<p>I’m a graduating senior and my plan is to transfer to UIUC as a junior for CompE but, after seeing some threads from the past, it is extremely competitive. Really I just need some advice to what safety schools are near or at the same caliber for engineering because from the looks of it, having a 4.0 college GPA can’t guarantee my admission (can it?).</p>
<p>Extra info:
I live in Chicago, IL and I’m a first-generation student. The reason why I want to transfer as a junior is because of my HS stats, which are a joke. I’m a little worried about transferring out-of-state (if it’s necessary) because of the price tags for out-of-state students which I probably won’t be able to afford.</p>
<p>Any advice helps!</p>
