You guys do NOT need to panic. If you are good, then you are in. If you are bad, then you are out. Receiving your notification on October or on 12/15 is the same thing.

You’ll have 99% admit possibility if your GPA fails into those categories:

LAS (Above 3.2)
College of Business (Above 3.6)
Engineering (3.7)

Due to affirmative action, if you are in certain group of minority, lower your GPA criteria by 0.2. For example, say if you are an African American and you are applying to College of Business, your bottom line GPA is 3.4.

I am sorry for those people who are not in this reach, but this is the fact. I’ve gone through all this and it’s just not as complicated as you are thinking.

But I do believe UofI is heightening its admission criteria as you can tell they add extra some-what difficult course as their requirements (Such as Calculus II).
