I'm kinda curious about UIUC's yield rate, like what percentage of students accepted by UIUC end up enrolling? Is it a big difference compared to other universities?
UIUC (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign) has a yield rate of around 28%. The yield rate may vary slightly from year to year, but this should give you a general idea.
Compared to other universities, the UIUC yield rate is somewhat average. For example, state flagship universities tend to have yield rates ranging from 35% to 60%. However, if you compare UIUC to the Ivy League schools or other highly selective universities, their yield rates are usually much higher, often exceeding 75%.
Keep in mind that yield rates are only one factor to consider when evaluating a school. While they can give you a general sense of how enthusiastic and loyal the student body is, it's more important to focus on elements like academic programs, campus culture, financial aid offerings, and other factors that matter most to you personally when choosing a college. Best of luck with your search!
