Major?
me personally psu but that's cause i didn't even consider rutgers
Psu is good
i hope so iβm in state ππΎ
like
But I do think grainger acceptance rates have a very high variance compared to gies
In middle of nowhere
bro's rethinking his whole life
yeah def
i mean cs is like 7.2
some majors are 20
some are 55
No
Its undergrad engi is t20
im kinda cooked
Psu is great for engi
yeah
just go to one of the UCs if you care about ranking
but people look at overall ranked
yeah if they fucking take me
So am i
ucdavis accepts everyone
I applied
Damn tf
it's probably the most op exploit so far
and likely gonna be easier once the deportations start happening

YESSSS
Anything for gud college 
content creator to Berklee

just giving facts
Anyone here know how hard it is to transfer within Engineering non-CS to non-CS
if ur already in grainger yeah it's easy
and do you know if you can get this done before going to campus/in first weeks of start of school?
no you need to take the relevant coursework and get good grades
I believe rutgers location and price is simply worth over the undergrad ranking
Maybe for grad school it matters
Undergrad maybe not
@visual heron
if you try to change it now it's essentially reapplying and I wouldn't recommend talking the risk
I mean I can legit ap out of every freshman class
AP don't cover the necessary courses
and usually people transfer at best the start of their second year
and they also recommend additional courses in addition to the required coursework
I've taken physics Cs, BC, and college CS (300 level at SUNY Stony Brook)
All 5s
plus chem rn
Iβve ap for all of these, and my school has gotten a ton of students out of calculus 3 with their multivariable calculus class
yeah, took bc as sophomore as well

even if you still officially change majors at start of year two, youll have engineering and gen ed classes applicable to all majors to work on
chat who got rejected here
which major are you trying to transfer to
Mechanical
I'd probably minor in CS
maybe
ill just go into real estate
ig
another fast way to make bank
no degree required
Guys
Im trying to cope
Is us news undergraduate rankings accurate
If yes
Why is stevens institute of tech so far behind?
Why is stony brook ranking < rutgers
did anyone get in for cs+bioeng
My school has gotten a ton of kids out ofnit with our multi variable calculus class
us news is a kinda subjective ranking based on their methods
i'd just look at the raw stats that matter to you most
Raw stats?
placement rates, income, etc
AP?
Where can i see that
No, just saying those official classes exist in high school
obviously
for income i'd look at the national college scorecard i think it is?
and alot of async CC summer courses offer credits for them anyways
but we are talking about AP
true. although I've taken multi calc so even if I have to take it i'll get a good grade boost
Oh.. alr
rankings are a helpful way of consolidating a lot of stats into one
Oh i need vpn? Damn
you shouldn't?
Not in us rn
ah ok
yeah it's a government site too
yeah i mean you should be fine just that you can't transfer in immediately
If you're interested in completing a major, including a dual degree, in The Grainger College of Engineering, you must apply and be admitted directly into the college at time of transfer. Transfer students entering other colleges on campus are not eligible for later admission/on-campus transfer to Grainger Engineering, including Engineering Undec...
hey guys ; how good is engineering undeclared at uiuc?
depends on which one you end up declaring
yeah. I mean i'll prob be able to, loooking at it after 1st semester which means nothing cause i wouldn't be taking any mechE specfiic classes first semester anyways/
thanks @craggy hazel
well hopefully i get to take electrical
but should i take uiuc eng undec or purdue fye
again if cost is not an issue there's no reason to choose purdue
I mean I have penn state too but ig I just never really vibed w it
i dont either bro
But penn state is now in the running
barley any indians
Wtf
yeah
i might not go uni now
π
if i dont get anything else
why are we UIUC HATER
have fun in appalachia
fuck uiuc
cope
fuck you
what is the difference between engineering mechanics and mechanical engineering?
they are quite similar right?
the mechanics of engineering vs the engineering of mechanics
theory vs application
essentially
i mean you could just checkout the course sequence
gives you a good idea
ok
Check poll
it's still a very high acceptance rate school
I think 30% ar
how?
Click the banner > settings > pinned
gotchu thanks
does anyone here know how good uiuc is for chemistry
mediocre
wb unc
How does gt have double AR of UIUC?
why are you asking this now tho π
wdym
good
according to the numbers
and i like our chem buildings cuz they have a fun tunnel
thats something you would usually ask before applying so you know if its worth applying
woahh thats sick
i applied cuz a friend did xd
fuck uiuc
Backrooms ahh
looks bad
i'd get murdered there
also in the chem library
respectable
the first thing u see when u open the door is a nobel prize
cope
which is kinda crazy
did you get in?
@visual heron what schools r u accepted at?
#1268295948598116373
all state schools prob teach u as well
penn state has less brown people compared to uiuc
I'm freshman cs
penn state, rutgers are my top 2 choices
and everything else just safties
wth thats good already
celebrated for a bit
that's kinda racist but uiuc has alot of cash grab master programs
then a short bit later got GT
congrats
im indian buddy
and now i dont think im considering UIUC anymore
how is this racist???
im preffering indians
thats not really racist
lmao
i just want brown friendgroups
its really not racist
cope
just take the L and go to penn state, if you work hard there, ur guaranteed to transfer to a higher ranked university
maybe uiuc or better
i feel mature now
Wallah chill
nah im not going uni anymore
π
i did not spend 4 years
just to go to a t60 ranked school
dude
um that's a very unwise decision
i could ahve took fucking non ap classes
What are u gonna do trade school?
nah
real estate
fast way to make bank
Do realtors not need uni?
uh im pretty sure you need money to do real estate
if you have a rich family i mean
nah
u just need a license
realtor
my dad buys properties
and flips them anyways
so imma just sell them and get comission
ππΏ
Deferred.
you got rejected from a few schools so now u just not going to college
stupid imo
π π π
how many people got in grainger test optional
yeah
like
idk
like
if im getting rejected liek this
what chance do i stand for ucs and few other ea
π
like
Time to hope on the hopium
what are your safeties
penn and rutgers
and merced
but like merced
hell naw
a&m ghosted me
engineering full anyways
i didnt even get offered a pathway
LOL
nah trust more decisions coming@
hopefully
if the ucs come in clutch bro
this is like the only public one
whats the acceptance rate for cs + something
are there private ones?
or are they closed for legit reasons
like absestos or smth
Fuck uiuc
Nah Rutgers is still solid tho and Penn State for eng
cope
word bro word
rutgers is pretty good
i cant tell the cs+ggis story but itβs so funny man
rejected π
u shoul be glad
same
Same ong
the thing is like majority of those are pre exisiting friend groups
from highschool
its not a fresh start type shi
is anyone here good at java and can help me with hw
bro
Nah I'm done with uiuc I won't apply there for grad school bc they destroyed my heart
real bro
Iβve had no problems making friends despite being out of state.
if you didn't get it, ur just not a fit for the school
buddy
its not that
i said
did u get in?
most of the friendgroups at rutgers
also can aynone help with java hw
middlesex county gotta be the only place in us where the voter ballots are in punjabi and gujurati lol
are carried on from highschool
i'm studying CS here for a year already
did u apply uiuc?
Tell please
I want to know
My point is that Iβm not part of those groups but I still found mine
Only place in all of USA probably
not every oos school is like this bro
but rutgers is
Nah in Dallas they gotta be in Telugu or something ππ
how do you know 
Early applications I went 0/6
@boreal locust
Anything to help me swallow this pill
@visual heron did you only get into Rutgers?
pennn state
are you the guy who has 1590 sat
nvm
Huh
Wait what??
Youβre still in to multiple places man
One school isnβt the end of the world
*three
and 2 of them should have been doable
Yeah
This year is completely different
fucking horrible
Agree
redundant
Iβve gotten deferred from both Purdue and UIUC and many many people said Iβd get into both with ease
what are your 5 acceptances
ts isn't "this"
oh
ts is this
pretty much all safeties
oh
dont worry
got umn and baylor i guess
baylor is amazing bro
Define safety
Some people got uiuc as safety
not sure if umn engineering is a safety
70-80% acceptance rates
THEY ARE FUCKIGN COOEKD
BRO
UIUC IS NOT A SAFTEY
LMAOOOOOOOO
IT IS NOT A SAFTEY
Yeah
To most people
UIUC isnβt a safety, low target at the lowest
isu is a safety
milkyway is not a saftey bro
I mean in state it would be
Humans are so different
honestly
for a non competitive major sure
maybe applications will reduce
Funny
I got rejected
Idk why
In state it could be a safety for certain majors
if aid gets handed out less
ive heard people call UIUC cs a safety π
Yeah
less applicants
It is not
= less compeititon
uiuc is pretty simple for non engineering/cs to get into tho right
It is not.
also gies
for instate maybe
Sciences also isnβt bad
yeah science isnt bad
i want to say instate acceptance rate is 55% so a low target

I guess choosing engineering this year as an average student is just death
yes
yo people thought i was a lock for uiuc cs+ggis given that i had a 1) massive spike in geo and 2) i applied to the smallest cs+x which most people normally dont apply to
i actually believed i had a fighting chance not gonna lie
that sucks, sorry man
it's alright
nothing i can do atp
appealing is useless they wont change their mind
unless i cured cancer
how did your uiuc decision go
@tired basin
i like how uk universities are honest about why they rejected you
us universities should do the same
Fr
I still dont fucking know
Why umn rejected me
It looked like a safety bruh
deferred
tough
eh
I have a good idea on why GT rejected me - I wasnβt nerdy enough. π€
cs+math right?
You gotta stop showering
They probably saw that I took too many unauthorized showers.
Lets see how Gatech RD goes
Abysmal
bloodbath
I take shower daily
So I guess thats why
you got in?
t5 for cs and you don't care?

insane bro
Neither do I
obv I'm so happy for UIUC
ohhh
Uiuc physics >>>>
i misunderstood mb
I got rejected both
Alone coping
π
you'll get in somewhere
I committed here without waiting for a deferred decision
I got UMass,Purdue,UIUC
and CMU defer
π
I fully expected my first rejection today
so happy that I got in
did you cure cancer or what
nah but I did work on detecting allergies and stuff
my ECs are pretty good
+43 IB / 1570 SAT
My uiuc essays were horrible idk how I got in lmao
Damn
yeah congrats
UIUC is still cooked so like
π
I expected nothing
π₯ we balle

everyone here seems to have much better stats than I did
is Gies better than their engineering program in terms of internships?
Guys is UIUC worth it for nuclearE
can i cold email a loci to uiuc ππΎ
for out of state*
i thought they don't take anything
why
js directly shooting a shot into admissions emails or smth
they donβt rlly say anything ab loci
might even hurt
cs?
u think so
shows you can't read/don't follow instructions
just speculating
do any of you guys know how to check aid?
if youre oos does it even show up on the portal
Stats and cs
I mean go ahead and do it
Got into Madison and Maryland so still feeling really happy but kinda surprised by uiuc
madison is huge
Most likely not going to hurt but since they explicitly state not to send anything you shouldnβt send anything
Do they release deferral stats for UIUC?
i dont think so
ive looked a lot
did they release admission stats yet for this year
only thing is their FAQ says that tend to admit 1500-2000 deferred students
How many deferalls yall think this year?
Iβm thinking 8k
A cool 20% acceptance rate for deferred srudents
i hope its 2k students
uiuc my love β€οΈ
uiuc β€οΈ
Yes.
wait thats literally what i meant to say lol
what was oos cs acceptance rate this yr?
0% cus they didn't take my ass
π«
what major did you apply for
probably around 4-5% ?
last year it was 4%
Cs π
better be cracked π
if u dont have a 1550+ 4.0 all APs 3 internships, a research program, business, app with millions+ users, and nonprofit u might not wanna check that portal
it's already decided
false
dude
π
dawg wtf congrats
CONGRATS
I don't have a research program, business, app with millions+ users, and nonprofit and still got UIUC CS
yooo
π
what major?
it's possible guys
Systems engineering and design
W
congrats π₯
Jesuss
multiple internships? leader of some club that goes to intl competitions? girl or urm?
1 paid internship | 1 unpaid
intl comp yes but not ISEF and stuff
not a girl , indian CS

aw man
Dude
Discover unique opportunities at Penn State University Park & World Campus at OrgCentral! Find and attend events, browse and join organizations, and showcase your involvement.
Research the school
Jesus Christ
i think thats how ill be looking like when i open my next rejection
twins
π€
But fine
mohammed, it's not hard
Letβs not start a religious argument
but "jesus christ" isn't?
Itβs a thing people say to express exasperation
ik
doesn't mean its good
bro its gonna befine
Itβs interesting that people use βGodβ, βJesus (jeez)β and βChristβ to express such an emotion, but no other diety. Just an observation.
jesus christ
what r u fighting abt π
what the sigma!
4 FUCKING TESTS
wonder why
one man's tragedy is another man's comedy
the "phrase" originates from countries where christians are in a majority π and they were the ones who created it
dont think there was any bad intent
this isnt not the first time bro
but like
That is interesting
Iβm sure that other languages use their local gods right?
big indian population at uiuc i believe ( i just joined the converesation i don't know what's happening)
you lose all hope bro
YES BRO
IBGS AT UIUC
Did the Romans swear by Jupiter? I believe they did.
any more colleges left?
but no more uiuc for me
just UCs vtech and u dub
and few csus
but the only csu id consider going is slo
other ones r eh
whats a csu
yo theres one in fucking ole miss youre chilling @visual heron just cut your losses and end up at penn state or rutgers if you want even more brown people despite a lower ranked aero program
oh not a uc though
whats ur instate school
am i cooked for RD
are you in cali
ucs and csus
I still donβt know the problem with Penn State.
compared to ucs
Apparently they did Hercules (through a brief search, i may be wrong)
dude youll get into a solid uc
It is interesting tho
like think about a BMW compared to a Toyota
same π
A ton of cultures have similar sayings
UC's? california??bro theres tons of good public colleges there
I do remember translating a Latin passage where the author says effectively βO Jupiter!β
i litearlly applied there
i got in too and it was never high on my list bc i j dont vibe w it but fortunately or unfortunately it is now in the running
did u get in
but ucs are money hungry and accept more oos students than instates
march
Bro the csus are good too
Is IU Kelley or UIUC Gies better for business, specifically accounting?
Cmon
??>..
why did u ask that
DESPITE MY PARENTS PAYING FUCKING STATE TAXES TO DOE
they're gonna save u
TO FUCKING CALI DOE
like genuinely
Try https://discord.com/channels/786557653924708373/954425230896545792 for better help
nah bro if u wanna do business u know IU is better than GIES
yeah
π
iu kelly is top tier for buisness right
nah trust me, they prioritize in state more
idk i mean ucd and uci
took more oos
anyone that wants to do business should know ts
last year
Penn State has a legit engineering program. So does VT.
im chill with virgina tech
Honestly I was down for Penn state if I didnβt get into this school or Purdue.
ts π
yall think I should apply to penn state rolling rn
so yeah i searched it up and it is indeed about 50% oos student
i am surprised
i have like two real option rn
yes
money hunger
sadly
idk what they fuck bro
like tax money goes to them
what more do they wnat
π
are you international? i applied aerospace and i got deferred/rejected from all until now π¦
domestic
they are cali
ohh
Oh Cali is cooked
i might do it its just 60 bucks for a very low chance to get in cause spots are filled up
bay area too
π Iβm from Cali too
so
SAME
π
just apply bro
Iβm from Bay Area
do you know gunn mfs
I applied every Oos
i know irvington kids
Almost every college I did was Oos
