You do some DS classes
Hence OP stat and cs
It might be competitive
You can't do that
you cant do that
You have to get in for CS then do info
For IS majors try to transfer to CS + x tho
is info any good tho? Like can u still get a job and all with it
Lol
It's not CS
tbh
Know what it is
Yea it's far less work than CS
My roommates an IS major and all he does is play video games
xd
is+ds seems promising
Not really
nah I’m just curious. I got in MSE anyways
They don't take calc 2
Nor any pure stats classes
so
the whole A- GPA thing is scary tho. I’m used to a 90 being an A💀
To me it's a very underdeveloped program
I feel like the ischool tries to scam people into getting into it
It has way too many leaking patches rn for a DS major
Purdue DS takes calc 3
IS + DS doesn't even take calc 2
Nor stats
Tbh my personal belief is that if you wanna do DS at uiuc, do a stat major with a CS minor
I agree
We have some cracked ass DS classes in the stat dept
Like deep learning
Statistical learning
Survival analysis
Database systems
Etc
31 votes and 15 comments so far on Reddit
My recommendation is
If you wanna do CS
And you got IS here
Don't come
The way IS major is rn seems more like a social science major
Below 5%
wtf really????
yo if u don’t mind what were ur stats?
Nah
what is acceptance rate
for DS at uiuc
It's not a major here
IS+DS?
They have a DS + X program
The IS acceptance rate is 68%
So I assume IS + DS isn't too far off
Thoughts on cs + advertising?
It's a good major
how are job prospects in comparison to pure cs
Cool
That's for CS+X in state iirc
or maybe combined
I forget
Yep
Yes
CS + x transfer will be hard
Everyone and their mom wants to transfer to CS + stats here
And they'll only take like 5 people
Or smth
Dawg
So don't bet on transferring in
When am i going to get mine i need an ego boost after clemson denied me ;-;
everyone i talked to says it isnt that hard to switch to cs + stats if youre meeting requirements 
For this year it's gonna be different
Cause CS transfers are blocked
they been blocked
This is the first year you can only switch to cs + x
Nah
The first set of transfer apps got sent in
For only CS + x
The website states since 2022 you can't switch into cs
😩
man I’m seriously so hyped that I got in
Because the way transfer works
Is that you need approval from the CS dept
And the other dept
If ur already in cs
You got approval
Or at least much easier to get approval
So yes switching between cs + x is quite easy but you do still need to make the reqs
oki
😳
what is cs+adv
cs + advertising
It's a competitive world
You gotta do what you gotta do
?
To get skills find job etc
that’s so cool uiuc has so many cool cs + x
also cs + advertising is more advertising heavy than id like
like crop sciences
yeah and what's +stats gonna do over +adv
that’s so cool
More generalized
and astro that would have been my 2nd choice behind MatSE
yea astro is sick
not good I have look 1420 sat 3.3 uw gpa 3.9 w I think my ec's prob carried and the reason why I wanted to do information science
im tired of people sticking everything to their major or college or whatnot
some stats classes hella useful
in the cs + stats curriculum
like
cs446 counts towards your degree
but not for advertising
I’m tired of people simping over t20s
cs 446 and 481 sound cool
Stats is very relevant in CS
hot take: cs is the best and worst thing about this school
I agree
yea
whys it the worst thing?
Same with hard math depending on the track
just be chill and ride it out
CS + meth
cs + weed
CS + bitches
cs is like 70% male
Impossible major
at uiuc
CS is weed
They got weeder classes everywhere
yeah
I would Lowkey be interested in CS + food science tho
Cause of all the food classes they would have
They make French fries in one of the food science classes
cs + weed(er classes) = business
I fell like uiuc got a lot of clout as an out of state student though its is
Fr
cs + physics super cool tho
Hmm not sure
Gonna be working for McDonalds computer systems when I grow up 
what clout
like if i tell someone at my school i got into uiuc they'd think i am smart af
thers 0 clout
FR
lol
Opposite for me
Everyone clowned on me for coming here
wtf
thuis guy dumb as fuck
And Lowkey passive aggressive LOL
Saying I was going to a shitty state school
And all
Welp
LOL
overglorified, overrated, and made to seem like the end all be all of everything for a lot of people
thats what people say about rutgers in my state because half the school goes there
but uiuc only extremely smart engineering/cs kids go there
In the end it's fine
so its seen as prestigous
None of my hs classmates that clown on me have internships over summer

Getting the last laugh is satisfying
🔥
neither do i lol
You have a spring one tho
Research maybe?
ig i manifest a return offer and stay in chambana
Honestly this year sucks for job finding
ugh i should condider ncsa
REU 😔
but... would i take them over what i have now?
gotta perform well for spring ig
i apply to resaerch park
Yea
Don't just apply research park
yea
good idea but keep in mind they keep hiring through spring
don't sell yourself too early
Send out 100 before nov
even small tech
And you'll have a good chance
uhhh idk about good chance lol
im applying
i don't have good stats
Well a better than nothing chance I suppose
worse than most people here
spend ur time with RP they're very friendly towards uiuc kids
What is RP btw
and frankly good places to work
lol
Ftw
i just want to getg a part time internship in rp
so i can get some money for apartment
That took me so long to get
oh
how many ppl got in lingcs
ehh
Ling CS is cool
yea cs + ling is sick
I'm honorary ling cs
if you go to resarch park is it easy to get a freshman internship?
Bruh my schedule literally is ling CS here
It's ok
~$15/hr after tax for 15 weeks?
it is
would they take an IS major
why wouldn't
for swe
Depends on ur past experience
^^
Different schools want different personalities
point is don't let IS (or any major) stop you from setting yourself up for something else
if anything, take advantage of that it does offer (even if v little)
Altho if u wanna doore techy stuff I highly recommend a CS minor with the IS major
i thought i had a chance at Spotify but ig not lol
the cs minor at uiuc is rlly good
Damn Spotify
yes, but it's balls hard
our minor is cracked
Free subscription????
lol
but so difficult imo
It will be hard
they're still ironing out the 128 through 225 sequence
way better than otehr school
and it's gonna be a shame for those that get turned off by 128
MCS thing too
right
I already know so many that dropped 😔
ik challen complains that so many do well in 124 but we don't have the space for them to continue
Sorry I say this to an UIUC undergrad, but I feel like rutgers even though its a slightly worse school might be better from me since its 20k cheaper per year and I can do computer science. I feel like doing infomation science is a bit too risky.
128 is a whole separate beast
fair but i don't think ppl are meant to learn perfectly
No go to rutgers
yea go to rutgers
If you wanna do CS go rutgers
is at uiuc is shit
It's a good school for CS
if you want CS go somewhere else
And cheaper
rutgers is beyond fine
Rutgers is in a nice area too
beyond
Iirc
rutgers research pubs go brr
ok
Take the cheaper option too
ye
Save yourself some stress over money
ik ppl r like you can make the money back
but a) not necessarily that quickly/easily
b) still less immediate strain
Implicature moment
but then i said to myself
I'll probably regret not choosing music as part of my degree for the rest of my early life
fought way too hard for it
@tired robin interested to know but what do you think is bad about UIUC?
so here we are
i made a massive drop somewhrre
search up, uh, "boba shops"
lol
Lowkey music is cool
If I had more time would love to take those audio processing classes
Man I wanna learn the electric guitar too
mus 205 (though our X05 curriculum is undergoing major changes, idk what content will be like)
Oh
Damn ok if I have extra time
I will take
Always wanted to learn how to make digital music too
audio computing lab, basically SW and applied math related stuff on audio and music. I've seen HRTF, noise cancellation, etc
music app dev in C++. more like a tutorial for JUCE but introduces MIDI with basic multi threading, etc
if you wanna be hella niche, theres MUS 499C which is audio coding. SuperCollider is a lang and server runtime (i think) where you can do live audio synthesis beyond DAW capabilities
Woah MIDI
Wait can I take that as a non music major??
uhh
not sure but i don't think the prof who teaches it will gatekeep
to be fair, it's all recorded
Ah I see
YouTube: eli fieldsteel
Sheesh
any playlist will do
Yea that's hella cool then
ik we're trying to make some of our music tech more accessible, in particular for game studies and design minor students
which includes a really cool set of MUS 407-409
acoustic techniques and such
Ohh interesting
we have straight up beatmaking in MUS 499BT, highly recommend despite it being work. we invite pro guests quite often to speak
yeah, one beat a week i think
Oh wow that is a lot
crazy how ppl will clown on u for going to uiuc but everyone i met seems so smart
Man I rly wanna take computational photography
ignore
oooo there's some fun computer vision
Maybe shud drop a minor 💀
what's the minir
Deep learning for comp vision
triple minor💀
ur stats + cs right
Yee
drop the math imo
Although alternatively I do my gen eds over summer
And then make time for those classes
Cause I'm missing half my gen eds almost
feel better taking two adv math for a minor or taking two crazy other courses
Ugh true
damn whyd i get waitlisted
Expect I do wanna take numerical analysis which is part of the math minor
make sure you prioritize geneds that satisfy 2+ categories
Leaving one extra class for the math minor
idk:(
Ling 250 😎
i believe so, pls confirm with advisor
make it hella clear on DARS audit
it probably will but i believe some cs+m students refused the game studies minor bc we couldn't double count our major courses? i could be very badly informed
Oh huh
Shit ok Ill need to schedule an appointment soon then
Rip illini hall 😭
Could've gone there for advising
But gotta drag my ass up to CAB
where do they house stats faculty now
CAB
where that
That's where math dept moving too
Next to CIF
doesnt matter enough
Im trynna switch to cs + math, i hated statistics LMAO
any bum can get an A in stat400
