On a scale of 1-10, I would give Eastern a 10. I say 9 because it feel just like home and it's not hard to adjust there. Everybody is nice and friendly and the class size is a low ratio.

EIU has become my home away form home. I get a great education with educators who care about me and help inside and outside of the classroom. EIU has proven to be one of the best decisions I have made in my adult life so far.

Eastern Illinois is very diverse and has many programs that anyone can join. Eastern was a great first college experience. They have a wide variety of classes to choose from.

Seems suitable for my needs. Looks nice and Illinois seems cool.

I'm extremely disappointed by Eastern. So far out of the 10 professors I've had, about 4 have been good. The rest are unhelpful, unclear, constantly late, and don't seem to have a master on their subject.

Eastern Illinois has some very helpful teachers who are willing to help you and make sure you pass their class. The college itself is a lot like high school and a very small environment. You have to join clubs and be outgoing to make sure you get the full college experience, or you will feel like you never left high school.

This will be my 1st year at EIU, but from visiting their campus, I have already realized that I am going to love it there. I have already met some of the teachers from their church/worship center. I would love to be a part of that as well. Besides that, you'll love it.

It is a good school overall. Most of the people are friendly and there is never a dull moment down in Charleston. The academics aren't the best, but they're not the worst, either.

It is a very good school. My professors have been great, and helpful. Overall it is a nice institution, and welcoming environment.

I love that there is a small campus. There are many different diverse students that I can meet and get to know. I can easily meet anyone, because the people are so nice here.
