Congratulations!
Did they make a mistake...where on a waitlist and then got accepted...i remember in an earlier post you said you didnt get in
No, I just emailed them to ask why I didn't get in. My scores were higher than the average in 3 categories of
TEAS reading, grade point average and # of classes completed. My TEAS total was within the average. When they double checked, they left out some of my classwork which lowered me in g.p.a. category and # of core completed classes category. When they recalculated my score, I was in! i knew something was wrong. There was no way I shouldn't have gotten in. This was harder to get into the U of I!
omg...good thing you emailed them!! And good thing you didnt send a nasty email...Mary Beth Luna was complaining about people sending nasty emails...is this your first time applying?

Congrats to happyinillinois! Based on your earlier messages, I will have very similar application info for August. I started to worry after your post that you did not get in. Hopefully I will be admitted for January!
