I am a nursing student at Millikin! We have a very high ranked nursing program that is very competitive and provides an excellent education and hands-on learning!
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The only downfall of going to Millikin is that it is in Decatur. The neighborhood isn't that great and neither is the pollution but if you ignore those it's great!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
It is rather expensive being a private school and all, and the nursing program is a bit more costly; however, everything is much nicer here than at Eastern Illinois University (where I attended college my freshman year).
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Don't let the neighborhood and the cost drive you away! They work well with financial packages and have top-notch safety. A smaller campus community has a huge advantage. The professors actually care about their students, you get to know pretty much everyone, and the classes are smaller among other perks!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Those with an interest in nursing
Athletes
Those with an interest in fine arts
Students from smaller high schools
Students who enjoy making a lot of friends
