Did you lead your football team to a State Championship? Do you have a 96% free throw percentage? Did you compete on the US Olympic Team? Because with a 24 on the ACT and a GPA of 3.0, that’s what it takes to get into Champaign.

Don’t waste your time getting into Engineering. They will only take a 27 if you graduate at the top of your class. In fact, the ACT range for the middle half of the Engineering class was 30-32, and were in the top 12% of their classes. You would need 6 more points on the ACT to reach this mark. U of I looks at a COMBINATION of class rank and ACT scores – with this in mind, you can assume that the person who got BELOW a 30 on the ACT was ABOVE the 88 percentile in their graduating class. I doubt that a 3.0 GPA puts you near the top 10% of your class. You will seldom see someone below BOTH ranges… unless they possess artistic talent or are on a sports scholarship.

Even if you DO get in, you will be at the VERY bottom of your class. You will probably struggle for a while, and cannot expect to pull in the grades that will allow you to transfer to an engineering program later.

Sorry. You are not U of I Engineering Material. However, by all means, pursue a degree in this field. Illinois has a great set of public universities in addition to Champaign, and a large number of private schools as well. UIC and Illinois Institute of Technology will offer engineering degrees, and you can always attend U of I for a Masters if you can prove yourself at another program. You have not proven yourself academically yet.

Overall at UIUC the middle 50% of students have ACT scores of 27-31. 20% of students there have 23-26, which is where you are. However it is more difficult to get into their engineering program (the middle 50% is 30-32) – look at this site and scroll all the way down http://www.oar.uiuc.edu/future/apply/requirements_freshman.html

So it is possible for you to get in, but if you are worried about your ACT just retake it this fall.
