I’m a senior in high school I’m an Illinois resident. I want to major in Communications and minor in public relations. I love both universities. I got accepted to the University of Iowa. I’m waiting to hear back from the University of Illinois in Champaign. WITHOUT thinking of price, and if I got accepted to the University of Illinois, which school should I attend? I’m in love with both schools.
Also is it possible for me to get accepted to UIUC? I have a 2.8;2.9 GPA with a 20 ACT. I explained in my application how I was sexually abused by one of my teachers junior year with cause my GPA and grades to drop. And I also wrote a good essay. I’m in Student Council, Key Club, and a Journalist and Editor for my school newspaper.
Congrats on getting accepted to UA! UIUC might be hard to get in, but I think you can get in
Which school should I pick if I get accepted?

Wait until you have both in hand before worrying about where to attend.
MarieHolland: You should probably not spend too much time asking strangers about which school you should attend. But since you did, you need to let the process play out. At this point, you don’t even know whether you are in at UIUC. Rankings-wise UIUC is better and it probably is cheaper since it is in state. So I would say UIUC. But if there is a particular aspect or particular program at Iowa that appeals to you, then maybe that would make the difference. Anyway, at this point you are trying to make a decision when you don’t yet have nearly enough information. Find out what UIUC says, see how the numbers look, visit or visit again. Let it play out.
