The professors are great! They are very accommodating and always willing to help. They are also very educated on the topics they teach making learning more interesting.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
The students here are all really nice. I live in the on-campus town homes and they are so nice! Living on campus is a great way to meet new friends, making everything so much more fun here. The campus throws so many different events that there is always something to do.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
It is the cheapest of the University of Illinois campuses, and yet you still get the U of I education.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I would look into multiple schools and start in high school. People tend to wait when looking at schools and that can cause a rushed decision that you may regret. So, really investigate everything about the campus and choose a school based upon which can really fulfill your needs and/or wants. Also, if you end up choosing UIS, or any campus for that matter, I would recommend getting involved on campus in either sports or organizations. It makes things more fun and it's a great way to meet people.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
I would recommend this school to anyone who wants to attend a smaller school, but still get a great education. The other University of Illinois campuses are much bigger, and here in Springfield you get much more one on one time since there are not as many people in classes. So, it is a really good school for those who may need a little more attention and who like learning in a smaller classroom environment.
