University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Top Questions

Some one who has a good grasp on a balanced life between school, work, friends, and family. Academics are very important, but social life here is just as vibrant.

Someone who is willing to schedule their time and apply themselves in classes. There is a lot of partying on campus but you don't need to drink or party to have a good time on the weekends.

It seems like if you are from the suburbs of Chicago you are right at home

Someone who likes big schools and can make friends easily.

A person who wants to broaden his or her horizons and try new things would fit in perfectly at the U of I. A student is allowed to recreate themselves when they go to college, and the U of I offers so many different tools to do so. With so many people, organizations, and majors, students have so many opportunities to do anything that they please.

Anyone

A student that has good organizational skills and their priorities straight; one who wants to be eligible for great career opportunities.

Someone who isn't scared of large classes mixed in with smaller discussion. Someone who is willing to put effort into their acadmeics. Someone interested in research, engineering, agriculture, or business. Someone interested in a fraternity or sorority or any other club/extra curricular activity.

A working driven person. You have to want to work hard and excel. You should also be ready to party, because if you don't you'll be at home with the foreign Korean students (completely the truth). And they won't let you hang out most of the time, because they don't like people very much...or so i've heard. I really feel that you shouldwant to be social, or get ready to be an engineering nerd (like my own sister) who never sees daylight

Anyone that wants go get the best bang for their buck. University of Illinois has some of the best programs to compete with other schools. Generally, I would say anyone looking to do Business or Engineering should look even more into UIUC. It is a great place for everyone that likes to be social and still get a quality education.
