UIC is best known for its position as one of the top research universities in the nation. It also has highly ranked programs as well, especially for the professional programs. While UIC may look like an easy school, do not be fooled. It may be easy to get accepted, but you have to work hard to graduate. Many students end up transferring out of UIC because of its tough and fast paced curriculum, so take on the challenge it presents to you.
