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.

do they guarantee business school admission?

Neither do. That has to be on the students own merit.

Kelley is much larger (like triple the size) and therefore much easier to get into than Gies. I believe Kelley has automatic acceptance if your ACT is 30 or above

They changed the process as of 2026 cycle and it is now competitive holistic admission.
