I highly recommend UIUC. I grew up there, worked there, and took a CS course there for fun. However, I wouldn't reject small schools outright. A strong liberal arts college will open your eyes to lots of opportunities and you'll definitely have a more personal relationship with the faculty. Even at schools like UIUC, you'll feel like a small fish in a big pond, and trying to make sense of it all may be overwhelming.
- tsally 16y agoI only reject small schools when it comes to technical disciplines like CS. Size and funding make all the difference when it comes to the courses offered and undergraduate research opportunities. I actually prefer small, liberal arts schools for all other types of education. :)
