[@anirudhiyer6599]

[@ShirishGee]

[@mattc6652]

What gpa(weighted or non weighted), test optional or did u submit scores? P

[@shekharsingh1355]

Congrats Anirudh, i am applying for class of 2027. Need some inputs for CS. How to show AP scores to UIUC since i am doing ISC, i had taken AP tests on my own.

[@anirudhiyer6599]

@@mattc6652 I had a 95.6% GPA and a 1550 SAT. Sorry for the late reply!

[@anirudhiyer6599]

@@shekharsingh1355 I didn’t submit any AP scores in my application, however I can connect you with some friends here in CS who did. In hindsight, I wish I did take the AP exams as my friends who did submit their scores got credit for those courses, so you don’t have to spend time repeating hs physics in college.

Well said abt uiuc, i m going to join the pathobiology in summer 2023

[@koneniyoudhister6542]

Great video! How are the Finance programs at the University? Any idea if they are on par with the engineering programs?

[@ShirishGee]

Thanks for the kind words. UIUC is a better tech school than management in general. It has good programs in Finance and management so you can absolutely apply. Along with UIUC you can explore other schools for finance such as NYU (Stern), UMich (Ross), Duke, Fordham etc.

[@ven41618]

what's a typical range of SAT expected for Engineering, say mechanical Engineering? thx

[@ShirishGee]

About 1400+

[@RabeenaSultanaAnanna]

Does the university require credential evaluation for applying in anthropology?

[@Everything_9]

Thank you so much , but I'm struggling to find how to apply for the spring intake

[@SunithaViswanath]

Hi Shirish, you have explained very well. One of my friend's son got MS in CS in UIUC for Spring 2024. Should he apply for TA or RA now or after joining the college

[@ugonnaumeh2259]

hey I was reading online that the GRE is not a requirement of post graduate admission I don't know how true that is

[@ShirishGee]

The GRE is not a requirement of the Graduate College. However, it may be a program admissions requirement. Visit the program website for specific test score requirements. Some programs like CS is highly competitive and even there it’s not mandatory but recommended

[@ohmagso]

I have a question, what if during my second year of community college I decided to switch my major, and am now working to complete classes that will transfer for this school, if my credits exceed because of my previous classes will that impact my chances?

[@ShirishGee]

Not really, you will only get credit waivers as per the university requirements, so you may have 80 transferrable credits but only 60 gets transferred, that is a possibility.

[@Halah979]

I am 16 and planning on graduating a year early because it is best for me, I have a 4.0 unweighted gpa but only a few honors classes and 2 clubs, my psat scored averaged 1120, and I cannot get into sports due to my personal life and responsibilities, any ideas on what I can improve to get accepted because given my achievements I don’t think it is likely

[@uiuctalkshow]

1. You watch The UIUC Talkshow 2. You apply 3. You get in 4. You continue watching The UIUC Talkshow

[@cherishpatel966]

Gre score is 310 and IELTS is 7 then I need to admission in masters in Structural engineering. Can this is good?

[@ShirishGee]

GRE is decent. Depends on your profile like projects, research papers etc. and your applications.

[@howtoexpert_]

Hello, I want to apply for Ph.D. at illinois, can you please share the statement of purpose you wrote to get accepted?

[@hellohi-mj8ho]

I am in state and had a rough freshman year with 2.8 gpa but ended up improving my grades a lot and got 4.2 junior year, do i have. a chance? Does freshman year weigh me down too much?

[@ShirishGee]

Hi, Don’t worry about it, it happens to a lot of students, the important thing is you have improved your GPA considerably and that’s really good for your applications. Go for it!!

[@timberlylake5986]

[@abhimaansnair5554]

The background music is terrible!

[@ShirishGee]

Sorry you didn't like it. I would be happy if you have any suggestions for better background music!!

[@joehalliday6081]

Now you know you were going to get some clap back about Michigan. That comment was not necessary and created resistance to your message right away. The University of Illinois has many, many programs that Michigan cannot compete with. The Engineering school is more than a 1/2 step above Michigan. But my point is that it was not necessary to make that claim that can be debated. I could run Ann Arbor down but again the point is, leave it out.

[@virajbagga5923]

Do u think I can get in with a 3.8 unweighted and a 1480 flat 1500 super score?

[@ShirishGee]

Academic wise it’s a good profile but you need strong applications. If you can write great essays then yes you can. In case you need any help drop me a message at [e-mail]
