Review of Eastern Illinois University

from Chicago, IL

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

The instructors aren't strangers to the students out here; they help A LOT. Lots of office hours. Lots of help outside of class, along with extra practice, etc.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

There are so many extracurricular activities and volunteer opportunities, especially within the residence halls. The students basically run the campus with all of the leadership positions and jobs given to us.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Don't have to pay for our textbooks - we can rent them for an easy $9.99/credit hour. So, for 15 hours, you pay less than $200. It's an amazing deal. Plus, tuition is pretty cheap for the quality of education you get here.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Definitely think about making EIU one of your college choices. You won't regret it. I never will.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Education majors, Student Affairs majors, Business majors
