    ISU is an absolutely awesome school. Elite athletic teams and facilities, opportunities through RSO's, beautiful campus, various places to eat, the list goes on. The university is always striving to get students involved and provide things to do. BloNo is a perfect college town and you don't need a car if you live close to campus. ISU is the place to be! ...Continue reading

Some of he teachers are bad, some are fantastic. The campus is BEAUTIFUL! The location is central Illinois, so expect nothing more. There are so many resident student organizations.

    I should start by saying I went to U of Iowa for a semester so if you're looking at ISU and other bigger schools then my review compares them fairly well. Academic counselors are crappy. I never found a job with my degree. Sometimes all you ever feel like is a number and not like you are important. However, I met some amazing people that will be friends for life. Bar/club life is amazing. The strong points are its clubs, social atmosphere and great professors. But the food in the two dining centers is average at best most of the time and the Wi-Fi is quite weak, I would say ISU is a good average school. ...Continue reading

    If you're going for Education or Business, I think this school is a great choice. You may feel like a mindless sheep going here herded in with the rest. ISU doesn't care about you.

    Great campus with excellent professors who do what they need to do to get you graduated and find a job. It's not as diverse here as you would think, but it's still okay. A lot of the classes here are awesome. I like Tri better than Watterson and HewettManchester, but a lot of people prefer one of the other ones. Just come and visit to see if you will actually like it here. :) The cops are annoying and rude and out to get the students but theres still a lot going on. It's a large school but all the classes are located in one place and campus is pretty compact so it feels smaller. Overall it's a great school ...Continue reading

    If anyone tells you ISU is a party school, they're lying. These have been the dullest four years of my life, even though I have made some great friends. The quality of education has been lacking and the job opportunities brought by the name of the school are not good. This is more of a glorified community college. The faculty is greatly lacking in teaching as well. ...Continue reading

    If you live to party, Illinois State University isn't for you unless you're an expert at drunkenly dodging campus police. It's not a flashy campus or a fun filled greek community.

Otherwise, be prepared to pay out the nose for underage drinking tickets. In all other categories, ISU is a good school, but it's not a great one. ...Continue reading

    A lot of opportunity for businesses (state farm, country, etc.) The business school is really good. I have met many people that will probably be life long friends. The majority of the faculty was nice and genuinely wanted to help you learn. Campus dining left something to be desired and the spoiled suburb kids who think they are entitled because their family is rich can get tiresome. It's small enough to be convient and large enough to give you that university feel. The grounds are gorgeous and roomy. There is always something to do and clubs like the Indy-pende service dog organization( formerly ISU service dogs) are amazing. ...Continue reading

    ISU is an absolutely awesome school. Elite athletic teams and facilities, opportunities through RSO's, beautiful campus, various places to eat, the list goes on. The university is always striving to get students involved and provide things to do. BloNo is a perfect college town and you don't need a car if you live close to campus. ISU is the place to be! ...Continue reading

    I should start by saying I went to U of Iowa for a semester so if you're looking at ISU and other bigger schools then my review compares them fairly well. Academic counselors are crappy. I never found a job with my degree. Sometimes all you ever feel like is a number and not like you are important. However, I met some amazing people that will be friends for life. Bar/club life is amazing. The strong points are its clubs, social atmosphere and great professors. But the food in the two dining centers is average at best most of the time and the Wi-Fi is quite weak, I would say ISU is a good average school. ...Continue reading

Just come and visit to see if you will actually like it here. :) The cops are annoying and rude and out to get the students but theres still a lot going on.

    A lot of opportunity for businesses (state farm, country, etc.) The business school is really good. I have met many people that will probably be life long friends. The majority of the faculty was nice and genuinely wanted to help you learn. Campus dining left something to be desired and the spoiled suburb kids who think they are entitled because their family is rich can get tiresome. It's small enough to be convient and large enough to give you that university feel. The grounds are gorgeous and roomy. There is always something to do and clubs like the Indy-pende service dog organization( formerly ISU service dogs) are amazing. ...Continue reading
