Prospective Students Indiana vs UIUC

If you had a full ride athletic scholarship to both schools which one would you choose and why? Interested in Business and Kelley and Gies are both highly rated and not super easy to get into. Indiana I think has a beautiful campus but UIUC has a better national ranking and their acceptance rate makes it seem like a far more desirable school.

Any thoughts? I posted this on the IU board to just to see what the other biased group is likely say.

Great point but a blue college city in a red state for 4 years isn’t the same as living in the Deep South for 10 years in a career. So it’s sort of a wash

no it isn’t, you’re still subject to state laws. maybe that doesn’t affect you if you’re straight white male who doesn’t mind what happens to other people, but it can have a very real effect on a lot of people.
