<p>And I would not be happy going to UIC, EIU, or WIU. I would rather get less aid at Madison (which I got into) and be happy than go to any Illinois public school and be miserable. I wouldn’t care if the tuition were free, I wouldn’t be happy going to school in the middle of a cornfield. I’m okay with UIC but I have seen enough of Chicago for one lifetime and I’d prefer to get away. Plus, I’m going into film so it’s not a good idea to go anywhere that isn’t close to a major media market (Chicago, LA, NYC, Philly, Atlanta…).</p>
