Wait List Acceptance Rate

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has seen a wait list acceptance rate of 1.8% for the application year 2024, with 56 out of 3,073 applicants being admitted. Historical trends reveal fluctuating acceptance rates, with the Class of 2023 also at 1.8%, while the Class of 2022 had a much higher acceptance rate of 18.7%. The years preceding these show even greater variability, including a 33.8% acceptance rate for the Class of 2019, indicating a significant decline in recent years. Such fluctuations underline the unpredictability of the wait list outcomes at the university.
