What kind of person should not attend University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign?

Mai

a lazy, unsocial student or someone who is extremely quiet and inhibited.

Alessandra

Someone who feels the need to be treated as an individual - I am thinking the artsy and creative people who need more advice and guidance for their careers should look else where. This is not to say we don't have a good fine arts faculty, but the suppor that they will be looking for outside of the classroom from their peers just won't be there.

Shelby

I don't think there is a "kind" of person that shouldn't attend the University of Illinois. Rather, I believe that before entering the University, he or she should make sure their will to learn is strong, and their want to change the world is an active thought. If he or she doesn't have these qualities, they should rethink their decision to attend, or change the way they view higher education.

Danielle

An unmotivated individual who lacks personal and professional dedication should not attend University of Illinois. Someone who does not want to be intellectually challenged should not apply, in addition to those with absolutely no school spirit. A person who absolutely cannot learn in a large classroom may not want to attend this school, or those who cannot manage their time. If you do not enjoy combining a high quality education with valuable memories with new friends, then by all means, this school is not for you.

Lauren

If you are a city person and you want an urban experience, DON'T go here. This school is campus life to the fullest. Everyone here is attending school, no matter how old/young they look. You should be ready for football tailgating, basketball games, random parties on the quad as well as a truly great campus experience.

Michelle

Someone who needs constant stimulation from a big city. It is in the middle of illinois and there isn't much around outside of campus. Campus life is very exciting and there is never a dull moment but it is very campus-y.

Maggie

I think that the University of Illinois really has something to offer every single person that attends. The college is not for someone who is used to being handed an answer to problems, the curriculum and way of life are meant for self discovery, and require a lot of self discipline. But I believe that this is something very valuable that each person has the ability to learn while attending the university.

Alex

A person who should not attend this school is a person with no motives or does not care about school because he/she does not pay for it. Someone who parties all the time and can not prioritize.

alicia

A person that is not focused, motivated, dedicated and hard-working as one will most likely not succeed.

Jose

People who are not motivated or have no idea what they would like to do in the future should not attend this school.
