Alright

lone ginkgo
#

Oh hell no

glad spade
#

Well I've toured GT

#

Went to Chicago

#

Didn't like it

lone ginkgo
#

It was 73k total last year

glad spade
#

Assuming Illinois is homogenous

lone ginkgo
#

Between RD and EA

glad spade
#

Then I won't like UIUC

lone ginkgo
#

No UIUC is much smaller

#

Not like Chicago at all

glad spade
#

Oh

#

I'm from Florida 😭

lone ginkgo
#

@tender nymph UIUC gets less applicants than purdue

tender nymph
#

i would’ve expected uiuc to get more apps than purdue

lone ginkgo
#

purdue is like 90k total this year

#

UIUC is prob 80

#

with 55-60k EA

#

my guess is 25k accepted, 5k defer, 30k rejected

#

yeah and it went up from like 65 to 73 last year

#

so id assume 80-83k max

tired basin
#

does defer favor instate?

tender nymph
#

a lot bigger

tender nymph
lone ginkgo
#

well

#

67% of UIUC acceptances are in state

#

33% are OOS and Intl

#

so

tender nymph
#

isn’t it more like 56-57% now

lone ginkgo
#

oh when I went to a visit i think they said 64-67 ish

tired basin
#

they should make it higher for il

rancid quarry
#

iirc yeh, even worse than intl

#

makes sense i guess

tired basin
#

whats the difference

lone ginkgo
#

its prob gonna be 900 - 1100 in state deferral acceptances, 300 - 500 OOS and 300 - 500 Intl

#

isnt intl same price as oos??

#

or similar

#

I mean its like pretty similar price wise

lone ginkgo
tired basin
#

were you also deferred?

#

@lone ginkgo

lone ginkgo
tired basin
#

thats pretty rare i think

lone ginkgo
#

They don’t mass defer so there’s still a a shot but idk

#

Oh lord

#

@tired basin

ruby kindle
#

say ong

oak kindle
ruby kindle
#

dang

#

also

#

i’ve been meaning to ask

#

why do people apply pure cs to uiuc

#

instead of cs + x

teal palm
rare berry
#

they ball

ruby kindle
oak kindle
#

registration is easier + you take more CS courses

#

meh

#

I dont agree necessarily

teal palm
#

😠

oak kindle
#

like on paper you will

#

but you need to split your time between X and the CS major

#

as opposed to dedicating all on the CS side

teal palm
#

hell yeah

ruby kindle
#

not sure man the difference in median salary is like 10k between cs + math and pure cs which i think can be explained by cs+math people doing more academia/research

#

after college

oak kindle
#

median salary is bullshit

ruby kindle
#

but i cud just be coping as well

ruby kindle
lone ginkgo
#

I won’t hold out any hope

oak kindle
#

median salary means nothing

#

its an optional survey you can lie on

rare berry
#

ONE HUNDRED MILLION

ruby kindle
#

dang

#

i mean

#

tbh

#

i wanted a math major anyways

#

so i’m not bummed

#

but this is more imposter syndrome

rare berry
#

u got in for matH/

oak kindle
#

because you got cs + x?

#

cs + math?

rare berry
#

cs+math is basically cs

oak kindle
#

why would you get imposter syndrome from that its still impressive

ruby kindle
ruby kindle
oak kindle
#

thats a dumb mindset no offense

#

who cares how easy it is to get into

#

its not easy at all first off

#

B. ratings are stupid

ruby kindle
#

yea that’s true

oak kindle
#

youre still going to UIUC for a CS degree, regardless of if its pure or cs + crop science

ruby kindle
#

it’s chill i can’t go to uiuc anyways

#

crop science?

#

cs + crop science is fire ngl

#

imma swap lowk

oak kindle
#

#

unironically

ruby kindle
#

usc mogs uiuc for business

neat cairn
#

Cost differential would be wild for in-state UIUC compared to out of state USC.

slim trail
#

then usc >>>> uiuc

neat cairn
#

I suppose so, but that's a gigantic difference.

#

Isn't that like a difference of 50 grand?

#

I'd use the saved up 200 to start a business.

Did you not get in as a physics major?

quaint star
#

thas y

neat cairn
#

Physics isn't too hard to get into.

#

I wouldn't be dooming.

quaint star
#

reallly? i assume most cs majors just puyt physics as their second choice, and go witht that

neat cairn
#

I haven't heard many CS majors put Physics as their second.

#

Physics has a comparatively higher acceptance rate compared to the rest of Grainger.

quaint star

UIUC or UVA

#

for engineering

#

cost aside

boreal locust
#

erm

#

uiuc engineering is pretty good so far

#

uva no clue

#

uva campus more pretty and has better weather

torn plinth
#

uiuc engineering is top tiet

#

uva is nowhere in rankings

#

but otherwise

boreal locust
#

u can prob get to the samr places from uva engineering

#

demographics prolly pretty different

#

uiuc leans asian

torn plinth
#

uva all white

boreal locust
#

not all white bu

torn plinth
#

mostly white

boreal locust
#

uva def more pretentious

torn plinth
#

isnt their in state cost over 50k as well

boreal locust
#

idk but that’s crazy

#

uva has less than half the undergrads

torn plinth
boreal locust
#

as well

#

wow

torn plinth
#

53k instate is insnaity

boreal locust
#

uiuc is very diverse intellectually in the sense that there are people who are into whatever you are

torn plinth
#

oos is 96k ☠️

boreal locust
#

BRO WHAT

torn plinth
#

93k same thing

boreal locust
#

erm

#

u of i is a lot less 🙂

torn plinth
#

idaho?

boreal locust
#

the question is what u want in your education and student life

#

and also where u get in rd lol

torn plinth
#

oh yeah

#

uiuc is like 65k i think

#

so like 100 something k cheaper

torn plinth
#

im wondering if theres any point thinking about a lot of my rd schools

boreal locust
#

what are they

torn plinth
#

like theres no way im choosing nyu even if i get in

boreal locust
#

nyu vs here is like

#

qol vs rankings (and extra money$

torn plinth
#

No comparison

boreal locust
#

no like

torn plinth
boreal locust
#

there is a point to be made that like

torn plinth
#

nyc vs uc

#

but still

boreal locust
#

nyu is in a far better location

neat cairn
boreal locust
#

and you probably get the same jobs

torn plinth
#

uiuc will impart a far better engineering

#

education

#

objectively

torn plinth

#

UVA isn't anywhere close. I applied anyway because I'm from Virginia, but got rejected anyway.

torn plinth
boreal locust
#

and they also have great processirs

torn plinth
#

#

theyre in brooklyn

#

quite far away from the main nyu "campus"

boreal locust
#

chill on tandon

#

my grandpa graduated from there in the 60s when they were still called brooklyn tech

torn plinth
#

brook tech is funny

boreal locust
#

lowkey tho the rankings are crazy

#

i love this place but is it better than cmu or princeton engineering

#

would any professor rather work here than there

torn plinth
#

ru in uiuc?

boreal locust
#

yes

#

i love it here dont get me wrong

torn plinth
boreal locust
#

mhm

#

neat cairn
torn plinth
#

princeton orfe on top

neat cairn
neat cairn
#

He did enter the major by mistake, as he submitted his application in the graveyard hours and, while trying to select Mechanical Engineering, checked the wrong box.

crude violet
#

no way

#

i know someone else who did engineering mechanics here

#

he's at GT now doing his PhD

neat cairn

I heard it's more on the theoretical side.
