<p>I dont know which one to choose!
PLease help me make my decision easier...I plan to major in Business (Finance) with a minor in Geology
Also, I want a big a Greek life, big sports scene, and lots of school spirit.
FYI, I got a $7,000 scholarship to IU, and nothing to Illinois as of now.</p>
<p>So which would be better choice?</p>
<p>Sounds like you want Indiana......With your scholarship, IU and U of I are going to be similar in cost....correct?</p>
<p>If the costs are similar, I'd pick Illinois</p>
<p>Have you seen both campuses? Personally I'm from IL but I think IU has a much nicer campus.</p>
<p>I live down here in Texas. Soo OOS tuition, which is pretty steep at Illinois after the rise this year.
In terms of cost/year for me (scholarships included):
IU- approx. $20,000
Illinois: approx. $32,000</p>
<p>If you're OOS for both, choose IU, as they'll give you a scholarship and save you $48K. Really no difference in IU business and Illinois business, IU may be a bit better actually.</p>
<p>If you are OOS and getting the scholarship at Indiana, I'd say go there. If you were in-state from Illinois, then I'd say go there. The schools aren't that much different--and IU has the nicer campus and better city environment. Going to Illinois would probably only be preferable if you were an accounting or chemical engineering major.</p>
<p>P.S. I have a friend who is a chemical engineering major from Illinois--but came out and went to work for Google. She has been there 4 years now.</p>
<p>Here's the rundown on why you should come to IU. Being from Illinois, I have a lot of friends that go to Illinois, and many are in business. </p>
<p>If you have the opportunity to be a direct admit at IU, you'll likely also get $7,000 faculty award and maybe more from Hutton. At IU you take business classes right away, especially if you are a direct admit.</p>
<p>At Illinois, I have a friend who's a business major and this semester he is taking ZERO business classes. Last semester I think he had one or two. That's not to say Illinois is a bad program, because it isn't, especially for accounting.</p>
<p>Also, for me, with scholarships, IU and U of I are actually pretty close in price. Yes, IU is a little higher, but in the end it isn't that big of a difference.</p>
