[charred gate]

Math &cs

[stark birch]

yall should rescind your apps for cs

[grave flint]

[stark birch]

its over for us all

[viral osprey]

[charred gate]

[charred gate]

Haters

[stark birch]

when they ask for my id

ill tell them

if they continue with the convo

im admitted

If they say, im not even admitted

ill get to know

[viral osprey]

guys i think

[grave flint]

[floral gull]

[viral osprey]

slay

[grave flint]

and mine's like decently strong?

[charred gate]

Do they send out mail before online acceptance

[viral osprey]

i think it’s a scheduled website thing

[charred gate]

Cause maybe there'd be a way to track mail sent to your address

[viral osprey]

where everyone’s result is typed out

it just changes the ui

[floral gull]

[viral osprey]

at the time they choose

[floral gull]

what are u all doing rn

I should watch a movie or smthing

[viral osprey]

i’m at the gym to burn stress 😭

[stark birch]

[charred gate]

Stockfish contributor or smth?

Or your own?

[viral osprey]

[stark birch]

"ec value"

a2cers man

[charred gate]

Doing ec just for college is so sad

[grave flint]

both

[charred gate]

Cool

[viral osprey]

bro i’m saying even if it’s not about apps it’s worthwhile 😭

[gilded lynx]

In EA they released like 30 minutes early

[floral gull]

yeah

[viral osprey]

i asked someone to open my uiuc app for me

cos i’m too scared to do it lol

[floral gull]

ea results not too bad

[stark birch]

im gonna build something in lumber tycoon 2 until then

[mellow edge]

Good luck to all those cs majors who are in the rd round 🙏🙏

[grave flint]

ya

they didn't accept my goated rec letter

😔

[zealous quartz]

rd gon be worse since ea people had priority for competitive majors

[mellow edge]

Are you pure cs

[stark birch]

yeah

how many pure cs get accepted rd

[charred gate]

That includes non cs though right?

[grave flint]

kinda?

what does pure CS mean

[zealous quartz]

2.5% according to the FOIA someone sent

[mellow edge]

Did you do a cs+x or just cs

[grave flint]

oh

uh

[stark birch]

of the cs class or the whole applicant pool

[grave flint]

I think so?

[mellow edge]

What was your major you applied for

[zealous quartz]

pure cs rd

[mellow edge]

It should say

On the portal

I’m guessing it’s pure cs

[viral osprey]

o did u get deferred

[mellow edge]

Good luck brother

[grave flint]

no they just don't accept rec letters?

[mellow edge]

Wait

Did you apply rd or get deferred

[grave flint]

RD

did EA have rec

[mellow edge]

…

[viral osprey]

IH

[mellow edge]

WHY???

[viral osprey]

i thought u meant like

they didn’t accept u aka u got deferred

[floral gull]

no uiuc does not accept recc letters

[viral osprey]

not like they didn’t take recs

idk why i thought that when i literally applied to uiuc

help 💀

[grave flint]

it's fine UW Madison > UIUC

[floral gull]

bro my heart is beating like crazy

[mellow edge]

Uhh

Not for cs

[frail oar]

4pm?

[mellow edge]

Why did you apply rd for cs?!?$

[grave flint]

because I"m dumb

and I'm somewhat confident (20%) I'll scoop up another school

[mellow edge]

rip

[floral gull]

its either 1 more hour or 30 mins

chat

[charred gate]

I did too

[floral gull]

how are we doing

[zealous quartz]

why not cs+x

[uncut pasture]

good luck RDers

[zealous quartz]

it has like a 20% higher ar

[grave flint]

because I love CS too much

[charred gate]

Ea dumb

[viral osprey]

i wish i applied to uiuc cs 😭

[grave flint]

I'd rather get rejected than not study pure cs

[floral gull]

my god is anyone here non cs/eng

😭

[charred gate]

Cause ppl apply for what they actually want to study instead of trying to game the acceptance rates

[frail oar]

im ischool

[mellow edge]

Why tho

Like

[charred gate]

Ea boring

[mellow edge]

There was no restrictions to applying ea

[charred gate]

Lame

[uncut pasture]

there should be another CS+Ling spot open for yall ❤️

actuall

nah

i didnt withdraw yet

🙂

[floral gull]

oh : (

[mellow edge]

Not a very wise choice

[uneven raven]

[uncut pasture]

[uncut pasture]

what happened to john cena

[charred gate]

So rd more fun

[uncut pasture]

😭

[zealous quartz]

a pretty large majority do the latter but ok

[uncut pasture]

that guy was talkin crazy a few weeks earlier

imo

[mellow edge]

We will see

[charred gate]

Then they're being kinda dumb tbh

[uncut pasture]

i think its both ngl

[charred gate]

Like why study something you don't like for 4 years

[floral gull]

specially for uiuc cuz transferring to another major is pain

[charred gate]

For some prestige?

[floral gull]

so no point

[ocean crypt]

me

[floral gull]

choosing a major with higher acceptance rate

[zealous quartz]

it's not unreasonable considering the huge difference

[ocean crypt]

they havent released yet?

[uncut pasture]

like yeah i have a geniune interest in linguistics but i rpolly wouldve switched from CS+Ling to Math&CS

[ocean crypt]

i reloaded a bunch

[zealous quartz]

who said they wouldn't like it?

[drifting sphinx]

dang its coming 5 pm est?

[uncut pasture]

you can switch Xs pretty easily ngl

[charred gate]

Something they prefer less same thing

[viral osprey]

nah

[ocean crypt]

they said 4 est

[zealous quartz]

not the same thing

[viral osprey]

no they said 4 cst

[ocean crypt]

[viral osprey]

[charred gate]

Is accepting waitlist binding or smth or no?

🙏

[charred gate]

I already accepted it now

Ig there's nothing to lose

[viral osprey]

i remember someone in my school last year committed to a school and then the last day

like commit day

[lone ginkgo]

If a waitlist is not binding you might as well join

[viral osprey]

decision day idk

she got into duke

off the waitlist

[trail raptor]

the only "downside" is that it adds another moving part

[uncut walrus]

Bye y'all ✨ 👋

[viral osprey]

and immediately changed it up

and went to duke

[warped vale]

Denied

But got in uchicago

[lone ginkgo]

[lone ginkgo]

😭

[lone ginkgo]

95% of schools is May 1st

[viral osprey]

they’re like all in may right 😭

[compact pond]

yeh went back to check "National College Decision Day, the deadline for students to commit to a college, is May 1. If you're ready to accept your offer, you can do so in myIllini."

[neat edge]

Is waitlist binding?

[dusky python]

WHO pinged

Oh rd applicants

Imagine not getting rejected ea

✨✨

[charred gate]

I think no

[viral osprey]

bro gatech >

[charred gate]

Idid it

[viral osprey]

[dusky python]

Real

[viral osprey]

yay!!

[muted lava]

congratulations!

[coarse grove]

wait what are the chances of getting off the waitlist

does anyone know

[lone ginkgo]

Major dependent

[coarse grove]

business

[wild zealot]

it’s different every year

sometimes it’s 0%

[lone ginkgo]

Harder then

Engineering/CS is probably 0%

[neat edge]

Deferral and then waitlist sucks

[charred gate]

Math + CS is the same?

[viral osprey]

guys if u wouldn’t go what’s the benefit of like

idk

[lone ginkgo]

Hey man at least you got waitlisted

[viral osprey]

can u tell them u won’t go

so that someone who gets waitlisted goes

like

[neat edge]

Fair enough but it's engineering so I most likely won't be getting a seat

[viral osprey]

do u wait for may for that

[trail raptor]

you can decline a waitlist if thats what you mean, yeah

[neat edge]

Probably won't take the waitlist offer

[viral osprey]

no i mean

can u decline an offer

or do u wait

until may

[charred gate]

But why though

[steady adder]

rejected from ee accepted 2nd choice nuclear

[lone ginkgo]

I don’t think it’s binding so you might as well

[charred gate]

Nothing to lose by accepting it

[viral osprey]

bc u want someone to get off the wl?

[silent hazel]

ong

[neat edge]

Ohh, so if I get waitlisted elsewhere I can take that too?

[viral osprey]

i think

[lone ginkgo]

Yeah

[viral osprey]

u can take every waitlist

right?

[neat edge]

Oh

[viral osprey]

idk ik u can take every uc waitlist

[trail raptor]

guys...

[viral osprey]

[lone ginkgo]

Unless it’s a binding waitlist

[viral osprey]

[compact pond]

[wild zealot]

Hey hey hey

[charred gate]

Yeah

[neat edge]

Ooh damn mb

[wild zealot]

SROP

[lone ginkgo]

Sorry but if it’s 56 acceptances off of waitlist it’s not happening

😭

[upper tree]

[charred gate]

Much better chance

[wild zealot]

Oh no i know im not disagreeing i just dont like to hear it

[coarse grove]

[uneven raven]

Time to watch the crashout wave on Reddit

[zealous quartz]

?

[slate socket]

wrong dude😭

ur pfps are similar

mb gang

[zealous quartz]

alg

[eager jasper]

why did i get pinged

[lone ginkgo]

Appeals don’t do shit right

[lone ginkgo]

UIUC RD came out

[little haven]

Check pinned poll

[gleaming crane]

dw aero people who are waitlisted imma give you a spot

[eager jasper]

why ping me

[lone ginkgo]

No it was an @ everyone

That’s why you got pinged too

[sullen dagger]

o

[cold plume]

Bruh I got rejected ea remember

For Purdue still nothing

Purdue

[silent hazel]

ea rejected homiesss 🗣️ 🔥

[lone ginkgo]

I know someone rejected UIUC early but into UMich

It’s a bloodbath this year for most

[charred gate]

Is umich better than uiuc?

[coarse grove]

yes

[charred gate]

But not in us news

[crisp quest]

I would say, generally, UMich is more competitive.

[uneven raven]

I did not expect UIUC math to stomp me

[charred gate]

Ok so I'm cooked for umich as well lol

[lone ginkgo]

UMich is harder to get into for every major other than CS

[charred gate]

Is Waterloo better than uiuc?

[charred gate]

Oh

So for cs uiuc is better?

[lone ginkgo]

I’ve heard Waterloo is a pretty good school

[lone ginkgo]

No just more competitive

UIUC and UMich cs are like number 5 vs number 9

[charred gate]

Ok sure use flowery language

[lone ginkgo]

At that point it’s just personal preference as to which one you think is better

[charred gate]

5>9

Lol

[jade spade]

any issues with the CS+physics combined major if i'm interested in both subjects?

[charred gate]

You get what I'm trying to say

[crisp quest]

What do you mean?

[lone ginkgo]

I mean if you really wanna look at rankings that hard then sure but us news is not a great sources

[rancid quarry]

^

[lone ginkgo]

It’s good for pointing out like tiers for schools tho

[charred gate]

Cs

[lone ginkgo]

In my personal opinion uiuc cs over UMich cs

[jade spade]

like are you lower priority for course registration than those in the only CS or only physics major?

[charred gate]

Is qs better

[crisp quest]

Oh, hmmm, I'm not certain about that . . .

[lone ginkgo]

Don’t think so

Just you take less CS and less physics credits than those majors specifically

So if you wanna take an extra CS course or physics course it’ll be harder for you to get into that one

[quaint zinc]

Congrats everyone

[grave flint]

yo this was definitely a yield

protect

trust

[lone ginkgo]

Yeah definitely man

100%

[rain bay]

what is their oos acceptance rate

[lone ginkgo]

For RD engineering not high at all

[rain bay]

does this count as engineering

i had to select this under liberal arts and sciences

[fiery compass]

last yr

uiuc rd cs

[visual dune]

does uiuc yield protect

[visual dune]

can u check math

[fiery compass]

i dont have math

i only have grainger majors

[visual dune]

oh ok

[rain bay]

thats what im sayin

i couldnt find it under college of engineering

so i had to google it

i aint attending anyway its fine

[little haven]

Erm no

[rare berry]

congrats gang

[zealous quartz]

portal astro was straight bs

shocker!!

[quiet salmon]

Why would u trust it

tf

💀💀

[rare berry]

congrats gang

[zealous quartz]

i literally didn't💀

why else would i give a sarcastic remark

[quiet salmon]

oh

[rare berry]

why rd sm worse than ea

[quiet salmon]

Idk

[zealous quartz]

cause of this prob

[fiery compass]

my friend foia'd them

[quick sedge]

has uiuc been sending emails or should i log into the portal

[fiery compass]

login

bruh

y did they have to make rd so cooked

wtf is wrong with them

[opal shell]

Same with every school this year

[quiet salmon]

U shoulda done ea

[opal shell]

Too many applicants

[quiet salmon]

RD IS ALWAYS harder

[tired basin]

Anyone get in from deferral

[quiet salmon]

nah

[quiet salmon]

I didnt

Waitlisted

[fiery compass]

dawg

[quiet salmon]

Thats better than rd

Is it not

[fiery compass]

that's rd from last year

[quiet salmon]

👺

oh

uiuc was easier last year

[tired basin]

skewed data too

[uneven raven]

Somehow

[quiet salmon]

also its skewed

[uneven raven]

Yeah response his

Bias

[fiery compass]

rd was definitely much harder this year

[quiet salmon]

Yes

[uneven raven]

Losing hope for harder school now

[fiery compass]

high stat ppl getting denied uiuc math has never happened before

[uneven raven]

HAHAHHAHAHA

[rare berry]

[uneven raven]

Before

[fiery compass]

uiuc math was unironically easy af in like 2023

[quiet salmon]

Why ru hahahah ing

💀💀

[opal shell]

What u still waiting on?

[uneven raven]

I got denied math

[quiet salmon]

oh

Thats fine

U have better decisions

[mint mural]

@fiery compass do you have compe stats for 2024

[quiet salmon]

This is js a moment of time

[uneven raven]

CMU, Princeton, MIT, Cornell, HMC, Purdue, Boston U, Stony etc

[quiet salmon]

1 hour in ur whole life

[fiery compass]

https://www.reddit.com/r/UIUC/comments/1flsz0p/grainger_acceptance_rates_by_major_gender/ this guy foia'd it

[uneven raven]

RPI is one I really hope I dont get FUCKED

[fiery compass]

bro whatever it was last year just forget it

it was way more cooked this year especially for rd

[opal shell]

Same boat as u on a couple

[uneven raven]

Cuz housing crisis

[fiery compass]

ea might've been the same

[tired basin]

Rejected after deferral. Instate too

[fiery compass]

ngl i aint getting purdue w after defer

at this rate

[uneven raven]

UIUC Math with 3.9 GPA 720/800🗿

[fiery compass]

ik i was cooked but this is super cooked

[uneven raven]

Gonezo

Should’ve qualified USAMO smh

[fiery compass]

bro unironically

if they run out of seats for a major they just sometimes accept 0 ppl in rd

they did this last year

[opal shell]

Did u apply with test scores?

[tired basin]

Not even second choice

[uneven raven]

Yea

[fiery compass]

like uiuc does not give a fuck

the obscure cs+x majors are easy in ea but impossible in rd

[tired basin]

Goodbye everyone, it was nice 👋

[uneven raven]

🗿

Ok chat we move onto Purdue FYE and GT Math

[fiery compass]

we r ngmi for purdue fye

[floral gull]

I got second choice dude

[uneven raven]

Holy trinity of engineering flagships

[floral gull]

wait holy shit why are there so many rejected

[fiery compass]

my friend going to give me endless shit for not getting uiuc mat sci

[charred gate]

Bro I had something equivalent for my country and still got rejected lol

[fiery compass]

i switched my 2nd major

to mat sci

cuz its ar was like 50%

[uneven raven]

Math?

Or CS + Math?

[charred gate]

For cs though applying

[uneven raven]

I got rejected MATH

[charred gate]

Cs and math

[uneven raven]

Not CS + Math

Straight up Math

[hardy geyser]

hell yeah
