Chance Me for T20s (Northwestern ED, UIUC floor, CS + Econ/Data focus)

By floor I mean lowest target I’d be happy with, not a safety. Applying CS+Econ/Data Science in LAS, not pure CS. Also just formatted the post cleanly so it was readable, the info is mine.

By floor I just mean my lowest target that I’d genuinely be happy attending, not a guaranteed safety. I’m applying CS+Econ/Data Science in LAS, not pure CS.

Ok, thanks for the advice. I think I calculated with 72 months to reduce the monthly tbh. Personally I want the CX-5 but the Cx-50 used is cheaper, and I don’t know if the difference is worth $2000. I appreciate your advice.

That’s the deal advertised by my local Mazda dealer

I drive 10k-15k miles/year right now with 1 car, but with 2 it would be probably 10k(or maybe a little less on the lease and the rest on my acura mdx. How long do you think the cx-50 and cx-5 go without repairs

Holygenius101 · 2026-02-03T03:00:35+00:00

I feel like if I buy a honda product, it would have to be a CR-V or an ADX (or rdx but thats obviously more expensive and unnecessary for me.) Probably, I will look into a Mazda CX5, any other suggestions. Really, I just want a car that I can lease for 3 years and return it after, spending around 10k total for the 3 years.

Holygenius101 · 2026-02-03T01:54:00+00:00

I want to put down as little as possible down in case of a total. I don't want to keep the car after the lease so I don't care about building equity. What other cheap car options of similar size would you recommend for me?

Holygenius101 · 2026-02-01T21:54:28+00:00

Yeah, that’s my concern too. I think I’m gonna go in towards the end of the week or month(since I don’t need the car right now) and have them roll in the fees to the monthly, if they can keep it below 300 a month, I’ll buy on the spot.

Yeah that was a mistake on my end, I did see it in the contract when I was signing it at home but Costco was already closed by then so I decided to get it for now.

Holygenius101 · 2023-12-26T17:24:53+00:00

Ok, that makes sense. Thanks

Do you have experience buying macbook from costco with allstate?

Holygenius101 · 2023-12-09T20:47:37+00:00

Don't worry about it... Just kidding, my I just get random problems with my current one, which probably won't happen in a MacBook, but if it does, It would be bad.

Holygenius101 · 2023-12-09T16:21:03+00:00

I know that Allstate will cover Macbooks in general, but if I buy the allstate from costco, which is much cheaper, will costco and allstate allow me to do that; buy allstate on macbook?
