Guys, I’m really trying to figure out where I should transfer but I’m not sure what my best option is. I’ve been accepted to both University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and University of Iowa for next semester. At Iowa, I would major in business whereas at Illinois I would have to find something else and minor in business. I’m partial to Illinois as it is in-state and I love the school, but at Iowa I would have the security of a business major. Which degree would I be better off with?
I’m a senior and I’ll be going to Iowa next year so I’m familiar with the whole direct admit process (I fell short 1 pt on act) for Iowas bschool. I would just say it’s a huge achievement and great opportunity, and I wouldn’t let that go. You’re assured to be a business major, doing what u want to do, and you’re guaranteed to get a great job in business after graduating. Just because you go to Illinois doesn’t mean much unless you’re in that business major…I would say a business degree at Iowa easily beats a non-business degree at U of I
If you are serious about a business major, and you can afford U of IA, then go there.
If U of IA is out of your budget, and you can find an appropriate major at U of IL, then go there.
