This college has a fun and lively campus with copious amounts of clubs, athletic opportunities, and areas to explore. The student body contains some of the kindest people I've ever met. The campus itself is very accessible for people with disabilities, and the bus system is perfect for whether you are traveling on or off campus. there's a huge promotion of wellness all across campus, making the environment feel very hospitable. In terms of my major, graphic design, all of the professors I've had are some of the most brilliant artists I've ever met. My peers and I all agree that we have learned such a large amount of new art concepts in what feels like a brief amount of time. This school also contains a massive art museum on campus which boasts many different styles of painting, sculpture, etc. As I graphic design major, I would say that UIUC is a wonderful school to attend and take the first steps into adulthood!
I am so grateful for my experiences at Illinois. The campus is a perfect blend of the, "work hard, play hard" mindset. You are surrounded by people who are extremely dedicated, getting high GPA's while conducting research or securing competitive internships. Seeing this motivates everyone to be the best student they can be, and almost everyone I know is involved in multiple RSO's including professional ones. At the same time, everyone knows how to have fun- in or outside of greek life. There is something to do any night of the week, and people willing to go with you. As a psychology student I would warn that certain majors require careful planning- especially anyone on a pre-health track- as classes fill up quickly or are only offered certain semesters. Classes can be challenging, but they prepare you for upper level courses and are a big part of the reason the school has such a good reputation. As a Big 10 school with actual diversity, Illinois has it all. I-L-L!
I am absolutely loving my time at The University of Illinois. It is my home away from home and I could not have made a better college decision. I am an accounting major, graduating this fall. I will begin my MAS in accounting soon after in the Spring, at the University as well. I think the culture very much reflects the ‘work hard, play hard’ atmosphere, as everyone is not only drawn to their studies, but enjoys a good time. I have had an abundance of great professors along my way, specifically Julie Shapland, who focus on uplifting their students and ensuring they are prepared for the real world following graduation. However, I am not looking too forward to graduating, simply because I love this school so much!
