UIC is always filled with life. When it's warm out everyone is outside hanging out at the quad or on the grass. The quad especially always has something going on. One day when I was walking there was just a random obstacle course for students to have fun in. Other days there are fairs or events going on, and there is always live music provided by our DJ! Even when it's not nice outside Student Center East tends to have alot going on. There is always something for you to do. Trust me it's fun.

I brag to my friends about the university's campus life such as the activities, clubs, food courts, fitness center, and the metro area surrounding the campus. The campus has a diverse community. I also tell them about the amazing support that the students get from the faculty. The professors and academic advisors want to ensure our success.

I always brag about how diverse UIC is. I have met many people that are very different from me and I feel that it has made me a more well rounded invididual. UIC is also a very serious research school. This has also taught me many valuable skills for my future.
Additionally, UIC sometimes feels as if the student body is not a cohesive group because many students commute and everyone is so different from one another. I have found though, that his lack of connection actually brings many different people together, which in turn, pulls us all closer together.

I definitely brag the most about its medical program since that is my interest. I talk about how it is hard to get into the program and the requirements for getting in. That it would be much easier for the students attending the school to get in those programs than outsider students.

I tell them about all the amenities the campus offers from the fitness center pool to the student resources building where you can get coached on your resume and interview skills. I also brag about the school being located in the heart of Chicago, the best city in the world. This school is culturally diverse and provides an endless opportunity for developement.

UIC has a beautiful campus. Because of the school's location, UIC allows its students to wander the city of Chicago and enjoy the many things it has to offer. There are always activities to participate in, events to attend, and things to see at UIC.
