    Check the place out before you come. It's not for everyone and but has a small-town university town vibe. The Greek life is pretty weak and we only have a few fraternities and sororities. read full review

    I am a current student at SIUC this is my second year here. I'm majoring in Engineering and while attending siuc, i have been able to focus in more on my major as well getting to know my limitations and how independent I am. The people i met here are fun and outgoing and are becoming to be my best friends here. The teachers are good but some teachers do need that extra mile, meaning you have to work with them and let them know what you are here for and u don't plan on wasting any time. read full review
