Anyone attending college should not be weak-willed nor ill determined. Attend UIUC if you have not only the ability to regulate yourself, but a innate desire towards learning and fun! There are limitless things to do, to see, to expereince, to enjoy. An outgoing personality or communication problems isn't something that matters at UIUC; just by attending and walking this path, you will be bounded to find a place where you belong.

The perfect person for this school is someone who is looking for excitement and challenges and strives by always having something to do. A student at UIUC should be able to manage his/her time wisely

Because of the huge diversity when it comes to the majors offered at UIUC, there is a major for everyone here. Engineering is a big deal here and our College of Agriculture is one of the best in the country, so if you're interesting in either of those career paths, UIUC is especially a good idea. I wouldn't recommend anyone who doesn't like to be around people, as the student population alone is around 40,000. This is not a small school. Big 10!

The person should be cool so I could hang out with them, but willing to try hard because it's all about effort not so much skill.

Those students that perform above average in high school would be a good fit for this school. I believe the average ACT score of students here is between 26 and 28. It is definitely more competitive for certain majors. Students willing to work hard while enjoying a traditional college experience should attend this school.

The beautiful thing about U of I is that its size accomodates all sorts of cultures, languages, and beliefs. It is truly a place where one can examine who they are and who they want to become. If you are a person with academic ability, artistic ability, athletic ability, or any unique quality about you, it will be possible to find friends who suit you, teachers who accomodate you, and an institution designed to help you succeed.
Alia
Someone who is planning to attend UIUC should be prepared for/comfortable with a very large campus!
Courtney
Anyone can attend this school, but if you do you should have a strong determination and will power to stay focused in class and work hard. This is a wonderful school academically, but can also be a fun school. You should know how to handle the two and priortize efficiently.
Betsy
The kind of person who should attend this school is one who does not mind large groups of people and who is open to change. No matter what background a student comes from, the University of Illinois is bound to change it. The student should be open to change and diversity.
John
Someone who likes lecture halls, being part of a crowd, and not afraid to think and act outside of their comfort zone with new people.
