The short version.
UIChicago turns course history, professor signals, and campus information into tools that are easier to use.
Student-built and unofficial. We show missing data instead of filling the gaps with guesses.
Where the information comes from
We combine imported UIC course and grade history, professor reviews and matches, plus public campus information used by Sparky.
How course numbers work
Every percentage names its denominator. If there are no usable outcomes, the page shows N/A.
- Average GPA
- Calculated from the available A–F letter grades.
- C or better
- A, B, and C divided by all A–F outcomes.
- D or better
- A through D divided by all A–F outcomes.
- Withdrawal rate
- W divided by A–F plus W outcomes.
Ratings and AI need context
Professor pages
Ratings, review count, department rank, and course history belong together. A high score with a tiny sample is a weaker signal.
Sparky
Sparky connects the available evidence into a quick answer. Use the linked course and professor pages when you want the details behind it.
When to check UIC directly
Confirm deadlines, tuition and bills, degree requirements, immigration rules, and other policy decisions with an official UIC source.
UIChicago helps you explore. Official UIC pages make the final call.
