    It is a warm and welcoming school, it is easy to get around and majority of classes are on the quad. Milner is great to study-many floors with comfy couches and chairs.

    I love ISU and I am getting a great education. ISU has a 99% pass rate for students who completed the nursing program and who took the NCLEX exam (exam the certifies you as a registered nurse in Illinois).

    Depending on where you are coming from, it could either be more cheap, or more expensive in this town. But gas is always reasonable!
